Do we think that way?

It was at one of those bhaat sessions at chedies i realized that how ignorant i was.We were having a discussion on how we could generate some amount to support our ever growing needs so as to off the burden from our parents.someone suggeted that lets calculate our expense and that was it .What followed was this:

31200/year our tution fees.
6200 hmc/year
12000 the hugga mess/year
20000 extra /year
these extra include canteen , chedies, biloos, treats,travel, daru, sutta,stationary and in some cases books :)) .
dont these extras sound too meagre.But lets continue....
all the above may not seem uncommon to us but wait..
just sum it up , it amounts to approximately 70000 Rs.
calculate the amount per month =6000 approx
amount per day =200 Rs.
YES 200 Rs PER DAY !!!!!!!!!!!
This is what our dear parents spend on us everyday hoping one day we will rise to the top of the world(Papa kehte hain bada naam karega beta hamara aisa kaam karega.............)
but what do we do in return ?
This is what a general kgpian does on a particular day----
1.sleeping in the class or better bunking the class and sleeping in the room
2.Chatting on YM/DC++
3.watching movies , f.r.e.i.n.d.s , life as we know it
4.doing bhajans
5.whiling away time on the net like playing orkut orkut
6.bhaating with wingmates
7.2.2 or chatting on golc or in cl with any sn specie he gets hold of..
8.hosting or listening radio or movie channels
9.writing blogs :))

but is this is what is expected of us?
I know that all of us r not of the above class but most of us r.
i know i may be sounding like a monotonic chemistry prof. giving his lecture on quantum chemistry ,but this is the truth that most of us dont want to come head to head with.
I also dont mean that we should not do any of the above activities , all of above are important but what want to emphasize is that in some corner of our mind we should have the realization that our stay here involves a substancial amount of money to be drained out from our parents' pokets and we should try to fully utilize it .
Many of us may be doing it but all of us are not.
Until that day i was not and even now i am not able to fully convert my time into fruitfull result.
But now at the back of my mind there is always a thought that today 200 odd Rs are being spent on me so why not do something worthwhile. Atleast i can attend all my lectures today if not do something else.
But even if we dont want to do this then why stay here wasting those precious 200 Rs a day and eating hugga at mess, instead we should be at home doing nothing and enjoying the delicious food giving our "IIT" status to someone else more worthy.
