2. Other Cegeps always seem to finish before us

4. Getting a J-Walking ticket for running through the red light from the Forum and Alexis Nihon between exams and crying
5. Getting a million mios from your classmates who "lost their notes"
6. Tim Hortons and Starbucks become too packed to even buy a coffee

8. The library books on reserve are ALL gone
9. The 1st floor escalator always breaks
