To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine... And those who don't.

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, In beer there is freedom, In water there is bacteria. In a number of carefully controlled trials, Scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, At the end of the year we would have absorbed More than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria Found in faeces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.. However, We do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) Because alcohol has to go through a purification process Of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting. Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health. Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, Than to drink water and be full of shit. There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service!

MOVING THOUGHTS

May be god wants us to meet a few wrong person before meeting the fight one so that when we finally meet the right person, we know how to be grateful for that gift. When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don’t see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you’ve ever heard. It’s true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it, but it’s also true that we don’t know what we’ve been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they’ll love you back! Don’t expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn’t, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don’t go for looks; they can deceive. Don’t g

NIIT (Chigphen rigphel Project) Crash Course Tutorial

It all started on 29th January 2013 with two resource persons from Tshenkharla MSS. We were 15, mostly women and only 5 of us were men. The class began when other friends who have already attended were heading home after the PGDE program. 15 of us got stuck here, shivering and feeling the cold wintery wind creeping through the pajamas. Old mates, Sherab Tenzin, Ishor Kumar, Rinchen Lhamo and Yangchen Lhamo are also attending this course. We are trying to have fun despite the cold. Lady luck was not much on our side for we couldn't continue with our course. Announcement was being made that there will be no power supply during the day and will only provide in the evenings. So we had to change the plans to take it in the evening from 5:30 pm to 9:00 pm. As I write this in my blog, I am already feeling the numbness on my fingers because of the cold. My legs down the knees are hit by extreme cold wind. My tummy is rumbling and feeling giddy at times, maybe I am hungry...hahahahaaa..

A Melancholic Wintry Happiness

Chilly melancholic emotions fill the air, As this wintry season came in like a fellow. Frosting my heart of hope in total despair! Grasses on the lawns are now grey and yellow. The cloudless sky above me is Royal Blue and clear And the stream serenely flowed down below… “Splash!” a stone fell from high above into the stream, And my moment of wintry happiness disappeared like a dream.

The Sin

  “Give way! Give way!” shouted the driver as a patient on the stretcher was pulled from the ambulance by few sturdy men, and was rushed to the Emergency Unit at the Mongar Referral Hospital. Everyone in the hospital watched with open mouth as they saw the patient in a horrible state. They saw her eyes and body twitch in uncontrollable convulsion as if possessed like the village shamans. She was in dead pain and foams dripped from the corner of her dark purple lips. Nobody moved a muscle. The hospital unusually became silent for a moment except the screeching of the roller of the stretcher being pushed over the cemented floor inside the EU. After few agonizing hours, the Doctor came outside the EU and told those sturdy men that the patient was put out of danger. The men were glad to hear the news, but were taken aback as they were told that their patient was pregnant. “She is 5 months 3 weeks pregnant,” declared the Doctor. “Pregnant?” the men raised their brows and lo
