I know you are, but what am I?

You know you are a student when:

You shop at Ross because you can’t justify the expensive stores like target and walmart.

You try to make one piece of chicken stretch for atleast 2 meals – 3 if you are really lucky.

Your child’s favorite toy is your kitchen spatula, and if they are extra good, maybe a mixing bowl.

You keep all the lights off, and doors and windows open, because cold air costs money.

You hang half of the wet laundry all over the house, so you don’t have to pay an extra .75 for a drying cycle.

You only change diapers when they are REALLY full so the box lasts longer.

When you go out to eat, your first impulse is to ask if they accept foodstamps.

Date night has to be on Monday or Wednesday when Redbox is free.

The number behind the minus (-) sign on the bank statement has more zeros than any math class taught you was possible.
