21 Signs You've Finally Shaken your Inner Student
1. When September rolls around you think, Gotta check out the new TV season, rather than, Gotta buy new ballpoint pens and spiral notebooks.
2. You drink coffee to wake you up at 8 AM – not to keep you up at 3 AM.
3. The number to access your office voice mail has nudged the phone number for Domino’s Pizza out of your short-term memory bank.
4. You’re too busy living life to spend too much time finding yourself.
5. you’re more interested in what a potential boyfriend does to earn a living that what his vies are on Marxism and modern-day Cuba
6. You firmly believe sweats should only be worn in the gym or in the comfort of your own home – and that baseball caps belong, duh, at a baseball game.
7. Those pocket-protector geeks you would never date in college? You’re sending them your resume and slipping them your phone number.
8. You’ve finally stopped expecting your job to have a spring break.
9. You splurge on expensive shampoo now, since you don’t have to worry about your 12 dormmates using it all up when you leave it in the communal bathroom.
10. You pick up a magazine with “Hottest Fall Fashions” on the cover while completely ignoring the one that screams “Back-to-School Bargains!”
11. Those torture, philosophy-spouting college boys who once seemed so sensitive now just seem like slackers who need to get some counseling.
12. Instead of homework after dinner, you hit the gym, or have mandatory schmoozing with clients at a black-tie benefit.
13. You can’t remember your exact SAT scor or GPA anymore – and you don’t care.
14. You read novels because you love them – not because you have a paper due on William Faulkner yesterday!
15. You measure time passing in terms of days, months and years instead of semesters.
16. When you watch Felicity, you don’t exactly relate to her angst. But you do think Where were all those cute guys when I was in college?
17. Your urge to experiment manifests itself in new lipsticks, not pharmaceuticals.
18. Remember that cute kid you babysat for in high school? He’s now the starting quarterback at your alma mater.
19. In the supermarket you pass right by the Twinkies and Pop-Tarts and head straight for the produce aisle – your salad days are here!
20. You are free to date the guys your parents hate – because they can no longer threaten to cut off your tuition or take away your car.
21. All that astronomy you studied in college has dwindled down to one impressive piece of knowledge: “Look! The Big Dipper.”
