10 GIFs That Every Second Semester Senior Will Relate To

To all my fellow high school seniors: congratulations! College apps are over, and we can finally just sit back, relax, and watch graduation day roll around. Here are 10 GIFs that encapsulate what we're all feeling.

1. When you realize you're all done with college apps

College apps are undoubtedly the bane of every senior experience. Combine the stress of writing a really good application with extracurriculars, school work, family, and social life, and you have a recipe for a plethora of sleepless lights. Luckily, it's all over now.

2. But then you remember scholarships are a thing

Sadly, it's not quite over yet. Scholarships are really the only thing protecting us against the terrifying creature that is student debt. I knew it was too good to be true.

3. When your teacher assigns homework

You fool! Who do you think I am--a student who cares? Nothing matters anymore...

4. But then you remember you're taking AP classes

Damn you, CollegeBoard. Looks like there's no time for relaxation just yet. You'll still have to crack down and do your work if you want to do well on the AP Exam.

5. When your friends in lower grades complain about their coursework

Sucks to suck, am I right? It's always enjoyable to poke fun at your friends who still have a year (or a few) left to go. Go ahead, flaunt your status. Tell the world how it feels to taste sweet, sweet freedom.

6. Waiting for college decisions

This is probably the hardest part of being a senior. I. Just. Want. To. Know. The apprehension is KILLING me!

7. Finally getting an acceptance

Well, it looks like I'm actually going to college. Thank God. Now I just have to figure out how to pay for it...

8. When you have to think about the future

How am I going to feed myself? How will I get clean clothes? How will I get a real career? I'm going to be an adult soon. Like, a real adult! This can't be happening. Cue panic attack.

9. Realizing that it's almost over

No more terrible teachers. No more hanging around those unbearable classmates of yours. When high school ends, you can go out and explore the world. Discover who you are. Experience new things. Meet new people.

10. But also, realizing that it's almost over

Soon you'll be saying goodbye to the school you called home for four years. You'll miss that one teacher who you have a great connection with. You'll miss that one class you're taking that you absolutely love. You'll miss your friends. You'll miss that club, that sports team, that organization you were a part of. You'll miss the football games, the little quirks and traditions, and the pride that makes your school so special.

So, there you have it. Here's to goodbyes. And here's to new beginnings--for all of us.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
