Quick Quote: Jasmati’s Experience at the HCC Annual Picnic

HCC Nepal Jasmati

HCC Nepal Jasmati“Picnic is an excursion taken by the family members or friends outside for a refreshment and a reunion. Likewise, this year we planned to go for a family picnic to get ourselves away from the Kathmandu valley for a refreshment. We planned a picnic to go to a famous resort: Norling Resort and Spa. As planned, the picnic became a successful one. We had made a schedule for our departure time, lunchtime, time to take selfies and this was the best part as everyone enjoyed it. The games time, snacks and the dance time were equally rejuvenating and funfilled. The entire Khushi Ghar family enjoyed it to the fullest and had a great experience in the resort.”

Finally the day arrived and we had to arrive at the venue by 3. We rushed to the models and did the final fittings. By that time, Dinesh Uncle, Hira Aunt and Bruce Uncle had arrived. As my sequence was on the 4th we had a huge rush backstage that let me meet them only for a brief minute and we couldn’t even click a picture together. Show started at 7. After the third sequence we had the models change into our designs. Finally, our design was on the runway, and we walked at the end of the sequence with our showstopper, Simpal Kharel. While walking on the runway, there were a huge number of audiences, included; designers, press media, journalists, photographers, ambassadors, etc. After our sequence, we went backstage and we really had a roller coaster of emotions. All those sleepless nights, stresses, no meal days and all the difficulties we went through were finally over. It was worth everything. This concludes my three years of learning and we had the chance to showcase it to the crowd and people. After our sequence we finally had the time to breather. All along these past three months it felt as if somebody had put on something in our neck as we were suffocating but now it felt as if it had been let go. We could breathe in peace. 

After the runway we had a huge feast and that tasted like the best meal that I had for the entire life.
