HAHAHA. Man, I'll never operate in the "real world" if I don't change my operating times. You know you're a student when watching the early morning cartoons means it's almost time for bed.
- When you walk in to favorite pub, and you know which members of staff are on and how long there shift lasts for - Then you ask them to join you after they finish (and they say yes) - You spend longer in the pub then any member of staff including the manager - You know the prices of all the drinks, even the ones you never buy - You know how to operate the tills/computer system in your favorite pub - You get asked to cover for a memeber of staff while they go to the bog - You join in with the hazing of the 'new guy' - When the barman is asked whats a good deal/whats nice by a punter, you'll instantly respond with the best drink, the price, whats good about it and how many units are in it - You know the 'regulars' by there first name - And they know yours! - And you wonder why there all in there 60s/70s - You feel comfortable enough to interupt the manager and ask for a bar tab for a mates brithday, while there in the middle of a meeting with there boss! - If you dont order an alcaholic drink the staff wonder if your alright and ask if you want a shot of vodka with it um.... these have all happened... im worried... glad I dont drink anymore. Interesting thread Regards GiGo
Im sorta glad i stayed at home when i went to uni, tho im sad that i missed out on the countless fun most folks had.
Im so glad I didn't stay at home - this is just so much better. Plus I know I can live by myself now, so thats one less scary hurdle once im done in uni You know youre a student when... - International drinking rules become a part and parcel of normal life.
- You get invited to a xmas party for "loyal customers" by the Manager! w00t free drinks and food for me at the 12.12.
- when all your clothes have your nickname on the back then a number - you just take the lecture notes off webct, - liquid lunches become the standard - your car is parked outside with no petrol because the tenner you were going to put in got you lunch instead
- when you go to bed on monday and wake up wednesday - when your girlfriend blanks you after a night out and you cant remember why
When despite a 15-hour work week always wind up doing assignments ten minutes before the deadline When you find yourself replying to this damn thread even though you have a full laboratory report due in tomorrow morning...
- when you justify to yourself that a 200 word intro to a 10,000 word essay is good enough for a days work and watch TV instead. - Waking up is a good excuse to go back to bed - Drink mountain dew instead of water because its just as effective as coffee but doesn't take 5 min to make.
Too true, even by the third year, I was still promising myself I'd start assignments the day they were given to me, but ended up cramming it all in within the last week. That's half the fun of being a student, working under pressure - only because you've put yourself in that situation.
I have the task of 3 assignments totalling 17,000 words to do before the 15th Dec. Should have started them 2 months ago Stupid CS
In your dorm. Your fridge is filled with frozen pizza & beer Your fridge has a weird smell One of your walls is covered by empty beer crates General. You get drunk at your dorm with friends before going out, to save money You eat 1,67 euro frozen pizza's all week to save money for beer In the weekends, you catch up sleep from the week Alot of your friends have never seen you sober You go to bed after sunset
When you have road signs/traffic cones in your house When you haven't seen a positive bank balance for a year
