Nangkor
Gathering.
The tradition of Nangkor gathering which was first
introduce by 2009 batch of Nangkor student of CST. It was formally organized in
2012, in the summer semester as a farewell for 2008 batch (in their final
semester) of Nangkor student here in College of Science and Technology when
they are passing out. The trend of gathering continued in 2012, in the winter
semester to welcome the new comers of 2012 batch and in 2013 (summer semester)
as farewell for the founder of Nangkor gathering, the 2009 batch when they are
passing out.
Similarly, we the student of Nangkor in CST, the
followers of the founder of Nangkor gathering never forget the tradition
introduce by 2009 batch. This year, the new comers of Nangkor to CST were two,
Domtu Dorji and Pema Yoezer, the brother of Pema Choden (the member of founder
of Nangkor gathering, the 2009 batch). Of course the number of newcomers is
less but we believe lesser the number more effective in whatever we do with
less mistake. With our little experience in CST for past few years we convey relevant
words to our new comers of Nangkor. The Nangkor gathering for newcomers was
organized by my batch (2011) on 6th August 2013. The changes in
Nangkor gathering this time was in regard to venue. The venue was in Phuntsholing
town. At 7:00 pm we moved from college
to Phuntsholing.
After our arrival, the organizer (3rd
year) started the program. The drinks (soft drinks) were distributed. The
introduction and welcome speech was delivered by our senior (Simple) in our
mother tough (sharchopkha). Then we allow two first year to introduce
themselves. After an hour of exchanging the feeling between us, we the Ex-
Nangkorien, we had dinner. The drinks
(hard drinks) were served as soon we were done with dinner. We moved back to college before the hard
drinks drag us. With few bottles of hard drinks we return to college through
short cut. We could arrive back to college after twice rest on the ways. One at
starting of step from Phuntsholing (above stream) and other at rest place on
the way to CST. We had fun on the way
while we rest. As a token of appreciation by two first years to seniors they
even sung a song while we rest.
We don’t take the path (short cut to Gonpa) but we
take the highway till college from gate of Gonpa. As we planned, we gathered at
heliport and had fun with drinks. We played games and finally we dispersed at
12:30am. The dispersed of gathering remind us the next gathering for farewell
of outgoing Nangkorien of present final year. Let us wait the time to come…..
