Thoughts on School

I walk by my college everyday for various reasons, because I choose to live near school. Its odd walking past everyday and not going it to the buildings. There is a definite feeling of sadness that I'm not there. That I wont see my friend come up around the corner or walk out a door. Mostly though there is a sense of relief. That I'm not still trapped under the pressures of school. Not that the pressures of the real world aren't more terrifying and hard.   But they are more manageable. I don't currently have insane deadlines for work. My friends are now more spread out so my relationships with them are more on a personal level making them better  then when all the personality's had to be balanced 24/7 in a group dynamic. But I still miss it.
