This was when I made my best friends, took drugs, saw great bands and had loads of sex!!!!

So you got to enjoy all the classic youthful indiscretions while you were still young? That's a
good thing!

Just wait a few more years. All your classmates will be going middle-aged crazy, divorcing their spouses, quitting their high-powered jobs, and wondering "Is that all there is?". They will be trying to recapture the youth they wasted by being so serious and goal-oriented, and you'll have already sown your wild oats and will therefore have a much better handle on life.

On the plus side, none of them seem to have had an exciting youth (they all went to uni and then got married after graduation
