The feeling of complete and utter euphoria brought on by graduating from college. Often elicits bouts of binge drinking, screaming, fist-pumping and general insanity.
When I got out of my last final exam as a college student, I felt the weight of the world lifted off my shoulders. It was as if I had been finally set free from a lifetime of servitude. I started sprinting through campus just for the hell of it. When I got home I ate a whole tub of ice cream, downed three bottles of whiskey, and then slept for three straight days. I didn't realize it at the time, but apparently I had contracted an acute case of graduation jollies.
