Is it fair?

When Kinley (name changed) was born her parents cried out of joy and ecstasy. Her parents gave her a colossal love and care making her a complete humane. When she completed her class twelve from one of the schools in Bhutan she qualified for B.Ed (Bachelor in Education) at Paro College of Education. In the year 2011 she entered the heavenly abode with complete hope of transforming herself from a caterpillar to a colourful butterfly. For her to become a proficient and a competent teacher she needs to spend four years in the college. She faced many challenges and murky times to complete her seven semesters (three and half years) but with her determined heart and resolute soul she completed seven semesters without any hurdles.

Out of five modules in the final semester, four modules were exam oriented and one was course work oriented module. She and her other colleagues were enthralled and excited to challenge the final semester of the course, after all she will be a teacher after the eighth semester. For few months Kinley and her colleagues lived their life with academic dust hovering around making them completely involved with the academic works.
Finally on the second week of November, 2014 she appeared her semester end exam and was dissatisfied with some of the modules. When she came out from examination hall she shared to her colleagues that she would be one who will get resit (back paper) in the particular module. Indeed she was precise about her performance because she got resit in one of the module but at the back of her mind she was not anxious because she knew that, as always the college provides resit exam to those who do not qualify. With ocean of hopes and optimism she went to the college to study and appear the resit exam but when she reached there she heard devastating news. She heard that those who didn't qualify the final semester, they have to appear the resit exam one year later. Hearing the news she nearly fainted and called me and shared the upsetting news.
Kinley came with a colourful hope of becoming a beautiful butterfly from a caterpillar but her hope of becoming a butterfly was collided and she need to wait for another year to clear the paper.
My say
My thoughts can be both erroneous but I am sharing what I feel about the story of my colleagues.

I think it is not fair for those individuals who didn’t qualify in their final semester for not giving reseat exam like in other semesters. In other semesters if an individual fails to qualify for next semester he/she is given a reseat examination before next semester begins. Those individual who didn’t qualify for RCSC have to wait for a year and see their friends soaring in the education system.
My dear bloggers what is your say on these issues?

Life after college

Lushly summer and autumn are gone but still the parched cold winter prevails. My exhilarating and thrilling college life has already come to end but still my hope and aspiration of becoming someone is undying, I am left between the life of cocoon and a butterfly. I see many of my bosoms already in service earning and performing their work with dignity and pride.  I am here without work, without income, without strength withering day by day and waiting anxiously for RCSC’s (Royal Civil Service Commission) exam.

In our country there are still great thirsts to be slaked with teacher as the schools are in dire need of teacher but on the other hand RCSC’s commits that the entire teacher graduate will not be taken in the education system. If all the teacher graduates are not taken in then where are the remaining’s going to loiter? I pray to get through RCSC’s exam and pay back to my parents whatever they have invested for 17 years long term as a student.

In the middle of the bridge of life I am swallowing an empty gush of winds and staying in bizarre. Everything appears mundane and humdrum without work and without a title. The only thing I spend my time is to fight with books and enjoy the beauty of learning and the books are keeping me alive.
Life is so tedious without any work and without title.
