You know you're an architecture student when:

You celebrate space and observe your birthday. (now i'm not sure yet since my birthday doesnt fall on school semesters hehe.)
Coffee and Red Bull are tools, not treats.

You think it's possible to create space.
You've slept more than 20 hours non-stop in a single weekend. (me not that extreme yet.. maybe just 12 hours)
You fight with inanimate objects. (like bass wood bits that get stuck to my tweezers, and penknifes that refuse to be locked)
You've fallen asleep in the bathroom. (that reminds me: i have overslept for exactly one stop in two consecutive days -.-)
Your brother or sister thinks he or she is an only child.
You've listened to all your CDs in less than 48 hours. (and i initially thought that my music collection in the laptop was large. guess i need more cds muahaha)

You've brushed your teeth and washed your hair in the university's bathroom. (i forgot my toothpaste one fine day.)
You've discovered the benefits of having none or very short hair, and you've started to appreciate inheriting baldness. (that does sound attractive though i'm not planning to cut soon haha)
You've used an entire role of film to photograph the sidewalk. (seriously that is very exciting. everyone should do that to see the permuations and the details u can see even in sth as mundane as the sidewalk)
You know the exact time the vending machines are refilled. (early in the mornings around 4/5am i think)
You always carry your deodorant.
You become excellent at recycling when making models. (modelling materials are SOOOO expensive! one should always steal stuff like acrylic from recycling bins in the year one studios hehe.)
When you try to communicate, you make a continuous and monotonous whine.
You've danced YMCA with excellent choreography at 3 am and without a single drop of alcohol in your body.- Not so much YMCA. Any song actually.
You take notes and leave messages with a rapidograph and colour markers.(i like my rotrings!)
You combine breakfast, lunch and dinner into one single meal.

You make numerous photocopies that you haven't read yet.
A kneaded eraser and a flex curve are all you need to have fun. (i mean trash is enough lor)
You think you can "design space".
You hear the word "Party" and know it has nothing to do with your weekend plans. (that must be the famous parti-models)
You have tried to squeeze sixteen hours of work into fifteen minutes . . .and succeeded. (now i'm not very sure about that. i only know that i only succeeded in penning 2 out of my 6 ortho drawings T.T i seriously love penning ortho drawings la! and i can do it quite nicely me thinks.)
You think things other than words read well.
You think trash can be artistic. (come on everyone should worship trash!)
