I've got my IAS Mains exam this Saturday. I've been preparing hard for it but as the exam inches closer, my studying hours become lesser.
Today - 10 a.m - Woke up, listened to some songs.
11 a.m - Called my friend who is also preparing for Mains.
Me: 'Hey I feel very lazy to study today, what are you doing?'
Friend: 'I just woke up, will call you after brushing.'
Me to myself: Okay, let me just watch one
1 p.m - Half the day is gone, will have to start studying now. Opened laptop. Then out of sheer instinct, my fingers just opened Facebook! Then Twitter! And then, yes, Youtube and Gmail!
3 p.m - Call from another friend - 'Macha we have booked tickets for the Diwali release day after tomorrow. It's a night show, so don't give some lame excuse. Just turn up at the theatre by 9pm.'
Me: 'Fine, will see you there.'
Him: 'And we play football in the evening, come there, we'll have dinner and leave together for the movie.'
Me: 'Okay'
Him: 'And I've got some fancy crackers this time, I'll bring them to your home in the morning, we'll have fun'
Me: 'Oh! You're welcome any time.'
Him: 'Okay, I have to get back, Happy Diwali!'
Me: 'Hey...' Call disconnected!
6.45 p.m: Me to my IAS friend: 'Mate what are you doing?'
Him: 'Watching TV only. I'll start studying by six.'
Me: 'But it's 6.45 now'
Him: 'What? Ah, yes. Okay then I'll start by seven. What are you going to do?'
Me: 'Uhm... Just watch another inspirational video, I guess.'
