Design Students

If you are architecture student you've probably experienced:
-the taste of wood glue :I
-changes in your vocabulary : homework to project, ball to sphere, etc :)
-you don't understand how somebody can spend less than $20 at the supplies store :I
-you hate people telling you "go to sleep" or "do you still have a lot of work?" :)
-your friends and you don't have the same concept of work "oh, well do it right before class" :)
-you've slept more than 20 straight hours on weekends :I
-you can easily discuss with authority the effects of caffeine on different drinks :)
-no matter the effort you put in a project, somebody will always say “why don’t you add this? or “why don’t you change this here? or “i think that…but…yeah, its ok? :)
-you’ve heard all your ipod songs in a week :)
-whenever you get invited somewhere, it is followed by “or do you have a lot of homework? :I
-you write down a quick message with rapidographs, lead holders, markers and ink :)
-you have more pictures of landscapes and places than of people :)
-your worst nightmare consists of not finishing a project :)
-someone once called you “lazy"? and you wanted them murdered :))
-you can live without human contact, sunlight, food, but if your plotter’s ink runs out… chaos!!! :)))
-you don’t care about sports cars, your favorite car is the one where you can put in your model :S
-you design spectacular things without the idea of the cost :)
-you have the modern mark : a blister in your palm’s hand for the constant use of your mouse :I (its more to because of the architectural pen which has such a monotonous design!)
-everybody tells you how they admire your work, “but there is no money for it? :I
-you’ve gained the ability to sleep in whatever surface: pencils, keyboards, backpacks, your studio mates, food, etc :)
-you always have the idea that your project will always be recognized :)
-when you finally have free time to go out you keep thinking “who was the idiot that designed the restaurant’s bathroom?? “who designed this menu?? or “who designed this [chair, table, lighting, fork, etc]? HAHAHAHA! YEAAA!!! I did that at Wild Wild Wet just now!
-you've been at many sunrises, yet you've never seen one LOL

Ziza's:
-we designers, dont talk. we draw. (Yubba! Pretty much!!)
-we dont read instructions (Seriously, we don't!)
-khayal alot. but not smoking. to some! (Yea we daydream...)
- fashionably late. so if u guys wanna date a designer, make sure u bring something to entertain urself while waiting. ;P (Hahah... not sure of that though)

Mine:
After a Final crit in your class, 99.9% of the time, there will be someone crying.
After a crit in your class, 99,9% of the time, half the class would be swearing the "Simon" of the panel.
During a crit in your class, 0.1% of the time, you pay attention 100% of the presentations.
