I tried to read Algebra after Minors

Hi..
Being an IITian, I make a lot of efforts to keep up with ever rising standards of procrastination and lousiness. I feel obliged to confess sins like studying after minors, etc, and I am ready for prosecution.

This is what actually happened....
After having screwed the minors, I watched Freaks and Geeks (it kicks ass!!) all night, partly because I was guilty. The little bit of conscience, I still have left in me, started revolting, much like the "Angel and Devil" situation in Tom n Jerry, and just to suppress it, I had to pick up a book, which happened to be on "Algebra". This is where my "Special Task Force of thoughts" came to rescue. Here is the report....

The standard ones came first : -
Why am I here? I used to be so good, what happened to me? Am I fit to be in IIT?

And then begun specialised, situation dependant thought process : -
"I am going around in a circle, ie ending where I begun, not matter what I do. I must follow a plan. If I assume that whosoever made the circle must have made it to his specifications, ie something must have bound him to the centre, and he went round and round. (It seems more logical that someone else has already been here). Now the question is was the guy rational or irrational. Because he was a human, and humans cannot form groups as they do not have unity. Hence, humans are not rational, ie humans are irrational. So, it must have been an irrational thought which bound him to his centre of attraction (which most probably was some XX creature). So, I also know that if I take rational steps, and knowing that I am not at the correct position, then I will never end up on my original point, since the circle is irrational, except the case where radius = p/q(pi). But, I have tried taking rational steps after all the 4 exams till now, and I end up at the same position where I begun, so r = p/q(pi) and the circle is indeed rational, and thus, I have to take irrational steps such that they do not become rational at a time. Also, the answer to this question must be irrational, which in turn implies lack of rationality in IIT courses."
And here is a new turn :-
"Even if I take irrational steps, there are uncountable number of them, and since I am literate and know the scientific notation, I can never stop counting, then my whole analysis must be flawed. Talking about analysis, what if it is not to be solved using algebraic theory, but "real analysis" which sounds more rational (damn these rationals). Being on a circle, most familiar situation would be a Discrete Metric over all Real choices. This explains I feel like being trapped in the same circle even after making different choices. I am indeed a Self-Centered person, and so even after making different choices, I will always be the center of my world. This analysis is really complex (damn it!!!) . But, luckily the same analysis is valid for all the complex situations as well. This also means I can never get out this vicious circle, until of course, either I am kicked out, or pass out, or maybe some new "Metric" enters my life where someone/something else is more special, and my steps become sequential rather than simultaneous, and hence my rollback equilibrium shifts to optimum performance. Till then, I am more like prisoner and the equilibrium solution of my dilemma is the worst for me. Whoa... I finally sorted this out.... damn it, I don't want to miss 10th class in a row"

So u see, I was more or less able to pass the 2 hrs I had left after finishing Freaks and Geeks, and before my maths class. More of this later. :)

I leave it to the reader to help me out with the loopholes.... or new theories...

  1. Good work dude!! Awesome infact. I like the "Damn these rationals" part. That's innovative. Keep up the good work.
