passion vs. pass time

THE UNDYING ECONOMIST

It may sound like an popular passion given the way people think around the word 'economics'.But in a third world country it is the still one of the lowest paying jobs.Economics is traditionally considered the highest paying back 'arts/humanities' degree but if you are not studying at St.Stephens there is no way you can ever earn more than 25,000 per month .As a person studying at India's oldest and one of the most prestigious college, i know how economics is being 'thought'.it is such irony that economics when thought as papers are valued much at campus interviews but worth nothing as a major by itself.

So i was clear to take BBA in college given my family which neither could afford my B.A economics in St.Stephen's nor live without me when i am 17. Eventually i took the next best course on the basis of being interesting and being monetarily Strong.The conclusion was simple there are only two majors which is at least remotely connected with economics ,they are BBA and B.com. the primary reason i declined B.com is that it deals with Accounts , while i am actually really good at it on papers (200 once and 199 once) it is not because it is interesting but easy . Because the economist in me told me to question why accounts work this way every else were struggling how.Every body knew that a B.com major will sound better at a job market. But they are just looking at the package offered at the campus selection not the long term career .If at all they knew something of that kind exist. BBA is interesting and worth spending my 3 years not even a single paper looked out of my scope but as i said second best favorite.

True zeal never dies , i am taking B.A economics in correspondence from my second year . It wont be of any pain to me as i can get 95% in all the first and second year papers. A singer can sing when ever some one asks her to , so does a dancer , so does a economist.Currently the only way is to pursue my passion is to score university first in both my day college and corresponding course.

Because a passion is not what you do, declining all tinsel things ,
a passion is something for which you can do anything just to ensure its endurance
