There are many things I miss. But if I had to pick one: college. I miss college, much like every 20-something. College is full of so many memories. Sure when I think about how much money people spend on degrees and if they end up using them after college is another issue. But the times spent with people between classes, on weekends, walking to classes, SPRING BREAK, and everything else is just an awesome memory.
You never meet people like the ones you lived with, drank with, partied with, slept with, and laughed with in college. Life after college becomes a little harder to handle. You begin to feel like your role in life is getting less and less from what it once was. You begin to feel like Stan felt in that episode of South Park when he feels everything is turning to Shit.
But that's the time in your life when you have to find out a way to make yourself happy. Hobbies get picked up. Hopefully you found someone you can connect to emotionally either during or after college. College used to be considered a four year endeavor. Now it's spilling into a five year plus adventure for everyone turning 18 and wanting to explore every avenue of life before they think it leaves them. If college was a 7 year adventure, there would still be people turning it into a 10 year venture. When people have most of their utilities paid for, they will do just about everything possible to squeeze every last drop of juice from that delicious fruit of youth.
I really miss college.
