5. Free Style

Does the almighty stop the rotation of the earth for a while ? Or is it just me...Why is it that the one hour CA (comp. Algorithms) class seems to last until eternity!!!!

Just before an exam, we scamper around learning this and that and how we wish that we had that extra minute or two. We always think of the wonders culd hav done with those minutes.....:)
The thing we need to note is, that the lack of attention towards the activity we are pursuing gives a notion of an increased time span. We feel there's more time at hand when we dont do the work witha level of concentration and dedication. After having read millions of logically derived mathematical propositions, you can have a chuckle at this axiom that i am gonna propose.

{Attentivity + Purposefulness + Dedication }
proportional to
{ 1 / (Time left to pursue the purpose}

The classic example I'd like to give is what my friend used to say when we got bored during the drab lectures " Paanch(5) minute se watch dekhroon, Do(2) minute hi hua kya rey bhai ".........

There will always be exceptions to this seemingly weird statement,but try to think why an exception becomes one and the truth comes out, the law applies even there, in an indirect fashion :P
