YES I miss my college life a LOT. I miss just hanging out with my friends and being carefree...now that we all have jobs, we barely get to hang out with each other. And there's actually more responsibilities now than back then when we were still students. Ah..I miss my college life.

you've mentioned that we have more responsibilities.that's true.we have to grow,and growth comes with pains.we have no other choice.being innocent all the time is possible.

Yes, most of the time I do feel that. I wasn't able to stay for too long in my jobs before. I realized I am not yet over with my college days. I miss my classmates, the school ambiance, the quiet talks on the library, the foods at the canteen, my professors, and the discipline officer who always run after me because of my violations. lol =) How I miss those days. College days is truly fun.

i think the reason that people always miss college time is that they are pure and simple during that time.they have so many dreams about their life and they believe that these dreams will all come true if they make efforts.but the reality is not what they have expected.

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with you here! Partially because I currently AM a student and I find it to be the most stressful thing in the world. The worst part is coming up with financial aid and loans to make up for tuition, housing, and meal plans..And the other half: is that I have to WORK thirty hours a week to stay financially afloat AND I somehow need to fit studying and assignments into my schedule. I feel like I have a million different priorities, and I can't wait untiL I graduate and focus on ONE job rather than two-part time jobs and full-time schooling. So I can't say I "miss" it now. I can easily say I miss high school, though, because things were so much more simple then - no tuition, no majors/minors, no independence, no bills, etc. Now it's complicated. But hey, ask again in 10 years and we'll see what I'm saying then.

I too miss my student life. I miss my allowances from my parents and the time me and my friends spend together. Now that I am working, I have to earn for myself and have lesser time with friends.

I left the school half year ago, I really miss the life when I was a student. When I was student in school, I can arrange my time by myself. I can go shopping at any time I want. I can take the part-time job to make some money than spent the money on whatever I want. I have enought time for me to read the book I am interested, I can spent my time on my study and get very good result to get the scholarship. What's more important, I have so many classmate and good friend. Most of time ,I can easy meer them. Nowadays, I have to go to work at the same time in the morining, then, go back after the work. Time is always not so enough. It seems that the only thing I do a day is work or job. I can not adapt to this kind of life at the beginning. But recently, I think more about life, about money, and obligation. I think I know more about life, I will have a better life I believe!

hello, I graduate from the university at 2008 too, but I began to work one year before my graduation, so that means I have been working full time in the company for more than 2 years, and that makes me feel that my college life have been gone for very long time. i really miss those days, when we have nothing to do but read books, have class and have fun! I miss my roommates and classmates, and the romatic college environment.

yes ofcourse i miss a lot.Even these days all our classmates would try to meet in our college ground and create a mess around for hours refreshing all those funny incidents which took place during our college days.we try to hang out and spend time together.nd ppl who r farther from their frnds are left with only golden memories of those days.
