Smoking;The necessary evil

By -

Smoking is bad, they say. It will attack your lungs, incapacitate your heart, yellow your teeth.And once it’s gotten its fill, it will probably kill you too.


 But it has some advantages,if we take a hard look at it ....

 Nowadays life is full of stress . Everyone is racing with time every day.To deal with such stress people resort to smoking at an early age .But if it is done at a limit which is less dangerous. then it helps to remove a lot of these and helps to refresh our mind and make us return to our work with high spirits . Smoking prevents diseases like ulcerative colitis also.A term used often is "smoke break" where 7-10 mins of organized puffing with collegeues can sometimes lead to interesting discussion.It can also help in egestion as the nicotine present helps in relaxation of the muscles in large intestine...
So,What's the problem in continuing?
As I have mentioned earlier..You have to smoke in "Limit". But as it is stretched to the level of addiction,thus limitation cannot be implemented in this case.
What are your reason to smoke?
The result of my personal survey (by speaking with chain smokers) are as follows:-
1. Peer pressure:
                                                    To be cool!.:p
                                                     I mean literally?
2. Frustration and Depression (like the picture says)

 3. Fulfill the deficiency of concentration
                                                             And many more....
My counter question to you is...
What is the point of being cool rather how can you be cool, if your teeth is yellow? your breath is foul?
Who says that smoking eradicate the frustration? depression?
Instead, be brave to face the cause of your frustration!
Nicotine doesn't increase your concentration!( Hell yeah!Myth buster!.B) )
It increases your concentration level back to normal, which you can achieve without spending a single penny!
Now,the economic point of view...
If you spend Rs 5 per day on cigarettes,biris and decide to quit the same then you will save Rs 18,000 in 10 years.
But the problem is very few can save money but others cannot..
So, you may say that all the "non smokers aren't millionaires" but so is in case of smokers. Not all of the smokers are millionaires.
If you can't save money atleast use them to buy something good...eat good,watch an extra movie in a month.
To conclude,
                                         " IT IS YOUR LIFE, JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF"
This post is written in collaboration with Ankit Halder.He has recently passed the MBBS course and I have requested him to give us an insight of health if possible on a weekly basis.
Encourage him....give us your reason to smoke.We will try to solve it.

The Ghost of Victoria

 The place Dowhill is unknown to many. It is situated at the heart of Himalayas near the historical city of Darjeeling. Though Dowhill has a vast stretch of natural scenic beauty surrounding it but during the British era it was particularly famous for the schools and the education it provided. One of such school is Victoria Boys School. The stature of the school conveyed the rich architectural taste of the British, even after so many years of their departure, it has maintained the culture and the buildings with some inevitable maintenance.I, being somewhat frustrated with my job (studies to be precise) and with a need of some fresh air visited Dowhill. Umm…to tell the truth I was attracted by the stories surrounding the Victoria Boys depicted by my father.My father was a timber merchant and regularly visited the forests and hills for the auction purpose. Since my childhood, he fondly described me his experiences from the attack of wild animals to his negotiations with dacoits...

The Day which made My Life;My Interview Experience

By -
The day had finally arrived, although not a significant one but for me its importance cannot be defined in words. The date was 23 rd August, 2016. On this day Shapoorji Pallonji Group visited our college campus for interview selection. As I had already cleared Aptitude Test round on 12 th August the same year, I was eligible for the Group Discussion round, clearing which will give me an opportunity to face my first ever Job Interview. On the previous night, I had many difficulties in sleeping, in fact, I just slept for an hour. A thought passed by my mind, “Dreams are those which doesn’t let you sleep!” Moreover owing to the inability to sleep, I was thinking of…What if I fail? What if I succeed?. At 6 o’clock, Baral, my roomie was still awake, not due to any tension or something like that, but he is habituated to sleep late. I rudely kicked him out of his bed although not literally and suggested him to accompany me to the nearby tea-shop, to have a cup of tea and biscuits. On ou...
