When you think paying out £10 for a laundry card is ridiculous, so instead you buy your underwear reduced in shops with student discount, and pray to god you never run out of clean clothes.
Yet spending ten pound on a night out is the best idea ever, and so ridiculously cheap you'll probably do it 3 nights this week instead of one.
When sleeping is used to avoid eating.
When any form of free food is acceptable use for 'dinner', pizza at friends houses, food on work breaks, flat mates baking cakes and telling you to help yourself (take half the batch to your room secretly, then pretend you have no idea where they went)
When you wake up and always question immediatley what stupid **** you did the night before.
And the glorious early hours the afternoon moment where all you and your flat mates wake up and slob around the kitchen, one by one cursing at the fact they missed uni dismorning as soon as they walk through the kitchen door.

When it gets the the end of the year, and you have absolutely no idea how you're going to get everything home.
I've had to make sacrifices in this respect - alas, the inflatable pool cue won't be coming home with me!

When going to bed at 1am seems oddly early
when you Mcd drive takeaway twice a week.
When sneaking vodka into clubs and your friends 'minesweeping' (stealing drinks) in clubs seems as the norm, socially tolerated and acceptable behaviour.

- Saucepans make great glasses/dishes
- Your toaster is now your back up cigarette lighter
- You complain that you only ever play ring of fire, but always end up playing it and enjoying it when drunk
- Bacon. Just bacon. So much bacon.
- Your main aim at the end of the year is to get 40% in the exams and hoping to Christ your coursework mark is enough to push it up there.

If you want the hour breakdown for this 'successful living' model, let me know.

What is leisure reading? I've never heard of it.

Leisure reading is reading for leisure, rather than for school. Fiction, non-fiction,
whatever you want, as long as it's not an education textbook.
Glad to see though you're putting thought into my time management model lol
