PA

You know you are at a school full of nerds when...

1. PE isn't called PE but rather PA for physical activity because PE stands for petroleum engineering.
2. And when the goal of PA is to get kids to put down their books and calculators and just have fun for an hour and half a week.
3. And when you are playing dodgeball and think hey these guys are nerds how hard can they throw? just to find out that nerds have a lot of pent up stress and dont mind taking it out on girls they dont know and will probably never talk to, i.e. they can actually throw pretty hard.
4. On the weekends it is normal to find a room full of guys not partying or anything but playing World of Warcraft or someother video game.
5. When you hear words like lon capa, kinematics, and partial derivatives and know what they mean and also cringe at the thought of them.
6. When you have quiet hours from 7pm-7am on the weekdays and 11pm-11am on the weekends so there is a quiet study environment.
7. And when you have kids walking through the halls at 7:06 pm telling people to be quiet because it is now quiet hours and they are trying to study calc, physics, or something of the sort and are being completely serious.
8. When seeing shirts like "I r=1-sin(x) Calculus BC" is normal. (r=1-sin(x) is an equation for a heart, so the shirt says "I heart Calculus BC")
9. Your chemistry professor really does love to blow things up and do all kinds of crazy experiments even though they are against the fire code.
10. And this same professor loves the elements song. If you dont know what that is, look it up. You will understand.
11. When jokes about CU and CSU are common and are often about there lack of knowledge compared to us.
12. When you are walking down the hall and see a guy and he turns his head or completely turns around because he is too embarrassed to talk to a girl.
13. Or the guy says hi super awkward and you try to talk to him and he answers with short comments so you just give up trying to talk to him.
14. When every door is held open for you because boys here may not talk to you but are very polite. (maybe on is from the south?)
15. When you are playing dodgeball in gym and a guy jokes about finding the velocity of the ball or the friction of your feet on the mat.
16. When a calculus equation takes over one line to write down and so you have to continue on the next line or turn your paper horizontal just to find out it doesnt fit that way either.
17. When you are complaining about how physics is so hard and that it takes so long to do one problem and you are then told that a 10 minute problem is nothing compared to a problem that takes over an hour and probably about 4 pages to complete.
18. When there is a huge party because the football team actually won a game.
19. When you are told that your sorority is making a float for homecoming with one of the frats and that this is the first year the frat has ever done an activity for homecoming with girls.
20. And lastly, when your theme for homecoming is Space Blaster.

I LOVE IT!!
