The Species ( Part I )

Thought I would come up with some definitions for the species called Grad Student ! (based on personal experiences may not be applicable to all ...)
Here goes,

#1 Grad student is a nocturnal species that haunts around the lab at unearthly hours....

Is a species that,

#2 Starts its research when it is reprimanded by its advisor in its dreams

#3 Starts working on a report at 6 AM for a meeting at 10 AM

#4 Starts assignments a few hours before deadline

#5 Hunts the campus for free food

#6 Worries about its thesis atleast once a day

#7 "At times" not sure why it is in grad school

#8 Doesnt enroll for classes scheduled before 11 Am or classes scheduled on Friday

#9 Feels liberated on Thursday evenings (refer #8)

#10 Hates Monday mornings

#11 that is either a 'TA which hates grading and wants to be an RA' or an 'RA that wants to teach'

#12 Is addicted to Caffine

#13 Writes such useless blogs when it has lots of work to do ....

*Gotta fix that bug !!*
