I am a fresh grad., and looking for work now. But sometimes I do reminisce things like being a student. I miss those days, studying, waking up early and getting ready for school. What else do you miss? Share it.

As for me I miss my elementary years in school. We study and also have time to play outside the school. I miss the Christmas parties and the doing of projects and having lots of books to read.

Elementary days with a lot of activities as well as Christmas parties. Exchange gifts and games. No such pressure, hard projects or whatsoever just enjoying and learning.

When we were students we wish that we are not studying instead working. But now that I graduated I feel like being a student again. Having fun with friends, learning and socializing with others. It was so much fun being a student.

I liked the fact that we had a routine, and that the weekends were always free to do whatever we wanted to, whereas now I often have to work through the weekends and have random days off which means that I can't really make plans in advance or anything like that. I also miss seeing my friends every day, and I think that this is something that you take for granted while you're in education. I have just finished University and haven't had the chance to meet up with my friends for eight weeks because we're all so busy now with our new jobs and our families. But you just have to try harder, and realise that if you don't meet up for a couple of weeks this just means that you're going to have a lot more to talk about when you do eventually make it out with them.

Yes that's true. Even just a week of not seeing each other a day is not enough to share stories. We really have to make some time to keep in touch with our friends which we cannot do because of a busy schedule. Unlike when we are students all the time is about spending it with friends. It is really what we really miss when we are students. The company of your friends.

I miss having a standard community I see for years (in my country, there are classes made of 20-30 people, who stay and learn together in classes for years... in the last two years, there is some mingling with other classes, when people choose their classes in which they wanna learn more lessons per week). I miss community projects, community "game shows". Also that I could go to some events free if I was underage.

Missin' the community projects, meeting new people, learning new things. Being involved in different community services and able to go somewhere and able to explore more new things. That is really a thing to miss.

It is a little hassle going back to school. Waking up early, commuting(more hassle if rainy days), staying up late to do projects. But it was fun though because when you are near graduation it is so much exciting and a little bit sad because you really going to miss your friends. The laugh, stories, jokes and trips with them... I so miss my friends now.
Goodluck to us in finding job, MyLot really take some time for us not to be bored.
Goodluck with your med school.

Well, i think i missed out quite a lot of things as a student because for most of my education, i am home schooled. I have been to schools thats why i know what I've missed out. I probably missed out a lot of boring orientations ( lol..which i don't mind), i missed out sports day ( which i seriously care about!), I missed out pulling pranks on teachers, i missed out prom and all those fancy student parties and I probably missed out a lot of other things. :( I guess thats the price i pay for being home schooled.

The school activities, the prom, partying with friends, sportsfest, which you can join different games, activities and sports you are in to. The break time of studying and just getting fun with friends and also the teachers.

Most of all I miss my friend from the time when I was a student. We were 3 students who always studied together and did our projects together. Today I am still in the touch with one of them, but I haven't talked to the other one for several years. I tried to find her an Facebook, but so far I haven't managed to find her and I miss talking to her. In the beginning we only studied together, but we later on we started spending our free time together as well. I also miss going to school and learning new things all the time. I don't miss the exams 
but I liked the idea of learning new things.

Spending time with friends is what I also missed! Because when you already have work your free time will be limited unlike when you were a student. If you have projects you were able to do it with your friends but not only doing it but then also having fun with your friends. I always do want to keep in touch with my friends, they are fun to be with. I also miss our professors,teachers that are really nice and considerate.

Well there are lots of things that i really misses as a student. One of them was strolling with friends after classes or having group studies that lead to picnic tht full of laughters and enjoyment. Student's life is one of the memorable and happy moment and chapter in our life.

What we really miss as a student is the bond with our friends. The group projects that we want it to group by friends for us to be confident with our group mates and as well as to be able to have fun and go out with them. Student's life is so memorable with such learning, new things, teachers and also the fun with your friends.

Well I was not much of a student. I actally did not like anything about school and studying. Waking up early was like pulling teeth. Studying? Are you kidding me? Naw... I kind of wish I could go back and change afew things now. I would be alot better of a student now then what I was 10 years ago.

When we are studying we feel like it is more fun working but then when we are working we tell ourselves I miss being a student again. Sometimes it is not always studying that we miss. For me I miss being at school having fun with my friends. Being serious with study is a lot of stress but enjoying with friends and as well as focusing with your study I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
