I wish I hadn't worked 2 jobs while getting my CS degree. I have lots of acquaintences and friends in my mid-30s, but no friends from college or earlier. I have a lot of memories that I can't really share with anybody who was also there, and it's only sort of showing up now that I don't have any really deep friendships, and it mostly started from me doing nothing but work or study during the time when I should have been growing socially.

+1 to that. I missed half of my college because I was grinding to make enough money to live without very supportive parents. I figured something out for my last 2-3 years so it wasn't as bad as your case, but I envy the kids who actually got to live in the dorms and party and stuff.
