Time Check!

While proudly showing off his new apartment to friends, a college student led the way into the den.

"What is the big brass gong and hammer for?" one of his friends asked.

"That is the talking clock", the man replied.

"How's it work?" the friend asked.

"Watch", the man said then proceeded to give the gong an ear shattering pound with the hammer.

Suddenly someone screamed from the other side of the wall "KNOCK IT OFF, YOU IDIOT! It's two AM in the morning!


Well, Time is quite funny! Its bad when the going gets tough in life, amazing at a party, slow when you don't feel like working in office and its fastest when you are enjoying a holiday!
My seven years in a boarding school were supposed to make me realize its value, we had waking up time; PT time; eating time; studying time and reading time, and sleeping time. Everything had been carefully adjusted as per the scientific laws of making grand successes out of normal students.
Coming to Delhi to begin graduation was at a time when colleges seemed custom made only for superior certificates or big pockets, the very first time my parents and I both agreed that studying hard had been a waste of time for me. Still it never really stopped them from pushing me in the same direction in college.

There is also a time when you feel like telling those men in you life to start behaving like one. To treat you as you want them to (many times synonymous with Queen), give you what you want and stop fooling around, only to be told and later agree that it is not possible. They are way less imaginative than those heroes you had read about in books and begin to completely lose the initiative with time.


And then there is the good time... when you are surrounded by people like you, people who love and care for you, I mean friends of course!! That is a good breed of humans, you can complain, talk sense or nonsense, eat with, play with, sing and dance with. Time never changes them actually with calories or wrinkles or even a few more degrees and rarely ever t
urns them against you.

Today when I write this after being reminded a good many times, and literally being offered a treat for getting my fingers running over the keyboard, I have given it a shot and hope have made some use of my time (there is no doubt that you will feel I have wasted your time after you read this). And if that is how the case may be....


then, i am off......
