FIVE AND TEN POINTERS

GONE ARE THE DAYS WHEN CHILDREN USED TO AMUSE THEMSELVES  BY PLAYING OUTDOOR GAMES LIKE CRICKET,FOOTBALL,BADMINTON ,ETC. IN THEIR FREE TIME.NOWADAYS THE YOUTH ESPECIALLY THE B.TECH STUDENTS ARE SPLIT INTO TWO-ONE OF THE TWO GROUPS IS BUSY WITH FACEBOOK AND TWITTER & CONSTANTLY STRAIN THEIR EYES IN FRONT OF LAPTOP.THE OTHER ONE IS THE GROUP OF MUGGERS,WHO STRAIN THEIR EYES REVISING NOTES RELATED TO JAVA,RESISTORS,CAPACITORS,MATRIX ETC.IN THE LONG RUN BOTH GROUPS'S TACTICS ARE LEADING THEM NOWHERE ACCORDING TO ME.WHILE FORMER'S PARENTS ARE TOO BUSY IN THEIR RAT RACE TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR CHILD & PROVIDES THEM WITH EVERY POSSIBLE WISH,THE CHILD IS NOWHERE TO GO.OF COURSE HE OR SHE MIGHT BE FULLY AWARE OF ALL THE LATEST TECHNICAL GADGETS BUT THE FACT IS  THAT GENERALLY HE OR SHE IS A FIVE POINTER AND IS FULLY UNAWARE OF THE EMOTIONS AND THE BOND THAT A FAMILY SHARES.THEIR LOW GRADES ARE NOT BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT THEY DON'T HAVE ENOUGH BRAIN TO SOLVE COMPLEX CIRCUITS RATHER THEY DON'T WANNA DIVERT THEIR MIND TOWARDS STUDIES.THEY BELIEVE THE BURDEN OF STUDIES IS NOT AFFORDABLE.SURPRISING!!THE LATTER'S PARENTS ARE PRETTY MUCH STRICT WITH THEIR CHILDREN.THEY TAKE CARE OF THE FACT THAT THEIR CHILD DOESN'T SLIP FROM THEIR HANDS.BUT IN REALITY TOO MUCH CONTROL OFTEN DOESN'T WORK OUT.AS A RESULT OF WHICH THESE SUPER MUGGERS BURY THEMSELVES INSIDE BOOKS.THEIR DAY STARTS WITH OHM'S LAW AND THEIR DAY ENDS WITH KIRCHOFF'S LAWS.THEIR DREAM SHOW THEM LOGIC GATES & THEIR NIGHTMARES HAUNT THEM WITH 2 STROKE AND 4 STROKE ENGINES.IT IS PRETTY HARD TO SAY THAT NONE OF THE ABOVE TWO GROUPS IS UPTO THE MARK.WHAT SURPRISES ME MOST IS THE THIRD CATEGORY OF STUDENTS INSPIRED BY AAMIR KHAN'S ROLE IN 3 IDIOTS.THIS GROUP IS THE COMBINATION OF FIRST AND SECOND GROUP(3=1+2).I AM SOMEWHAT JEALOUS OF THEM.MY JEALOUSY LIES IN THE FACT THAT NOT ONLY THEY ARE NINE OR SURPRISINGLY TEN POINTERS BUT ALSO THEY ARE FULLY AWARE OF THE OUTER WORLD.THE WORLD RESPECTS THEM AND NO ONE DARES TO TRICK THEM.THEIR PLACEMENTS ARE JUST OUTSTANDING!!FRIENDS THE SPARK BELONGS TO THIS THIRD GROUP ONLY.AND NO ONE CAN STEAL IT FROM THEM.NOR MUGGING NOR SURFING THE NET WHOLE DAY HELPS.WE MUST ALL BELIEVE IN OUR TALENTS AND BE PATIENT,SUCCESS WILL FOLLOW US.....
