Mom’s home cooking has been replaced by Ubereats

For the next eight months, you’re on the Ubereats diet. It’s not quite like mom’s, but it will have to do! Besides, cooking for yourself is crazy talk; there’s no time for that!

The library is your new home

When there’s space, you’re pulling up a chair and stay in the library for hours on end. You’ve been here from when the sun sets to when it rises. You already eat and sleep here, so you might as well claim permanent residency.

You can’t go one minute without mentioning you’re an engineer

“What? That’s not me,” you say. Okay, sure; let’s say for you, this is not true. I guess when you’re in the best program and most valuable program it’s hard not to talk about it 24/7.

You know you’re in the wrong room if you see more than three girls

Face it- there’s only a handful of girls in engineering, so it’s no wonder you’d get a little suspicious.

Who knows how many times you’ve barely passed an exam or an entire course because of a bell curve. Love it and respect it always.

Failed the midterm, but still manage to be top of the class

Have 2 midterms, 4 assignments, 1 presentation and 3 labs in one week

Maybe your profs didn’t get the memo you have other classes, but for the next month you’ll be doing nothing but studying. Better get to it!

Essays drive you insane

They don’t come up often, but when they do, you can bet it will take a long time to write.
