The Two Tables that ruined me.

Are you thinking “Good intentions gone bad?” Well, your timing couldn’t be better. Sophomores wag their tails upon the dawn of their sophomoric era, and as for the third and fourth year guys; fill in whatever superlative you want to. The fact that I have entered my third year is only sad (1.Got only 2 more years here. 2. I am no longer a teen.) But for a reason no stranger than all the Genelia/Emma Watson faced orkut females’ identity issues or the superiority of the ‘Caste for Life’ maniacs, I was bossing around; and my vandalism had no bounds. I see a nearby empty room and decide to take the unused table in it. I have got one which my laptop comfortably occupies. The rationale for this extra table was (and still is) that one would be for work on the laptop (read wasting away time) and the other would be used literally as a writing/study table. A decent amount of time passes by while I revel in this ‘awesome ingenuity’ of mine. The mid terms come and go; I realize I have screwed up big time. So, what went wrong? On retrospection, when I had a single table, after wasting time on the laptop, I quickly get down to study. Now, it’s almost blasphemous for me to study on the laptop; the entire day goes by in front of the laptop and the status quo of this semester’s academic record speaks for itself. Yep, you are right; I am as dumb as the two acquaintances of mine. (If I sound esoteric refer to the first post)
