You Know You're A Zoobie When...

After almost completing my freshman year here at Brigham Young University, I've made some observations about the people and environment here. It truly is a strange place. And so, to my fellow BYU students and to you alumni out there: here are 22 signs you're a Zoobie. Enjoy. (And feel free to add on in the comments.)

1. You think it's illegal to walk on the grass.
2. You think being 24 and single will classify you as an old maid/spinster.
3. You get pissed when somebody doesn't know who Jimmer Fredette is.
4. You gasped because I said pissed.
5. At least 10% of the class is always at least 10 minutes late.
6. Your second favoritest team is whoever plays Utah.
7. Cosmo is your personal hero, second only to Jimmer.
8. You go jogging at four in the morning.
9. You jog in your BYU t-shirt and honor-code-inappropriately-short shorts.
10. You've hiked the Y more times than you can count.
11. You think you're rebellious because you have a mustache.
12. You realize that you have as much chance of finding a spot to park as Rebecca Black forgetting what day comes after Thursday.
13. You have your biology class and sacrament meeting in the same room.
14. You get all excited when you see a black person on campus.
15. You start out class, whether it's Book of Mormon or Calculus, with a prayer. And sometimes a hymn.
16. You are no longer surprised to see flashmobs on campus because they happen so often. (Speaking of which, if you haven't seen the video of our student section flashmob at the last home basketball game, check it out. We're rockin'. CLICK!)
17. You count homework assignments or study sessions as dates.
18. You notice when the bell tower plays a new song.
    
19. Some of your term papers are on dating and marriage.
20. You're too lazy to bring your scriptures to class so you just download them on your phone or look them up on your laptop.
21. You lose a good portion of your friends not to drugs or jail, but to missions and marriage.
    
22. You have to talk to your bishop about breaking curfew.
23. You know that Ultimate Frisbee is a recognized sport.
