When you stay up on TSR late at night because your house hasn't turned the central heating on at night - and you just don't want to strip and climb into your freezing cold bed.. :frown:


edit: Sadly, 4 years later, this is still relevant.

- you live off soup for several weeks because you can't be bothered cooking 'real' food.
- you start to clean and tidy every inch of your room and willingly do every chore you could possibly think of... just so you don't have to study/work on assignments/etc.
- you have a sick bucket next to your bed, just in case.
You attend a University.

These are great, keep them coming guys :biggrin:

- when you don't recognise the strange stain on your wall and you don't want to know...

- when you call your mum for the millionth time asking how to make cheese sauce... :P

When you call your mom asking to put £5.50 into your account cause then with the £4.50 you have you can withdraw £10...(true story:frown::frown:)
When you go to sleep at 5:30am and are up at 7, then sleep during the day
You wake up with strange bruises, strange phone numbers in ur contacts and wake up in a random house
You are used to watching a broken tv
"Cleanliness" is simply out of sight, out of mind
Music is on constantly
You argue with parents about the taste of alcohols (whoops)

No way! I hate Domino's though ... Too doughy :tongue:


However it's really expensive, even with vouchers...cooking (or at least trying to cook) your own food is much better value :biggrin:

You throw out a plate because you can't be bothered to wash it.

Cold pasta with dodgy cheese is ****ing delicious!

You find yourself agonising over whether to fork out the £2 for some lunch.

Carry on? When was your "I am definately a student" moment?

:biggrin:
