In the movie Bunty aur babli, Abhishek Bachchan keeps saying this dialogue through out the movie… He would be propounding all his theories through this dialogue: “Yeh world hai na world! Is me do tarah ke log hote hai.. ek jo……………. Dusre jo……….”. I loved that dialogue of his. And now, I am going to use that dialogue to propound one of my theories! Well, this is not MY theory or anything! Everybody knows this. I would better call it my observation and I am sure even that observation would have been made by many other people prior to me. Anyway, here it goes.
In this world, there are two types (categories) of people! There is this first category of students who buy the text books and mark all the important topics/questions on the day 1 of the semester and would have finished revising atleast thrice by the time the exam dates are announced and still freak out as if they haven’t even touched the book! And there is the other category of students who buy the text books after the exam dates are announced and start studying when they are left with hardly 2-3 weeks! (I don’t think I need to explain more about these categories because all the readers would have been surely in one of the abovementioned categories during their student days (if you are still a student like me, you would know better!) and would be well acquainted with the other category as well!)
And I feel proud to admit that I belong to the latter category! Our category has a few specialities which may be listed below! (I’d prefer calling it “speciality”. The 1st category would surely call it “eccentricity!” But I don’t mind that tag either!!)
1. Our category is proud to admit that they are lethargic, late risers and not hard working enough!
2. We plan to start studying when we are left with three weeks to the exam and finally bring ourselves to study when we are 2 or one and a half weeks away from writing the exams!
3. We are also wise enough to maintain a safe distance from the 1st category who have the potential to scare us to our soul and make us feel like we are surely going to flunk in the exams and have a few backs!
4. And we also make bald promises to ourselves that from the next exam we will be more prompt and start early and be ready for the exams. (As I mentioned, they are “bald” promises, so we will never execute them!)
These are the salient features. I don’t want to probe into the deeper and finer qualities of us because it is quite a long list and since I am sure that no reader would be alien to this concept, he/she wouldn’t need much explanation! ;)
Inspite of being so lethargic, happy-go-lucky, we manage to get a decent result and pass out with flying colours! The 1st category getting a 95% in the exams is equivalent to us getting an 85%. We study when we are weeks away from the exams and still get a distinction, those aliens study through out the year and get only 95%?? Tch tch.. Not that smart! Ain’t it?! It shows one more aspect. And that is, the 2nd category is more intelligent and has a better grasping power than the 1st one! Isn’t it? Atleast I feel so!
Now, I am propounding all these theories, analysing the trend etc etc., because….. I am 3 weeks away from the exam!! And today, I managed to buy all the important books for the upcoming exams! This is just one more salient feature of our category! We tend to get more creative and indulge in other hobbies and activities as the exams approach! And that is why I am writing this blog now!!
Wish me luck! I need your wishes! ;)
Lol!!! Good luck Vai! :-)
