College teaches you the “work hard play hard”. Yes people party hard in college.
I went to Univ. of California Santa Barbara, one of the top party schools in the nation... ... ... and one of the best academically achieving public colleges in the nation.
I had/am having a much more fun time in College; actually getting to study exactly what you want to do feels great, plus most people in your classes have similar interests/personalities I've noticed.
Maybe it's just my course though, as I am studying Game Development so I guess it's to be expected that it's a bit more fun.
Wow, really? Which college did you go to? I went to Penn State, and it was definitely a good school, but I can't really say that I had a great experience.
I never had fun. lol I had fun in middle school. I had lots of friends 100% IQ of a genius. teach me chess, anime, and how to read a long book. I was also in track and cross-country... My week was Early cross-country practice Class PE Art After school Cross-country practice Sometimes after after school Art Art competitions School Dance Walking to my friends house Sitting with my best guy friend who was in loved with a girl name NINA ahaha Stealing glance at the cutest guy in the world who never liked me... And talking in hallway... At home HW... GAMEBOY And bedtime. Wake-up on the weekends and go to help my mom clean in a giant dealership... late that night @1am I would go to eat at ihop with my ma and my brother... then Sunday... me, ma, my brother would go to harry hines this place in teaxas and look at the marketplace... and eat tacos... and laugh and listen to music... N I would love looking at my mom beatiful face... I had my own room... I was boy crazy... I miss those days in texas when I thought I could be anything and anyone and laugh forever... after high school it left me empty and college I never could connect with anyone. After college I still can't connect with anyone but I got G@G
I don't know yet still in high school and it is rlly exhausting everyday even tho I literally just do color guard for extracurriculars. Maybe the class rigor is extreme in my school and the SATS are stressing me out. The only reason I wish to get out of hs is bc of the pressure to maintain good grades in order to get in a reputable college, but its prob worse in college
I have a little friend group but I don't know if it’s gonna last bc we’re gonna go our separate ways in college
I can’t wait to go to college, but at the same time scared to face adulthood :(
College, at least for those attending to learn something. Is hardly one big party. It takes a lot of hard work and effort in order to maintain solid grades. That being said it’s defenitley a lot more fun than highschool, at least it is for me. Then again my highschool experience was pretty shit, so I might be biased.
Well, if your in it for the party’s then look at it this way. Minimal supervision + lots of people both male and female around the same age + people with access to alcohol. That should give you an idea about the average college campus.
In high school I was just "there." I attended class, made good grades as I was expected to, and graduated- don't miss it at all.
College was a little better: I did get to be a little rebellious and independent and see the world, make new friends, experience relationships, and all that fun stuff... I had the "college experience" so to speak. But you also had to learn how to be an adult, be responsible, stay out of trouble, attend classes and be accountable for the work, all while trying to juggle your studies so you could graduate and get a good job.
Yeah no, I'm glad both are done! Give me the real world anyday, lol
Definitely college! I was a nerd in high school, top of my class and didn't have any friends. So, I never went out for coffee and had fun. On the other hand, in college I almost failed it and I was on the bottom. I still haven't graduated but I am trying. In general in college I made some friends, had fun going out and for drinks and I had some sex too and a relationship. I guess i became a rebel on college and did what I haven't done all these years in high school
Yes, it's more fun. Sometimes I go to parties with friends, maybe in SF or maybe they drive me to UCSB, sometimes I went months without talking to anyone trying to study differential geometry. Depends on which school you go to, of course, they could range from vanilla refugee camp to living in a monastery (featuring substance abuse, sex, parties and sleep deprivation). You know how monks are better at martial arts than the peasants? that's how I felt when I finally descended from my ivory tower and talked to `the people`. Regardless of how talented you are, you need a professional network ( which might consist of people who used to party with you but are now some big shots at some big company, or simply people who witnessed your capability and can vouch for you - I think it's called the old boy network).
I went to a high school that was super strict, had no real sports to speak of, and was intensely academic so 100%, the more fun award goes to college. I lucked into not having a roommate my freshman year and one of the biggest dorm rooms, and several of my HS friends went to college with me, so it was like college knew they owed me one. LOL!
I had more fun in college, but if you want to graduate it is not just one big party. Yes, there were plenty of parties, but there's also hard work studying if you want to get a degree.
It will also depend a lot on which college you attend. Some are more party schools than others but even at serious well respected colleges there are still plenty of parties.
I had zero fun in high school. Same for college. as I didn't attend college until I was out of the military. As a college freshman, I was three years older than everyone. I was there for the education, not to party or make friends.
College, but only slightly more. I was a nerd. I think I still am to an extent, not to mention that large crowds and loud noise stress me out, so not much partying for me. Not to mention, I dont drink alcohol, so there's that too.
To be honest I’m in college now and I’m not attending any parties or anything but it’s still not boring. But high school was shit that’s all I gotta say
High school was absolute trash. College I actually enjoy. I honestly think my college classes are easier than high school because I enjoy all my classes which is nice
