I wasnt a frat star, but college had fun moments. Tailgating, meeting girls, friends, roomates, parties, intramurals, playing video games with friends till 2 Am, pizza, sororities, road trips, clubs, classes.... Just youth in general. how will adult life compare? A boring job?

You still do most of that but now you have money to do it better

ETA: I loved college but the first 5 years out of school was probably better

With money, you can travel the world and bang hot foreign chicks.

Debt, hair loss, and chicks looking to lock you down before they get too old. Congrats, your life is over.

This. Back in the day my main concern was "how will I pay my dues, buy beer, and have money left over to pretend to date sloots?"

Now it's "which country will I visit this year to bang sloots?"

its so much easier to meet people in college. socializing in restaurants, cluns, games, skits, dorms , frats. How will I meet girls after college? make guy friends? no more class.

Work 40+ years at a job you hate. Pay all the bills for wife and kids who disrespect you except for when they need something. Drive a POS so the wife can look good in her Benz. Look forward to taking a dump so you can have some peace and quiet. Watch others less talented pass you by in your career. 20 years get behind you and you realize you missed the starting gun. Live your life in quiet desperation is the English way.

If you live in a mid-size city or bigger only a few of those things you listed actually go away quickly (sororities and intramural), everything else will slowly fade as you find new stuff to do. You'll also find that you'll be ready for some of those things to fade.

My advice: Keep moving forward in life and your career, and you wont spend too much time looking back.

Well, birthdays are merely symbolic of how another year's gone by and how little we've grown. No matter how desperate we are that someday a better self will emerge, each flicker of the candles on the cake we know it's not to be. That for the rest of our sad, wretched, pathetic lives, this is who we are to the bitter end. Inevitably, irrevocably. Happy birthday? No such thing.

First few years out will seem like an eternity, then life will freaking fly by and it's 15 years later
