You just might be a graduate student if:

  • you can tell the time of day by looking at the traffic flow at the library.
  • professors don't really care when you turn in work anymore.
  • you find the bibliographies of books more interesting than the actual text.
  • you actually hope your professor assigns homework.
  • you have ever brought a scholarly article to a bar.
  • you rate coffee shops by the availability of outlets for your laptop.
  • you have accepted guilt as an inherent feature of relaxation.
  • you find yourself explaining to children that you are in "20th grade".
  • you start refering to stories like "Snow White et al."
  • You consider caffeine to be a major food group.
  • You appreciate the fact that you get to choose which twenty hours out of the day you have to work.
  • you can identify universities by their internet domains
  • your apartment is smaller that your parents’ garage (and more poorly furnished)
  • you include the words paradigm and dialectic in letters to your parents.
