Re: You know you're a student when...Love reading these
- You wear pyjamas all day and your party dress to bed.
- Napping in the days becomes the best thing ever.
- You have multi-vitamin tablets to make up for the lack of fruit n' veg.
- Pasta is a necessary survival tool.
- Loan day just about beats Christmas.
- 40% has never been so acceptable in your life.
- You no longer need a tea spoon to stir your brew (chopstick, fork, knife or pen will all do!)
I love being a student.

Re: You know you're a student when...When you eat pasta for breakfast because you have cereal, but no milk.
When ringing Student Finance England to talk them into giving you the money they owe you becomes your biggest expense
If you want a free haircut, hang around near hair salons and see if they'll give you one with student stylists for free(Original post by jendra9311)
You eat 12p noodles for a week straight just so you can afford to get a haircut
I've got a free haircut (that apparently would have cost £60!) just by hanging around Chalk Farm Road/Camden Market.

Re: You know you're a student when...-when you learn how to cook something, so you cook it every day for a fornight because it beats ready meals
-when you forget your keys and phone and have to climb through the ground floor kitchen's window to get into your 2nd floor flat
-when you spend most of the time wondering where all the free time goes considering you only have 10 hours of lectures a week -

-the weather is the most exciting thing EVER... (though my class at school had a bit of a reputation for being a little weather obsessed)... the number of latenight/early morning messages i sent in the last three years simply saying "SNOW!!!" ... id keep getting out of bed to check it was still snowing 
-anything free is exciting... pens, notebooks, glow sticks?, sweeties... i miss freshers fairs

Re: You know you're a student when...When you know you should do some work and then you see that you have mugs to wash up and that makes your day.
When you will do anything on the internet to avoid your work.
When the fact that the guy in front of your in your lecture has a ladybird in his hair is the most hilarious thing you've seen all week. -

Re: You know you're a student when...Or you pay £3000 a year for a Modern Languages degree but order the set texts in English(Original post by Muninn)
You took up cooking/baking just to procrastinate from doing assignments.
You realise you ordered a book in the wrong language and read it using google translator rather than forking out £10 for another one.

Re: You know you're a student when...You go into the kitchen to find that 3 months worth of washing up accumulated by your tramp housemates has disappeared. Glad that someone finally got off their arse and did something, you then go to get a plate out of the cupboard to find the washing up, still with food stuck onto it.
