Last Day of the CRP workshop...

Last Day of the CRP workshop...

It was on 25th of January, 2012 Wednesday right after the Chungipa Losar, it was declared as closing day of the workshop but we were given one assignment to be done on that day. Most of our friends were from Tashi Yangtse and many of them missed their Losar and also their family for 10 days and they were hurry to go home.

They were quite happy when our resource person frequently making call to NIIT person inquiring about the coming of money and when they response the sign of coming soon and they were kept waiting from morning till 2:30 pm.In the mean time madam was sharing on one of the software on time-tabling (FET) and it was very informative and found useful.

After that our resource person was chatting with her colloquies across the country about the participants payments and it was so funny that all the IT participants across the country were in same mood.

By the time 2:30 pm Madam stood up with her cell in vibration with smiling face saying that 'now i got the message'. That message was about that money deposited in her account. At that time some of our friends were in pants and shirts with carrying bags showed that they were ready to go. When madam exclaimed, 'now we got the money' then one of our participants called Mr.Cheki Gyeltshen (Janshari Principal) shouted and created a noise pollution and spread a laughing gas in the IT room and made all the participants in happy mood.

Then immediately started arranging the DSA for all the participants and started disbursing the payments for all the participants with respect to their distance.

After receiving their payment left the camp with smiling and bit farewell with happy mood.

Sharchopa Losar(Dawa Chung Ngipa Losar)

Sharchopa Losar(Dawa chunipa Losar)
Tomorrow on 24th January,2012 Tuesday is the very special day the eastern people in Bhutan. To them is the most auspicious day in a year because this day is the demarcation for the old year and the new year.
people get warm up for this day a week ago and celebrate for few days.

Women in Radhi Jonla playing Khuru

To mark this day people look for variety of meats Viz; phagsha pa(pork), norsha pa(beef), Ngakam(dry fish), ngalem(wet fish), other fresh vegetables and fruits. They look for varieties because if they get what ever we required in the life on that day will make a phosphorous life of that whole year. If they don't get some on that day shows that they will suffer to get that particular items on that particular year.

To mark the day; people get up early and prepare Thukpa(porridge), Ngaja(Tea), Suja(butter tea) and other snecks popularly known as zaw. They have it by 6 or 7 am and start preparing for lunch. The lunch will be much better than the normal menu. On that day the menu will be rice, pork, beef, chicken, wet fish, dhal etc. Some of the family even look for new cloths to we wore on that day.

Busy selecting the best ones

During the time of lunch; all family members and other relatives will get together, sit in the circle putting all the items in the circle. Start serving for with the eldest in the family and before they start eating the eldest will cite ,"Ya darig ae thamchen zoma shonang phewa, nge songangbu lekpa rang zomega rewa cha, ya... zayo" says that we are very happy that we all could meet together for this losar so hope for next year to meet like this year again.

Our IT course in Rangjung HSS from 16-25/2012

Mrs. Sonam Zangmo (Facilator for CRP workshop)

In the first five days we have learned about the background of the computer and then all the basics about the word, excel, powerpoint and internet. then on the rest of the days we touched on the advanced parts on word, power point, excel and more on internet.
i particularly found that the advanced course was very interesting and was very useful because i could get many new knowledge where i did not here before.
i am quite happy to be get attended in this course. This course will refresh some of us and to some it will give light to this IT world.
Frankly speaking towards the beginning I found it was quite boring and restless for me and only in some lessons
I used to get some new terms where i was using it but without knowing the particular terms. For example, feel handle, office button etc.
But in the advance part it was most of the time clearing my doubts where I was on the eve of asking doubts.
A message to all the teachers in Bhutan to attend this course seriously and never miss it at any course.

My favorite sport is to play archery because it is our national game.
