"Hostel is the place that you will remember most after you complete your studies and you will feel nostalgic when you remember your life in hostel"
Staying in hostel is much fun, enjoyble and mind-numbing too.It's really fun to be with different kind of people while you spend your life in hostel such as Who talks alot like parrot. Who sleeps as good as pig, Who cracks poor jokes which is funner than Phurpa thinley's joke and so on.
On hearing rising bell when I am in good sleep makes my blood pressure to rise. My hostel room-mates like Phuntsho Tashi, Kuenzang Wangchuk, Thinley Namgay are ever ready to kill early morning plans and early to rise and early to bed is just a myth for those of us but Nidup Tshering wakes-up little early that's also because of his hunger.
Singing, laughing and talking nonsense things is the replacement of television to keep out of bore and Ya most importantly roommate is like my sibling. Sometime in morning we have to stand in a queue for washrooms and have to quarrel with someone who plays tricks on putting their buckets inside without their turns.
Did anyone ask you how your day has gone when you are in hostel?I hardly gets such question until i call my mother at the end of the day. When I call to my parents, the first question that i get is Have you eaten properly? And are you fine and healthy?
No matter how much we hate potato, it is the main vegatable in mess and that KEWA is ever ready to destroy my pleasant mood. But after all I do enjoy eating alot.
I have to buy all my things by myself and that's when i remember how my mother provided me with all that i needed.
Here you learn a lot from the people, about the people and especially You come to know yourself. That is the best part of someone’s hostel life.
I do as much fun with my friends in hostel but there are days when tears roll down thinking of home life. But I feel homely because of Administrations, councillors and friends support.
Thanks You
