20 Tell-Tale Signs You Are Definitely a Broke College Student

Being a college student comes with a certain persona, and these all accurately describe the many years of expensive education. 

You might be a college student if…

You could find the Ramen in your local Walmart, blindfolded.

You average less than 5 hours of sleep a night.

You carry at most a dollar on you because that’s all you have.

You celebrate when you find a quarter, or dime, sometimes even a penny.

You ask yourself if you really need to do laundry this month.

“Getting up early?? is 15 minutes before class.

Your textbooks are more expensive than what you have in your life savings.

You’re the master of cooking anything in the microwave.

Free food during the first week of school is the only way you eat for a month.

You take Vitamin C like it’s an addiction. Nobody has time to get sick.

Leggings and yoga pants are the only pants you want to wear.

When you find paper or pencils on the ground, you take them.

You consider it a blessing when you go to bed by 2 AM.

You’ll take anything that people are handing out for free.

There are four food groups: Pizza, Ramen, Soda, and Coffee.

You’ve skipped a lecture so you could study for another class.

Your “Study Groups?? always include free food, otherwise you don’t go.

“Bar hopping?? is just how you get free drinks.

You’ve ever been to Walmart at 1, 2, or 3 AM.

Your daily workout is you running to class so you’re not late, again.

Being in college is great, who doesn’t love spending money they don’t even have on an education you might not even get to use? Make the best of these years, they are the last step before we become fully official adults.
