You know you're a hostelite when...
- You believe that more detergent means cleaner clothes.
- You try to find ways of making the hostel food more interesting.
- You glow when you recieve a parcel from home.
- You would eat anything your mother cooks when you get back home.
- Going out to withdraw cash is an event.
- You start comparing prices of everything you buy.
- Sleep is the biggest luxury of your life.
- A month before going home, you start counting days.
- You need to 'shotgun' a bathroom every morning.
- You shift places to get the best network.
- All phone conversations take place in the corridor.
- You periodically borrow ketchup, pickle, maggi, earphones, shoes, clothes, laptops and everything else from anyone who is willing to share.
- Your room is sacred. Your bed, even more so.
You know you're a hostelite when you are a hostelite. Even though we crib, at the end of the day it's not that bad.
