re: I'm about to take my last final at LSU as an undergrad

College was definitely the best 4 years of my life, although the MBA years are up there too. They have two things in common that are so hard to match in the "real world".

One, you are surrounded by many people who are basically your age, so it's easy to meet people and make new friends. On top of that, once you have friends, everyone lives 2-3 miles away at most. In college, they often live 20-30 feet away so you don't even have to bother making plans.

Two, there is so much free time. Now in terms of finals, job interview season, term papers, etc you will have times where you can't go out for a week or so and those weeks are actually more stressful than a week in the working world. But the rest of the time, you're in class maybe 12-15 hours a week, you spend another 10 hours studying, if that, and the rest of the time, you're free.

Give me a 25 hour work week any day , and I'll gladly exchange it for a 80 hour work week once every three months

Chin up. You'll be surprised how easy it is to continue making friends as you transition to adult. Depending on your career or where you're moving you'll be meeting 10's - 100's of others just like you. Find a local alumni chapter, live in an apartment that skews young and don't be afraid to strike up conversations with people that work for your company but in different groups. Get ready to enjoy the years that are more fun than college (really).
