In the entire realm of human experience, there is nothing like being in college. You have all the freedom and rights of adulthood and few (if any) of the responsibilities. You have youthful good looks and fit bodies and are in a place where you can live a life of the mind.
When I hear people say, “College wasn’t for me.” I don’t get it. To my ears, it sounds like they are saying, “Life wasn’t for me.”
Jason is absolutely correct. The only thing that holds one back is the fact that she/he doersn’t have the experience to realize it… but it doesn’t make it less true.
I was somewhat fortunate to have a screw-up for a roommate my freshman year. I had the realization early on that he was throwing away something special and it helped me appreciate the following 7 years.
