So here we are, here’s where you belong in the Robbo:

Mostly number 1: You belong in the silent section on the third floor, don’t need to bring your laptop, you’ll always get a seat you devoted work a holics, go forth to the third floor with pride (silently though.)

Mostly number 2: You belong outside smoking right next to the no smoking sign. When it finally gets abit chilly you belong in the canteen drinking a cappuccino.

Mostly number 3: You belong in the group study area on the ground floor where you can talk freely to your friends, no work is achieved but at least you’ve gotten here.

Mostly number 4: You belong here in the basement in the dead of night rushing out an essay so you can join the worldies in House of Smith before luring them home with your charm.
