4. Sometimes feeling like you’re doing a degree in Latin

5. Most of your friends are in your lab group

6. And at least one of them is Asian

7. Thinking Arts students are stupid

8. But you don’t mind, cause you can break loads of expensive glassware and not give a shit, as they’re paying for it.

12. Being really tempted to drink the high purity water when you’re super hungover in labs.

13. Coming to the conclusion that everything you’re being taught is bullshit and will all be disproved in 100 years.
