You know you’re a student when...


(Lovingly copied and pasted off Facebook by Hemish. This is from one of those groups where you have to ‘like’ it first to see what innate thing it says – judging by the content, this was probably written by a Queen Mary’s student). LOL!
  • You wake up and wonder where the hell you are.
  • You live off 8p basics noodles from Sainsbury’s.

  • You say "I'm never going to drink again" at least once a week.
  • Power naps become a way of life.
  • You spend half an hour trying to work out if you should get the 20p cheaper toilet paper, then spend £5 a day on ‘hangover food’.

  • No matter how broke you are, there is always enough money to get pissed.
