Every university has its own unique things that nobody but it's students can relate to or understand. I'm willing to bet that Texas Tech has the best list around, but maybe I'm biased. Anyway, if you're a Red Raider like me, maybe you can relate to some of these situations!

1. The summer is like slowly baking in an oven but then four months later it's like the North Pole.

2. You're not unfamiliar with getting dirt in your mouth because the wind is so strong.

3. If you're not obsessed with Market Street, you're wrong.

4. Everyone knows about the Republic, even if you don't live there.

5. You've been to Spanky's at least once.

6. You get the urge to yell "RAIDER" at anyone wearing Texas Tech gear even if you're home for the summer, and you fully expect a "POWER" back.

7. "We will Hit 'Em, We Will Wreck 'Em, We Will Wreck 'Em Texas Tech" is how the song goes, but not necessarily how anyone sings it at the games.

8. You know who Brother Jeb is

9. Everyone has a picture with the Texas Tech Seal at the front of campus.

10. Everyone seems kinda concerned about the pigeons on campus.

11. You've been personally affected by Humans v. Zombies.

12. The stairs in the MCOM building. That is all.

13. The two for $8 movie deal at the drive-in saves your life and bank account.

14. The dogs you can pet at the library during finals week also saves your life.

15. If you've never been to J&B for a caffeine fueled study binge, you're doing college wrong.

16. Having all your Facebook friends think you're obsessed with J&B Coffee because you always check in there, but really you just need the free WIFI.

17. The WIFI on campus in general is just a hit or miss (usually a miss).

18. Everyone said you wouldn't like Lubbock before you came, but you're actually kind of in love with it.

19. The people in Lubbock are so nice. Like so nice.

20. You've thought about purchasing a kayak so you can get to class when the roads flood.

21. The day the Chick-Fil-A on campus serves Chicken Minis is the day you start living.

Blessed to be a Red Raider!!! Wreck 'Em Tech!
