-If you have ever price shopped for Top Ramen. (It's a rip off if it's more than 25 cents for a cup of Ramen)
-If you have ever written a check for 45 cents. (Well, not exactly 45 cents, but still :lol: )
-If you get more e-mail than mail. (And you check it every 5 minutes, too, just cos your amazed at how fast internet service is on campus.)
-If you have ever seen two consecutive sunrises without sleeping.
-If you can pack your worldly possessions into the back of a pick-up.
-If you live in an area that is smaller than most mobile homes.

-If you eat at the cafeteria because it's "free, even though it sucks."
-If you wake up 10 minutes before class.
-If you wear the same jeans 13 days in a row -- without washing them. (Washing clothes was never a priority. I think I did it a total of 5 times in the whole year, since I went home like every other month)
-If your idea of "doing your hair" is putting on a baseball cap. ( Oh God, this is like reading an autobiography :lol: )
-If you carry less than a dollar on you at all times because that's all you have.
-If you celebrate when you find a quarter. (Sad :lol: )
-If you've learned to ignore/sleep through fire alarms
-If you're more likely to bring shower shoes than a towel when you bathe
-If finding urine/vomit/trash bags in the elevator doesn't phase you (After a while, you just expect it)
-If you pay more for books than you do for food
-If the idea of classes on Friday boggles your mind
-If you've forgotten when school ended in June instead of May
-You continue to dial 9 before calling anyone (This one I win by default since I HAVE to dial a 9 before calling anyone. However, the cell has come and rescued me from that.)
