24+ Hours in a Day


There are only 24 hours in a day. Time, it's a commodity which you can't buy. It doesn't even matter how rich you are???. What if ... If you get 2 extra hours in a day???

For some people who are busy the whole day, those 2 hours will ease their minds ... For the rest who wastes the day, it doesn't really matter.

People have different priorities depending on their mindsets. Some say that it is family ... Someone else say that it is career ... etc. Let's see some scenarios :-

A Student:- Now that's a broad category. In student life, there are many things that are part of their daily routine. Books, Lab, Friends, Canteen, Hostel, Room, A girl/boy (More than One Girl/Boy in some cases).
  • A student who is bothered about his/her career and keeps on studying for impending exams. Extra hours are a bliss for him/her and utilizes them for his/her only purpose - Study. 
  • The one with a girl friend who keeps on chit-chatting with her on the phone, he doesn't even recognize the time. So extra hours will just give him, extra phone bill to pay. 
  • The one with lots of friends and hangs around canteen and theatres, ... Well, he needs a little more funds to keep himself around and enjoy the company. Maybe it will also give him some time to think about his future.

An Unemployed:-  With growing competition and increasing no. of passed-outs every year, a person has to do a lot more than just getting good marks on his/her grade sheet to survive in this mean world. Need to recognize strengths and dominate weaknesses, keeping the struggle "ON" without getting disheartened. Extra hours in their day will be valuable, so that he/she can develop some skills or attend some job interviews or come up with some business venture, etc.

A Software Professional:- With upcoming deadlines, never-ending bugs to debug, pending objectives to get appraisal, etc,  he/she definitely needs more than 24 hours in a day. With ever-decreasing work-life balances in the IT field, these extra hours are extremely valuable. They can spend these extra hours in various ways. Can get some more sleep to get rid of those black patches under their eyes or dedicate it to their career (not recommended) or spend it in relationships (highly recommended).

A Parent:- Children wants to spend their time with parents. What if they have to spend their time with some babysitter in the evenings??? There may be some children who spent their childhood with maids looking after them while either parents were out there, working the whole day. Even parents want to spend their time with children. But nowadays, jobs come at the cost of the employee's personal life. A few extra hours will be valuable to both, children & parents. By spending time together, they live up their lives. With cherishing moments in childhood, children will know the value of compassion & love. They will remember to do the same when they become a parent in the future.

Retired or Old age:- A person with good memories from his/her past life will spend their old age recollecting those memories. With good health, he/she can also have new memories to rejuvenate his/her old age. Few extra hours are of no harm to him/her.

As per my situation is concerned, I need those extra hours desperately for the preparation of my CFA Level 1 exam for the next 1 month.

Bowling & Howling

Have ever been to a "Bowling Alley"...??? "No"... Then U r missing something...I would say that it's one of the "Too Good" recreational activities. From many weeks, my roommate Vishal has been asking me to give company for going to Bowling Alley. I was not interested at that time as I thought that it would be too costly and boring too. But I said "Ok" to give company,  not to participate. There are few Malls which feature a Bowling Alley.

Recognition of IT-BHU in my surroundings...

When we get out from college and enter into the world, everybody asks u the same question " Which college did you study?".Too say frankly, I am really afraid of this question that too when i am outside of Banaras.(Thank God! At least people of Banaras know about it. Just Kidding!!!)
