things i'm missing about college these days:

1. care packages. i realize i only moved 45 minutes away. and that i'm home almost every weekend doing laundry. and that i'm not 18 anymore. but my parents could still send me care packages. or y'know, you could.

2. mail. my sister used to send wicked cool postcards and danielle sent the best letters. mostly to make up for the fact that she'd never call. now she doesn't call. or write.

3. learning stuff. i was way smarter four years ago.

4. friends. my friends were all so near-by. jennie was rarely more than a few feet from my side. i miss that.

5. readily available food. be it crappy caf food or a variety of fast food - food was always right there. and no cooking.

6. sleeping in. how sweet was that.

7. vacations. summer vacation. winter vacation. it was like i never had class. what i would give for a vacation right now.

8. money. i don't know how i seemed to have more money in college when i wasn't doing shit and now that i'm actually making a semi-reasonable salary i'm always broke. but that's how it was.

9. boys. i was so much more popular in virginia.

10. thinking about the future. it was a lot easier to say four years ago that we would totally do london '07 because by then we'd all be settled in our fabulous money-making careers and doing all these fabulous things.
