    Yeah, I *really* wish I paid more attention in class and tried to actually learn more rather than just trying to get through and pass.....

    You don't have to stop learning new things just because you're not in school. If it's something you love to do - keep doing it.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    Does anyone else still have their notes from class? I have them in a large binder. :)
    drivingrl: "Will I ever get to meet Gwen Stefani?"
    kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.

    Next!"

    I did for ages, but my mother was tired of storing them at my parents house and I don't have room at my new place, so I finally had to throw them all out... :(

    almost 8 years out and i miss it...not like i did when i was only a few years out...but man sometimes i just get really nostalgic looking at pictures or something. just the whole thing about being away from home for the first time and having zero responsibilites (other than going to class half the time) was fucking great...nothing like walking down College Hill at Bloomsburg after class and seeing about 10 people hanging out on my porch, keg in tow, sublime or marley or pearl jam blasting from the stereo...ahh good times indeed.

    anyone go to Bloomsburg here by any chance? i still get up there once a year or so for a little reunion with friends.

    The only thing I miss from college was all the partying I used to do. I don't miss it all the time, but every once in a while I get the nostalgia of it all. Overall though, I much enjoy life after college as I prefer having money to being broke and being able to buy certain luxuries that I couldn't afford in school. Oh yeah, not having to eat ramen is kinda nice too...

    I dunno man.

    I make good money now, and was broke as shit in college.

    The partying and the hot ass chicks just might be better than my fancy salary.

    Shit. I'd go back to college in a fuckin heatbeat. The biggest concern I had was being able to make it out of bed by noon for some classes. :lol: That and finding "shit". 8-)

    The being broke part wasn't much fun. But I sure do miss turning off that alarm and deciding not to go to class....can't do that w/ work. Today definitely would have been one of those days...

    true...I think I miss going to school 'full time' and that was only 15 hours a week...but I also worked full time at teh mall...that sucked. Especially since I had to bus it everywhere. Freaking weirdos on the bus.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    As I leave to go to work, I see this thread, and yes indeed, I DO miss college, to include my apartment, the friends, class, and the coffee hang. Best time of my life hands down to date.
