Another difference between college life and my old school life (note, I went to an Indian international school so it is slightly different from your good ol government school):

School friend (calls me up a day before finals exams for the semester): Hey, when did you start studying for tomorrow's paper?
Me: Uh, 3 days ago
Friend: Oh dear, that's kinda last minute :S

College friend (calls me up a day before finals exams for the semester): Hey, when did you start studying for tomorrow's paper?
Me: Uh, 3 days ago
Friend: Wah, so early!!
