Apart from the very insignificant works
that I do in the office every day, the significant
product I can proudly claim is my ogenstar.com.
More than that, what triggered me here, to blow my own trumpet is when I was greeted this morning by an ‘Acknowledgement email from Dasho Gyem Dorji’ himself.
It is a young site. I started it with
the intention to learn, paid 3500 for the theme with the help of my friend Ugyen.
I had a very little knowledge when I first decided to buy it. I wasn’t even
sure if my decision to blog featuring the ‘celebrities’ is a right niche.
The site is 8 months old now and is in a good shape. It has almost 120 email subscribers. The highest number of the
page visitors it got in a day so far is 9,277. The Facebook page I created for the same blog is quite responsive. It has
almost 2k followers now.
So, this, my blog: ogenstar.com is a thing of joy to an aspirant blogger like me.
The increase in the email subscribers
even by one number in a day is a big achievement for me.
Well, into this journey of maintaining
my own self-hosted blog has given me many reasons to smile and equally enough
reason to be pissed. However, I chose the former to be the content today.
When I wrote the latest post about the ‘Bhutanese Actors and their son (s), I never thought that the post will provoke much
interest among the followers, let alone the characters themselves. But to my
most pleasant surprise, Tashi Pee Dorji; the son of Gyem Dorji (Dasho) has shared the post in few minutes after it is
published. It was such an honor to me because he was considerate enough to appreciate
what I have been doing. The post also earned a huge public interest.
More than that, what triggered me here, to blow my own trumpet is when I was greeted this morning by an ‘Acknowledgement email from Dasho Gyem Dorji’ himself.
Yes, you heard me right. Dasho Gyem Dorji has left me an acknowledgment email.
Can you believe it? I am so proud, because, a person like Gyem Dorji is not a joke. What made me even
more proud is the fact that Dasho has seen and read my blog! Thank you so much
Dasho la.
Well, not to forget, I have few people
like Sherab Tenzin and Ugyen Dorji, who always reboots my aspirations to not to
leave the blog. I am also very much aspired by the beautiful comment left back
by Mr. Norbu Kezang who is an inspiring social writer himself. Thank you so
much. You people keep me going!
^_^. So, my happiness, my ogenstar.com. ^_^.
