"Life is like a
camera, just FOCUS on what's important and CAPTURE the good times, DEVELOP from
the negatives and if things don't work out, just take another SHOT”- Anonymous
This is one brilliant
quote that possesses the magnetic muscle to lure my attention throughout the
seasons. It keeps me moving always.
Last Friday, on acceptance
of my toothless research paper, I was invited for an oral presentation at the 9th Siam Physics Conference. This is an annual event convened in Thailand to
crossbreed the professional ideas between the scientists, researchers, teachers
and students from both national and international zones. Held at the Rajamangala University of Technology
Isan at Nathon Ratchasima (North-East of Thailand) this year, it was 8 hours ride by train from my
university.
The long journey to a completely
new place was tiring and terrible though. And travelling the whole night has
burnt all the calories of my enthusiasm and liveliness to a certain degree. But even at the time when the whole world has slept,
one reason kept my nerve awake: A chance to present my paper in the presence of
top-notch gangs of physicists.

The 3 days conference kept
on adding new names into my memory. I met people from all walks of life and
from every rung of the careers. I captured those beautiful moments that kept on
fleeting. I became friends with some powerful keynote speakers, professors, international
students and hosts. The yield of happiness and satisfaction I derived from
my toothless paper was beyond compare because I could capture the good times
within a shorter span of my life there.

Wow...I am so happy for you...very well done!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you so much for sharing this amazing journey with us...these photos are fabulous...I could almost imagine I was there too!
I so enjoyed reading this.:)
Dear Sir Tshewang,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the compliments. Yup, I had a very rich and enriching experience by participating in such a big professional conference. I got to speak something that I did. I will sent my paper although, it is a very small survey paper. But, I enjoyed because I became the first person to have presented something int eh first semester itself. Thank you.
Dear Ms. Ygraine,
ReplyDeleteThere is always a reason for me to write and the reason is you, the most considerate person who never regrets for reading my gibberish pages.
It has brought me so much of pleasure and satisfaction because I happened to attend such a big conference with so many scientists and physicists. The stay was just amazing and memorable.
Congratulation sir ji. Who won't consider you fortunate for receiving such an opportunity? Regards.
ReplyDeletegreat work, boss.
ReplyDeleteSherab sir,
ReplyDeleteThank you a lot. I was fortunate because I have learned so many things besides some professional business.
Phub,
ReplyDeleteI am in a way grateful to you for reading my article and for revering me as your boss. But, usually, I hate that word 'boss' because I have a terrible stories which suck s my life.
Thank you anyways.
A candle loses nothing to light another candle, this is a beautiful quote. So I hope you could really touch the lives of others with your presentation. I hope to see you doing many such presentation. Good luck, Dumcho!
ReplyDeleteRiku sir,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I agree with your quote but may be it is otherwise this time. I was in fact lighted by the presence of those physics think-tanks. Get associated during such event is marvelous.
Hope I get such kind of chances hereafter too. And thank you for your wishes too. I mean it because you spoke my prayers. Thank you.
I love that first quote about about developing the negatives and taking another shot... this is what we need to do... Thank you for your kind comment ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Ms. Launna.
ReplyDeleteKeep writing on your blog. You write something different and new every day. I really appreciate the way you organize the ideas to capture the audiences. Thank you so much.
