I had to pay for everything on my own in college so on top of studying, going to nursing school, clinicals, etc.....I still had to work and not make that much and stress over how bills were gonna be paid.
This. My parents help me out a small amount, but I still have rent, electricity, internet/cable, gas, food, anything I need (shoes, clothes, etc.).
My major isn't super demanding, but I am the type that has to study. I graduate next month, but my class to graduate requires me to work a job where I am unpaid. I work there as much as I work my paid job, so it's like having two jobs plus school.
I don't plan to do anything crazy demanding that requires copious amounts of stress that I bring home, so just that in itself is better than getting home from work and having tons of homework.
I also am constantly broke.

I think the people that claim college was this awesome amazing time likely had parents footing the bill for them.
I had fun in college....don't get me wrong. But when I think back to that time I remember all the stress and money worries more than the random nights going out with friends.
