Another light-hearted and humorous post(may be, lets see how it comes out); for some getaway off the exam and project tensions(needless to say - for others, not me personally....), and perhaps from some conflicts...
Disclaimers:
- This post is not intended to hurt anyone; not an inch more than what they deserve and have developed - including the author himself.
- This is a general trend analysis and .... ( hmm, anyway no one would take anything I write here seriously so no need of completing that with justifications and exceptions..)
- Statistics on the other kind of population is not performed. This is a purely male-oriented and male-dominated post!!
A picture says it all - and what better than the above picture showing the 'development' of an IITian over the course and stay.
The above pic clearly sums up a general trend; and the reasons for it are obvious - Food habits and more mental workout than physical exercise.Obviously there are exceptions - very energetic and fit kids, or genetic outliers; but this is a common scenario...
Details are probably insignificant here - whether it is the mess food or the canteen food, erratic eating habits or high carbs and fat diet; what strikes out is that the 'curve' happens to be one of the identifying factor of a well settled IITian!
I am a Stage-3 now; and yes - initially I did try some jogging stuff to curb the bulger, but of late became complacent. So, no jogging, no gymming(well, never tried - but was a mental exercise :D) - just worrying about the protruding tummy. Just wishing that Stage-4 wouldn't set in with all this laziness growing!!
So here is a notable 'benefit' of joining IIT ;-)
Before ending, one question:
What stage do you find yourself ???
Why does an IITian care about looking?? :)
ReplyDeleteAren't IITians people ??
DeleteAnyway, this post talks more on how they look in the eyes of others...
good one bro... I am also switching between stage 3 and stage 4.... lets see who achieves stage 5 first :)
ReplyDeleteI am in stage 4 :D
ReplyDeleteWell written!
Hey come on..
ReplyDeleteNobody wants to reach stage 5!!
Of course nobody wants... who wanted even stage 3... but if one year of iit can transform me from stage 1 to 3, then one more year....
DeleteP.S. I am not going to reach at stage 5 in any way. Whenever I cross stage 4, I usually fall into stomach problems and they put me again in stage 2.
Stage 3 i guess
ReplyDeletesumantha you were in stage 2 right when you came to bangalore last time
ReplyDeleteYes, I might have overstated a bit...
DeleteCorrection made..
