It is certainly uncertain
whether I am eligible and qualified to be nominated for the “Very Inspiring Blog Award”.
But the storm of that so-called Rosenthal Effect (positive expectations begets positive
performances) has already taken place due to the fever of this appreciation. This
breeze of inspiration to my amateur blog from a versatile blogger and prolific
writer further sets me to an uphill task of blogging better. Thanks to Ananya. Had
I been given a chance to offer this award, you would have certainly made it to
the list.
Ananya blogs at www.ananyatales.com. She is a qualified
engineer by qualification and Assistant Professor by profession. Currently established
in Seattle in the U.S, she is an Indian by origin. I would not detail much about
her because, with the link above, readers are now just a click away.
Well, as stated in
the rule of this award, let me say 7 points about me.
1. Profession
I am a Physics
teacher based in Kabesa Middle Secondary School under Punakha district in Bhutan.
Currently, I am pursuing my postgraduate studies in Mahidol University,
Thailand.
2. Personality
Characteristically
straight forward and sharp tongue. People who don’t know me in-depth considers
me rude and walled in. Stubborn when I have justified facts and reasons to
fight. Ambitious and determined that I don’t give up to reach my goal.
3. Positive attributes
Resourceful,
observant, dynamic, talkative, humorous, vigilant, hardworking but not
intelligent. I know everything of something but nothing of anything else.
4. Proven Weaknesses
I am very short
tempered, emotional, secretive, possessive, vindictive and independent (prefer
to live my own way).
5. Proliferating Social Circle
I have a large
circle of friends, from low to high. To all I am still the same. For friends who
help me during the times of need, I always stand for them. But for people who stab
me without any realistic reasons based on power, wealth or status, sometimes it makes hard for me to forget and forgive unless those reasons are inevitable, natural or lawfully
authorized. ‘Strangers are, but unmet friends’ to me (read this statement from
one of the blog).
6. Prime Work Ethics
I always prefer to
do same work differently from others. Originality is always given the priority and
simple spellings and grammatical errors (to the best of my knowledge) are never
out of my eagle’s eye. I complete my work before the deadline.
7. Personal Life
Life is never
always the same for all. I don’t complain for not having what others have and don’t
show off for what I have. I believe that information is power, so I always keep
tab on current affairs. I read books based on true stories and replicate those
lessons into the life of my students.

Thank you Damcho sir for the award~ I am committed to continue the rules~ Thank you la~
ReplyDeleteDear Dumcho,
ReplyDeleteI am flattered and I thank you for considering my blog for an award. I must say that I don't participate in awards, though, as I consider my dear readers, followers and kind commenters to be award enough for me. I hope you understand, but I thank you. God bless you. :)
Thank you for the nomination Dumcho... this is very sweet of you:-) ..I liked learning more about you, it's great that you live on your own terms and you are so honest. Forgiveness is more for us then the person we are forgiving... it frees us ;-) .. Have a great week ;-)
ReplyDeleteToken of gratitude for nominating me sir.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the nomination and so glad to learn more about you. As a teacher myself, I always applied the Rosenthal Effect for my students. You say you are hardworking but not intelligent. I'm sure being a physics teacher requires a lot of intelligence.
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear sir. How sweet of you to nominate me! I do appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteInteresting facts about you. I didn't realize you were from Bhutan. I'm an amateur radio operator, and some friends of mine visited your country a few years back on an amateur radio expedition. (We call them DX-peditions.) The things he told me about your country (and its people) made me fall in love with it.
Thank you so much for the nomination, Dumcho...I really do feel so honoured. However, I don't feel able to accept this, as I couldn't possibly choose just 15 other bloggers to nominate. All those wonderful blogs I regularly read - oh it would be so unfair to leave ANY of them out!
ReplyDeleteOh I so hope you won't be offended...:/
It is great to learn more about you though. Saying what you really think is a good way to be: straight-talking is always preferable to saying one thing and meaning another...so never change who you are. You are a really great person.:)
Hey, congrats! Well deserved.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Dumcho for the award, I am honoured that you passed the award to me. Congratulations on your award. Nice getting to know more about you. Feel bad about my delay in thanking you, but I was swamped with my students' assignments and my own writing.
