Well, it's been almost 10 years since college and I try to stay in drinking shape, if you know what I mean.

College was a time that you will never have again. Young, stupid, drunk, lots of ladies - only time to burn.

I guess I never appreciated it at the time, but those were the days - the days that we can never have back.

I miss college too.

As much as I miss college sometimes, I think the post-college years are actually a lot better. I'm partial to the stability of having money to do things you want to do (and buy things you want to buy - like my s2k). And although you guys out thee may disagree, there is something to be said for the stability you can find in those post-college relationships (you know, the ones that last longer than your beer buzz)

I miss law school. I knew it was going to be fun when the faculty threw a kegger on campus during orientation. (I went to Tulane All law schools are the same, so New Orleans was great place to take Torts and Civ Pro.)

I don't really miss college that much. I studied my ass off when I was there. Engineering is a pretty hard major to be in. I also partied hard too. Gotta keep that balance between studying and partying.

What I miss most about college was just the ease of meeting new people. There is no way in hell that you'll ever meet more people in your life than at college.

Man, I'm entering my sophomore year and while I do enjoy the people at college, I also can't wait to get the hell out! I'd rather be doing something I enjoy than studying and taking stupid classes that serve no purpose except to fulfill a requirement. I look forward to the day where I can go out and make my own money (not little amounts from summer jobs) and be independent. Most people may disagree with me, but in college I see too many people acting stupid with the excuse that they're young so they're allowed to be stupid.

Of course, ask me 5 years later and maybe I would like to be back in college...guess I'll just have to wait and see.

I miss it as well except I had it better than most, see I wasn't actually going to school. While my wife was getting her Masters Degree at Ohio University I worked and took in all of the "college Life" without having to worry about studying or exams. It was great and I miss it from time to time.

Well, at least I have no stress-just sleep, eat and play. Retirement (especially early retirement) does make you feel like a kid again. My college days are so far behind me (nearly 31 years) that they are but a dim memory.
