We human being are really funny, our mind plays a very imp role in the way we behave..today a similar thing happened i dint want to do something and some how i could collect loads of reasons to support my decision.
Sitting for "Labour Welfare" lecture is boring in the first place,and it becomes a daunting task specially when you have 2 back to back lectures ,that to from a Prof who is 3 times your age.
Now its true I wont mind having lec from a prof who is cute and funny and yes the main criteria prof should be of a opposite gender :-P...ya ya i know that it is every guys WISH,but who would blame us.. for me it was the finance and the HRP lec which was the best.
There was one clear reason for attending that lectures..well yes i guess 2 reasons [don't get any naughty thought people!!!! it was the fact that both the profs who thought that subjects were cute and they had good knowledge about the subject]
So back to yesterday We had to attend a lecture for Labour Welfare.Now I don't wanna sound rude but the prof just kept on rambling on and on and on.for a moment I was asking myself WTF is goin on.
Ne ways to add more oil to the fire the prof left us late.
So I had made up my mind that I wont be attending today's lec.Right from yday nite i started coming up with reasons to support my decision.
Some of the reasons were
- He leaves late
- what would happens if I miss one LEC
- It was just the start of the sem
Then to add to that one more reason. my mum said to me"if you aren't feeling well dont go for the lec and take rest [OK i wasn't acting but i was actually down with severe cold]"
It was really funny coz there have been so many instances that I have tried and justified my decision sometimes a did stick to my it sometimes not.
But today I went for that lec yes the catch here was i went late so that i wouldn't have to suffer for a long time :-)

I like this post.
"Rationality" is defined in Wikipedia as our ability to recognize that doing thing B gives thing A.
So if we want thing A, we should do thing B.
In other words, reason or rationality is nothing but what You want.
@ Alok: glad u liked the post...
Oh yeah! Talking about the mind connection! I mean the lazy mind connection that is.......can u imagine going to the gym @ 05:30am and then returning home the very instant only to head back into the sack? Well....I did just that a few days ago! ;) Thank God for the 'supportive' mind! ;)

hmmm..any which ways you wont find reasons to attend his classes yaar when you already have a reason to attend HRP lecture...and to some extent OB lectures ;)
Lucky you ,
our prof did not react very well to late comers . . They had this stupid policy - you come late , you get no attendance . . My only way out of boring lectures was sleep!!
@ kitty: :-P
@ Fantasies of a Lifetime: yes even we got the same thing now u come late and no attendance
@ divs: yes true i wasd damn bugged that day
We create our realities with our reasons and reasoning :)

@ devika : very true we indeed create our realities by reasoning
how long r u gonna hang on the same reason???
gud rayt up!!!
gud way of bringin bck the readers in2 wat u want them to know!!!
hey! i do the same, just atleast by ten mins.. Then i go to the clas,,either keep sth on the table n read or write sth or just reliving memories till i run out of them, or else cross sudoku...
BTW! let me get it straight! do u like the profs, just cos they are cute or they are good @ the subject..just a doubt!!!
@ my world: welcome again and thanks
@ seeker: well take a guess buddy..
i always wondered why they have to teach us all that boring stuff :O
Remembering the number of boring lectures i attended i just feel i wasted my time.
@ lena: LOl what did you study?we have a law person here a management student too..
Again, a very interesting post... you really do bring up excellent points.
Reasons...I believe most of us do things for all the wrong reasons(we want things for wrong reasons themselves :> which are not in resonance with nature), first I used to believe every reason is just made up...which is a part of human power...but then I did realise that there are strong and well defined reasons which apply not only to us but also to animals and trees and blah blah, thats what I call nature :)
I have been thinking of making 'reasons' an important part of my own non-existent future post...
@ ayushi: thanks again ya.
u are rite when u say we do things for wrong reasons
ne ways waiting for your next poct
