I didn't really have a curfew in high school so maybe that's the difference. Of course I didn't do much partying or "bad" things either so that's probably why there wasn't a curfew.cview wrote:And in college you hang out with your friends 24 hours a day.I Wear Pants wrote: Anyone that says college is a liar.

I had a blast in HS and I'm having a blast in college. High school mostly because of sports, there was nothing better than playing them with the guys that have been my best friends since I was two feet tall.
College mostly because of the freedom. No curfew, no parents, everyone can just do whatever the hell they want all the time. The most fun I currently have is a mix of both; when a) I go home and we get crazy because we're all of age and we're not 17 year olds that have curfew b) HS friends come visit here and it's a mix of them and all my college buddies
I'd say separately college is more fun but my college friends and I have discussed it before...if we could transplant our respective "homes" and the HS friends from there all here, we'd do it in a heartbeat and that would be the absolute best.
When I first read the question this was my immediate reaction, why would anyone NOT say college over HS? But to the point above if you stay at home and commute to the local CC or university I can see how the college experience is lacking, and really it isn't an experience but rather a means to an end. The majority of my HS class that attended college commuted, including an older brother so I could see how they would say HS. My brother commuted to Marshall and was constantly complaining how tough it was to meet people and find dates. Well, if all you do is drive in to class, leave afterwards and study at home I can see how it would be tough. The overwhelming number memories I have from college have nothing to do with classes but the relationships made in living in a collegiate residential atmosphere.HitsRus wrote: If you went away to college and lived on campus >>>>>than HS which was a lot of drama and petty bullshit and rules. There should n't even be a comparison. If you actually think that HS is/was better than college, I feel sorry for you. Campus life should be 100 times better than living at home with your parents and picayune rules/ requirements of HS.
This is the case with most of life. The memorable qualities are the relationships that result.Manhattan Buckeye wrote: .... The overwhelming number memories I have from college have nothing to do with classes but the relationships made in living in a collegiate residential atmosphere.

In retrospect, kindergarden was the best time of my life. When I was in kindergarden they still only did half days. I was in the morning class. So let me break down how my days went. My mom woke me up, made me breakfast. I took a bath. Then watched cartoons until it was time to go. Once at school, I played with the blocks with my friends. Had story time, followed by coloring and then it was snack time. Then at noon, my mom picked me up, made me lunch. Then it was pretty much watch TV and play with my toys until bed time. I got up the next morning and did it all over again.
So really kindergarden was the best time of my life. No responsibilities, no job (other than picking up my toys) no bills to pay, no worries.
