Their excitement about initiation, fraternity guys, and "greek stuff" was contagious and fun. I ended up rooming with three of them when they moved into the house their sophomore year and my senior year, because it was more fun to be with them than on the quieter Senior Wing.

I just wanted to say how much I agree with this post. I graduated from college a few years ago and have many friends who are married and or have kids. I kind of get tired of hearing them talk about things I have no idea how to relate to. i love my friends, but get sooooo tired of talking about these things. This is, in part, why I volunteer with the teens at the Library. it is really great to have a group of 16-19 year old (close to adults than kids) that I can go and hang out with and goof off and not talk about margaged and having problems with kids and kids teachers, ect. It reminds me of how much fun the little things in life are and at the same time i really enjoy talking to them about college and school ect.
Also, I would have to agree that it might sound like the OP is a little depressed. This can easily happen and maybe it might help to do something new. I can get depressed eaily if I am constantly doing the same routine day after day.
Good luck
