Smile Of Good Luck Charm - on the Way to Exam - 17-11-2007, 02:27 AM

Its that time of the year when preps and revision take a back seat, and in the driver's seat come good luck charms, talismans, totems and tone-totke
Well, even in the much touted digital world, good number of us thus become susceptible to the occult, so to say..

SOP for the Thread: This is another one of those unwind zones to discuss some traits/habits which you might have picked up during your school / college / mock days which you believe are your PEDs (Performance Enhancements Drugs!)..

To put it plainly, let us discuss our dependence on those habits / things / activities / features of ours, we make sure we do (or we don't) on the exam day..

Mods bhai log.. fun thread hai yaar.. at least ek din let it exist.. puhleezz

Hahaha!! It does seem that we all do believe in such things..
My mom gave me sth sweet to eat (mostly dahi-laddoo or sth like that) in my school days...
Used to have some lucky charms:: lucky pen, lucky shirt.. Even I've heard of a bad-looking tie succeeding in placing 17 candidates in my senior batch..
For some time now, ( i.e. in last 2 years or so on occasions like job interviews, GMAT-day etc)I've restricted this mostly to morning prayers or a maatha-tekna in the nearby mandir..


Race to perfection has no finish line!!
