Guest guest Posted October 2, 1999 Report Share Posted October 2, 1999 YOU KNOW YOU'RE OUT OF COLLEGE WHEN: 1. Your salary is less than your tuition. 2. Your potted plants stay alive. 3. Sleeping in a twin-sized bed seems absurd. 4. You keep more food than beer in the fridge. 5. You have to pay your own credit card bill. 6. Mac & Cheese no longer counts as a well-balanced meal. 7. You haven't seen a soap opera in over a year. 8. 8:00 a.m. is not early. 9. You have to file for your own taxes. 10. You hear your favorite song on the elevator at work. 11. You're not carded anymore. 12. You carry an umbrella. 13. You learn that " Bachelor " is nicer term for a jerk. 14. " Extended childhood " only really pertains to your salary, which is a little less than your allowance used to be. 15. " Twenty-something " means over-qualified, under-paid and not married. 16. You start watching the weather channel. 17. Jeans and baseball caps aren't staples in your wardrobe. 18. You can no longer take shots, and smoking gives you a sinus attack. 19. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 7. 20. You stop confusing 401K plan with 10K run. 21. You don't know what time 's closes anymore. 22. Your car insurance goes down. 23. You refer to college students as kids. 24. Your parents start making casual remarks about grandchildren. 25. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of Taco Bell. 26. You are actually watching Melrose & 90210, and not just ripping on it. 27. Matching furniture. 28. Matching plates & silverware. 29. You find yourself getting ready for bed around 9:30. 30. Denny's is no longer considered 'fine dinning'. 31. The thought of living with 4 other people scares you. 32. Relatives stop asking you how classes are going. ________________________________________________________________ Prodigy Members: Try Juno Web free for a full month and experience the difference!
