It's so weird, because I miss it SO much. BUT, it will never be the same. Sure, I could go back to get my masters, but that wasn't what was fun. Even towards the end of my senior year, when everything was winding down, it just did NOT feel the same. People leave and move on. I mean, I could go back to the fraternity tents and try to relive the football games the way I remember them, but I'd be hanging out with 18 year old sorority and fraternity new members. I have gone back to Columbia for some things and I walked around campus and I could've cried. I mean, not that you can ever be POPULAR in college (at least not the same way as things worked in high school), but I did know TONS of people. Then I went back, and walked into the cafeteria not knowing ANYONE. So sad.
The other thing I miss is not having REAL bills. Like, I could spend thousands of dollars a semester on NOTHING. Eating out, going to bars, that cute dress I HAD to have for Beach Weekend. Now, I spend my money on car payment, insurance, rent, utilities, and student loans. I barely have anything left at the end of the month to enjoy myself.
