I finally own this

Its a great feeling. First the domain name, and now the server space. I own it all finally !!

I thank both the persons, one, who bought this domain name for me long back and the other, who hosted my site till recently.

And I dont want to thank the person who helped me buy this space and put the show back on, as I dont think it can ever suffice.

I am loving it….

A humble beginning

For a long time, me and a friend of mine had wished to start an educational portal. But the plan never really took off. Then I got this brilliant idea of using this site as a means to meet my end. This site presented an excellent platform to publish some well written articles by me and my friends.

Today, the first article has finally been posted. Its by my dear friend gunjan and if I get due permission from her I shall put her picture here too :)

For later references, I have specially created a page titled “Articles written” which will in a way provide an index for all the articles ever posted here.

Air Force Schools: A welfare venture

Today we were discussing about the reasons why teachers working in air force schools are not paid according to fifth pay commision rules. Since the august gathering comprised of air force administrators and principals and the head who handles the financial aspect of the air force schools, the discussion was bound to get heated up.

We should not forget, it is not air force’s main task to run schools, its a welfare mission that we have taken up to ensure and provide education wherever we are. It is a choice between providing no education or education. If the school cant pay for teachers, or there are no teachers, I will close the damn school than to charge exhorbitant amount of fees, I dont care. Our aim is to protect the country. Our main goal is to fight war, and we very well do it and we win it too !!

Life’s Ironies

Beginning today, I am conducting a five day workshop for Air force administrative staff from various Air Force schools of Northern Region. I am a product of an Air force school myself and it never struck me once that my own school principal is going to be there too !!

Precious moments

At times small moments of life can give you so much of happiness that is inexplicable in words.

Enjoy every moment of your life and derive happiness out of all petty things and bits that we seem to ignore oh-so-often. Live for each moment and make it special for yourself and for others around you.

Life can be beautiful, only if you care to stop and notice !!

Dukh bhare din beeto re bhaiya… ab sukh aayo re

Finally the biggest hurdle of my M.Ed is over and done with. I have conquered the realm of unknown (thats philosophy you dodo!!) :-P

Everything else should be cakewalk, except for dissertation, my final research thesis. I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that my close associates keep bugging me to study and get over with the rest of the exams ASAP.

5 down 5 more to go… yeah yeah !! :grin:
