You Know You're a Community College Student When...

  1. You know the locations of the gym, the cheapest food, the best star-gazing spot, the free printer access, most of the power outlets, and every sofa on campus. (Depending on who you are, the advising center and tutoring center as well.)
  2. You've met people from every walk of life, and they all have the same attitude toward homework.
  3. When you try to post a facebook status, your computer automatically assumes you are on campus. 
  4. Ramen noodles are a food group.
  5. You consider the idea of an "Empty Parking Lot" a legend - no, a myth - about something never seen on campus.
  6. Coffee, energy drinks, and/or caffeinated tea are a staple of life. (I have to recognize them even though I don't drink them - they are like a sleep substitute.)
  7. "What's your major?" and "Where did you go to high school?" are the questions that immediately follow "What's your name?"
  8. Cold pizza is truly the breakfast of champions...now if only I could afford pizza every night.
  9. Your professors talk about growing up in the era of sex, drugs and rock n' roll.
  10. You've got classmates anywhere from your age to fifty years older than you.
