Man 10 to noon is the perfect time for your classes. Early enough that you can get out and have the whole day to do what you want, but late enough that you can get up at a reasonable hour like 7 or 8 and have a cup of coffee and read over your notes or finish homework. Absolute brilliancy
Night classes are also chill, find it easier to concentrate there. I would say the ****tiest time to take classes would be 1-5pm, especially in the winter those classes hog up all the daylight
One of my classes (twice per week) let out at like 11:30 AM, senior year of college. That was the best. It just so happened I had quite a few hours till the next class in the late afternoon.
So what did I like to do? I had a meal plan those days. I'd go to the dining hall's takeout, and get a sub (they call them subs there but we call them hoagies - same thing).. Italian hoagie. I'd walk back to my (single!) dorm room and enjoy that with a few beers (usually limit to 1-3). Now, their hoagies aren't like Primo Hoagies down here, but they were always pretty decent. I'll say that I've had worse hoagies.
Lol, I miss those days. I was always on the meal plan. I never had to make my own food. Their food wasn't always good - but they served baked ziti a lot that was usually good.
No, I wasn't irresponsible as a student. I got things done. Got decent grades.

I only recently learned that the word "hoagie" is only used in the Delaware Valley, everywhere else in the US says sub. I'm convinced it's because of Wawa's hoagiefest perpetuating that word, but I'm not certain they started the use of it here.

They didn't start it.
I've never even had a Wawa hoagie, lol. There are better options locally for me.
The most well-known vendor is, of course, Subway. I've never eaten a sub at Subway, though. Obviously they have locations everywhere, including this region.
I've also seen "Jersey Mike's Subs" even here in hoagie country. Never had one from there, but they sound good.
BTW, about the name. According to Wikipedia:
Quote:
A submarine sandwich, also known as a sub, wedge, hoagie, hero, or grinder is a type of sandwich that consists of a length of bread or roll split lengthwise and filled with a variety of meats, cheeses, vegetables, and condiments
...
The Italian sandwich originated in several different Italian American communities in the Northeastern United States from the late 19th to mid-20th centuries
..
The use of the term "submarine" or "sub" (after the resemblance of the roll to the shape of a submarine) is widespread
...
The term hoagie originated in the Philadelphia area. The Philadelphia Bulletin reported, in 1953, that Italians working at the World War I–era shipyard in Philadelphia known as Hog Island, where emergency shipping was produced for the war effort, introduced the sandwich by putting various meats, cheeses, and lettuce between two slices of bread.[citation needed] This became known as the "Hog Island" sandwich; shortened to "Hoggies", then the "hoagie".
I joined the Navy at 16, with no qualifications other than a few GCSEs. Owen, imagine being a 16 year old boy in the military.
How the F is this possible? Child soldier! We didn't allow 16-yo's to join the military even in WWII!

Thankfully i have no driving license so i only eat around the campus area, which is "student's cost" 10-35k rupiahs (roughly £0.60-2.00)
And to think that one of my classmates whose father was in the embassy can get used to "student's cost" meals as well, after 3 years living in Australia
Student canteens have meals here for €2.60, and that's absolutely dirt cheap. If you eat out at a real lunch restaurant the normal rate is €8.90-9.90.

I hate him. Among the top players who I hate the most.
16 & 17 year olds don't get deployed. You need to be over 18 for that. Since people leave school at 16, joining the army is a common choice for many people who maybe didn't get good grades.

Ok, I just find it to be weird. And maybe a bit morally questionable.
Do you get some bonuses from the military? Like easier access to universities later?
Oh it definitely does. Unlike the US, you can claim unemployment benefits in the UK without having worked at all.
