Anyone Else Miss Recruiting SZN?

Idk if it's just me, but i kinda miss sleeping at 5am, waking up at 12pm, sending networking emails, hopping on a few calls, then studying and going to sleep. Went to like 3 classes in total that semester and somehow finessed my way out of them. Kinda miss the dopamine I got from getting email replies and finishing a good call. Might just be me but lowkey life is kinda dull after this

"If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." - Bruce Lee
 

Honestly I feel you. There was this rush that everything on the line was at stake, and it was a rollercoaster of emotions that ultimately ended in the prize. I think we can look fondly on it since we came out on the other end, but if we sunk then we'd have a VERY different perception on it lol

Had a similar lifestyle to you during those 2 months, and while it was thrilling to an extent, I don't wanna do that shit ever again lmfao.
