NHTV Students’ BIGGEST ANNOYANCES CONs PROs “How do you feel today?” - Waking up by (literal) lovebirds while a glimpse of sunshine slips gently along your curtain. LOVE-ly! By Veerle de Boer -The BUZZ ALARM going off when your phone is laying on your bedside table. Like a bomb is waking you up at dawn! - iPhone’s Siri saying: “Good morning, your name. It is 10 o'clock and it’s gonna be a bright and sunny day! - Not to speak about the Sony Xperia V, which does not have an option to pick a song of choice as an alarm sound. - Wearing your brand new sneakers that are the perfect fit and being able to test them while walking to room N.1.222 - Waiting for the ELEVATOR at school! 1 2, 3, 4, come on?! Or even worse, a 1, BROKEN elevator while your class is about to start on the fourth floor AND wearing your highest heels/most uncomfortable flip-flops! - The canteen is like a snack-wall, filling itself with unlimited FRESHLY made food for EVERYONE’S TASTE, which is a CHEAPER option than taking food with you from your own fridge. Marvelous! - Opening hours of the CANTEEN conveniently bypassing the hours that everyone is hungry and in case it’s opened and we do feel like buying food, there is nothing tasty left. -H Having every teacher’s Email, Twitter, Facebook and mobile phone number and deciding whether you hand in by chat, tweet, mail, app or voice message. Within a flexible deadline. - They better make an “I register for every single course PLUS redo straight away and upload this assignment in every digital AND touchable pigeonhole possible” -button! - DUTCH SUMMER basically starting at the same time the new school year starts, with a lot of free hours and classmates that give away cigarettes as if they got them FOR FREE at Albert Heijn. - DUTCH SUMMER ‘restarting’ at the time the new school n year starts. 8 - NO CLASSES TODAY! Interior_Brewed_Oktober2014.indd 8 FRI - Class at 8:30 am on a FRIDAY MORNING while a NHTV party was organized yesterday evening (and yes, you DID go), this particular class ends like 1 hour early and EVERY SINGLE classroom you see is still empty at 9:30 am. Seriously?! 22-10-14 12:05
