Pro-crastinating bong..

NO.

I am not suggesting that the average bengali has proclivities towards perpetually delaying their already delayed matters(job,studies or whatever).Nor am i,by fiddling arond with alphabets,trying to put a label on them.Im a bong myself.

I was merely drawn into a retrospect,which in itself was a culmination of three consecutive lazy mornings and six cups of coffee(decaffe),on whether the irrepressible urge to delay important assignments is only confined to my slothful self..an uncle of mine who happens to be bengali also,somewhat calmed my agitated nerves.He was supposed to leave for mumbai on some official tour and had to get himself updated on current affairs,as he would be interviewing some candidates.To his consternation,he discovered that time does not expand and remains a constant commodity..fixed at seven days with 24hrs each,which then runs into months and years in that precise order.Acknowledging this essential fact of life,48hrs before departure,is perhaps not helpful.Nevertheless,he was equally aware of the effects of an immovable self-belief.Well i was'nt.It did not take me a long time to find out though.

The results of a solid human self-belief in such a situation,keeping my uncle as the parameter;of trying to conquer time(at the last minute?) are as follows: dizziness,grogginess accompanied by gastronomical implosions of diverse kinds and hypertension.

Procrastination of such supreme kind,magnified several times,maybe seen in some government offices also.They have,in fact perfected the art and taken it to the next level...or so i heard.Therefore,i can now take solace from the fact that,im not the only creature to practice this ancient art form.

Let me give you further paradigms of how this human trait was prevalent in medieval times..

ummm...maybe later.Time for some sleep.............................................
