Sometimes I miss college

I’m not the type of person to dwell on the past and I’m very happy with where I am in life… But sometimes I do miss college.

I miss:

• Being able to nap between classes
• Walking across campus on a beautiful day

  Nice days made walking to class fun

• The feeling accompanied by an email about class being canceled
• Being the nicest dressed person in class (while wearing jeans and a t-shirt)
• Having random holidays off
• Having another lady in the same apartment to help with tough wardrobe decisions

I miss a few more things, but when I get too nostalgic, I remind myself what I don’t miss about college.

I don’t miss:

• Roommates and neighbors who only know how to slam doors
• The giant spiders that liked our apartment senior year
• Working evenings and early mornings on weekends
• Tiny refrigerators

My employer gave us all turkeys one year

• Underclassmen stalkers in the library
• Walking across campus in rain or two feet of snow

There are sidewalks under that snow

• Working my butt off and paying a fortune to do so
• Planning a wedding, interning and studying at the same time time

Graduation was a good day.

We worked hard for those cords!
