You know you're studying engineering when…
You come out of a lecture and feel that you wouldn’t mind being hit by a bus.
You are doing maths that the maths students don’t cover until the 2nd year.
Using a hyphen (-) instead of a minus (−) loses you 1% of the module.
You know the Greek and Arabic alphabets better than the language students.
A 4 hour day is an easy day.
A 9 hour day is still an easy day.
You are up at 3am in the morning trying to finish yet another piece of coursework asking yourself… why?
Shelf stacking at Tesco looks like an attractive career option.
You come out of tutorials feeling like you have just gone 12 rounds with Mike Tyson.
You feel bitter contempt towards anyone complaining of 2 lectures in a row.
Someone complains about ‘take away exams’ you feel a sudden urge to hospitalise them.
A lecture on Control Engineering leaves your ass raw and bleeding.
Even Sunday starts at 9am.
It’s the norm that you can’t fit an equation on 1 line of a page.
Handing in an assignment just means that’s there’s a new one to complete.
Time is measured in submission deadlines.
You could run a marathon in the time it takes to do 1 question.
24 hours in a day doesn’t seem enough.
You find out you have 3x as many exams as practically everyone else.
You frequently ask yourself why on earth are you doing this.
You are used to covering a ridiculously large span of subjects to the same standard as the respective degree students.
You would assume a horse is a sphere to make the maths easier.
Your best friend is your calculator.

damn. i can't resist to translate this and put it in my blog.. hehe..
peristiwa yang akan melahirkan engineer yang kematian jiwa..satu kesedihan untuk diratapi..pemisahan elemen kehidupan daripada ilmu...inilah pestrukturan sekularisasi..lecturer engineering perlu dicerahkan juga...
