ROFL

i viewed the 'you know you're IB when..' group on facebook and laughed at the level of painful truth written on there. the grammar mistake in the group name is not a grammar mistake, it's intentional. here be an excerpt;



We are a pretentious society of people. Get over it.

*********************

-You can see individual air molecules vibrating.

-You begin speaking in a language that only you and fellow IB-ers can understand.

-You discover the aesthetic beauty of school supplies.

-You begin to talk to yourself, then disagree about the subject, get into a nasty row about it, lose, and refuse to talk to yourself for the rest of the day.

-You can spell "Baccalaureate".

-"Friends" and "fellow IB-ers" are interchangeable.

-You go to bed at 3AM and think, "Oh, it's an early night!"

-You've fooled yourself into believing that colleges actually care whether you're in IB or not.

-You write sentences on multiple-choice tests.

-You manage to complete a semesters worth of homework the day before the term ends.

-Your idea of impure thoughts is whether or not to copy math homework.

-You've developed an imprint of your book bag in your back.

-Your books weigh more than you do.

-You consider giving up going to the bathroom permanently to give you more time to study.

-Pressed for time, you conclude a history essay with, "And they lived happily every after. Amen."

-You find that you overreact when you get 2 points marked off on your homework.

-The simplest words you know are at least 10 letters long.

-When you are home sick, you can't help but wonder what work you're missing and what your homework is.

-When you're watching TV, you feel guilty because not all of your homework is done.

-You still get kicks saying "Your epidermis is showing."

-You think "getting high" is a reference to grades.

-You're one of the few people who realize that Catcher in the Rye isn't about baseball.

-You think MTV is a formula for mass, temperature and volume.

-You worry about hyphens.

-You've mastered the art of procrastination so well that your research paper finishes printing just seconds before you have to leave for school.

-You can't enjoy your holiday break because you spend the entire thing worrying about all the homework you need to do.

-Energy drinks and coffee become a part of your diet.

-You miss school to do homework.

-You realize that if you could actually study 'by osmosis', it would technically be diffusion since water would not be involved.


ESPECIALLY true is the skipping school to catch up with homework part. oh-my-God.
