Birthday paradox ...

In probability theory, the birthday problem, or birthday paradox,[1] pertains to the probability that in a set of randomly chosen people some pair of them will have the same birthday. In a group of 23 (or more) randomly chosen people, there is more than 50% probability that some pair of them will have the same birthday. For 57 or more people, the probability is more than 99%, tending toward 100% as the pool of people grows

But the paradox f0r me on this day was the birthday of many people including my friend was whether to be or not to be .. Meaning whether to be there or not to be there ..
Also it involved a home - coming so things would have been even more fun ..
But then I decided against being there as the Cosmos would miss me otherwise ..
On a lighter note :
They say that the tradition of birthdays started in Persia and spread throughout the Roman Empire ..
So no doubt that the able guys from Sparta would have been celebrating June 1st as Julius Caesar's bday ... There was no July before he decided so !!!But how about 1st September ..

You need to leave the shore and swim for a long time without looking back .. thats only if you want to find new shores

Why?

An old draft being posted

after 200 days of working .....I suddenly have a huge doubt .....what exactly am I supposed to do right ?
I have felt for the past 22 years that a 9 to 6 job is the easiest thing in the world ...All you got to do is to drag your sick ass down to the office at 9 and drag it back home at 6 . Atleast ma dad made it look easy ..You might bring work home sometimes but its a passing phase maybe a week or at max 2. Now when I am on the other side of the fence goin to school seems so damn easy ..You have fixed deadlines and if you don't meet them the max that may go wrong is that you affect your grades...maybe get a punishment..Here you have deadlines which shift faster that the quicksand and all the time you are in this hole full of shit ... Missing a deadline is as big a crime as wearing shoes to the temple..Nobody says a thing until you reach the sanctum sanctorum and then you are kicked out....Same is the case here ....when you are neck deep in quicksand they find you as a stepping stone to the other side ....the scapegoat ...

Maybe it is actually easy to do it but it depends on whether you got it all right in the first place...
You must know where to and where not to open your mouth????
