I was frequently hit by many "how to...." series!
I hate the very idea of advice......be it giving or taking.....
what effect is it going to have anyway?.......So I
shuddered at a thought of giving advices ,in a blog.
When does a person gives advices?............
when he/she is perfect[or atleast ,nearperfect] in
something......And instantly,a whacky thought stroke me.
I'm good at getting mokkais and resisting them!?
.......hey ...wait...don't u go laughing at me....if u people
would give a little thought.....may be u would realize that
its not an easy job after all......so here I go....
- who cares ? technique:
This is a technique, that could actually work!....
Try remembering the situation,when u were caught up
for a stupidest act , u did. And ur whole class is laughing
at u.Deep down in our heart, we would expect the whole
ground to open up and swallow us....But outside, we
have to act as if ,it did not affect the slightest of our
soul....
Stand supreme, in front of the friends and act as if
u r going to receive a nobelprize!.And use catchy
phrases like "So what?"....."it happens u know!".....
Project urself as a person who doesn't care a damn
about the society or the pressure it gives......
- The laughing back technique:
I learned this technique , from my chemistry professor
.......such a niceperson....but not too good in teaching...
..so he had problems withstudents....almost nobody
would listen to the class and all his sessions became a
mess.....also the students started shouting and
laughing in his classes.....I pitiedhim................and
one day it went out of control.....he looked like ,
he was going to burst.....I thought someone would get
suspended that day....But what he did really surprised
all of us....He stopped teaching ,turned back and started
laughing.....staring straight in our faces.
To be honest,we were all shocked.That smile had
thousand hidden meanings in it.And ,still now I
cannot phrase it in words....And we all felt very
humiliated!
But ...students r always students......the yelping and
the laughing continued.....but the level certainly reduced.....
Try this stratergy also, in desperate times....
(more of them are about to follow................
as and when I remember them)
