And So The World Turns...

I really fancy the way some things work. Recently, a friend of mine spent Rs. 1500 for two medical text books, that would approximately weigh in at 6 kgs together. Bibin figured out how medical students pass their exams: they cant fall asleep reading the books lying on their backs because the weight would ultimately suffocate them.

Its quite unnerving how these doctors carry around all these fat books. For me, they'd substitute going to the gym.

I've spent the last three years doing my PG, and I've learnt most of my theory from a text by a publisher named Subhas Stores. We dont spend so much on them, neither do we study the entire text - we take xeroxes of the required parts, rush through them and then give it off to our juniors.

Of course, we manage to pass. Come to think of it, how could anyone compare a Rs. 1000 text and a Rs. 30 xerox. I guess we cant really blame doctors for charging so much.

And I still fancy how some things work...
