Life as a BROKE College Student....

Signs You're Really Broke

American Express calls and says: "Leave home without it!"

Your idea of a 7-course meal is taking a deep breath outside Mike's Place.

You skip class so you can stay in Christian Cafeteria through the breakfast/lunch switch.

You've rolled so many pennies, you've formed a psychic bond with Abe.

The Log Cabin no longer calls you to subscribe.

Your credit card companies raised the rates from 6.9% to 24.9%.

You see your roommate as a large fried chicken in tennis shoes.

You receive care packages from soldiers in Iraq.

Your bologna has no first name.

You rob Peter...and then rob Paul.

You finally flip your couch cushions, hoping to find change.

You chase down that penny that dropped at the U-Scan.

You know all the 'free lunch' days offered around campus.

The food court in the Student Union supplies you with all your kitchen condiments.

Consumer Credit Counseling services said "No."

Ramen noodles are a luxury...you just can't afford.

....hope you guys will have pity on me and visit at least one of the orange links in the right column

....a penny saved...oh dang...is just a penny.
