Bhutanese Bloggers e-Conference

Thank you Madam Rekha Monger for this initiative. Well, I read about this Bhutanese Bloggers' econference in Passu's blog this morning but I wasn't very sure about taking a dip in this thing. And especially the timing is not really favorable for me as I'm totally lost in the whirlpool of my school's Reading Week activities. But then, when I opened my fb just to let my tired mind find its respite in the silly nothings that my friends post, I found Ngawang sir had tagged me for the same. Much as I wanted to make tiredness an excuse to escape my fingers simply didn't comply with my reluctance. So, here I am answering the questions, as required.

1. Why did you start blogging in the first place? And what’s the story behind your blog title?

I may not qualify as an active Blogger and the things I put in my blog is some silly gibberish things that run through my mind at some silly hours of the day. However, since I do put up some words in my so called blog, I think I shall behave like a blogger and start my story (heheh).

way back in 2009, I came across Nopkin.com and once I registered myself there, I found some kind of a solace. Words seemed to have laid a firm grip on me and each day, all I wanted to do was write, write and write. But not having adequate knowledge on subjects that might qualify me for a thinker I started tinkering with the idea of 'love and romance.' As I took up the role of love seriously I found myself enveloped in a different world of mistrust and mis- judgement. So, then ( Due apologies to Nopkin admins) I removed all my posts from there. I know I was naive and even to some point innocently foolish!

Having chosen to come out of Nopkin made me feel empty. There were words scratching my heart, wounding me to the point that I needed another space to fill in. Luckily, I came across this blogspot.com and I immediately transferred all of my posts from Nopkin.

But having a blog of one's own and writing in that public arena were two different things. Here, I tightened my words ( and it suffocated my inspiration) and hence I found myself writing mostly about my kids and my feelings in general. So, then I decided to call it 'feelings and emotions." All I wanted my blog to hold was my true feelings and emotions felt at the moment I chose to sit down and type.

2. How long have you been blogging? Where are you based?
Like I said, it was way back in 2009. I was in Mongar then and currently I am posting from Bumthang.

3. How do you schedule your blog post? Daily or weekly? Or as and when inspiration strikes you?
I do not follow a regular schedule nor do I make an effort to update it on a regualr basis. There are days when almost forget that I've created something called a blog even and yet! there are days when so many feelings and emotions pour out of my heart that I just cannot do without putting it in words.So, I listen to my heart and pen it down (time allowing, for a full time mother of three and a full time teacher can seldom find time to even think of anything other than my kids and my students).
And few of the readers I've should be forewarned that there cannot be any thing sillier than my posts in this whole blogspere where people think and write. For me, I feel and I put it down and my feelings are nothing special!
4. Does your family and friends know about your blog?
Well, my husband does know about my blog but I don't think he is even remotely interested in the silly emotions I write in this space here. And my Best friends do know I have a blog but FB eats up all of their time so they DO NOT follow my blog. And sadly, I realized none of my family members know that I've a blog.


P.S. Ngawang sir, I took u tagging me seriously and here I am, all done!
