10 Things Every High School Senior Is Feeling Right Now
fox.com

It's bad enough going back to school after winter break but it's even worse for high school seniors. I thought the senioritis was bad last semester, but I've only been to school for two days so far and even that has been too much. As of the moment I wrote this I have exactly 11,160,521 seconds until graduation. It amazing how badly we want high school to end yet I'm sure we're all going to miss it- even just a little- once it's over (who am I kidding, no we won't). While you're struggling to get through your final semester, I hop you enjoy these New Girl themed phases.

1. New Years Day comes along...

This is our year. We are finally graduating, nothing can stop us now!

2. Then you realize school is tomorrow

Why is winter break only two and a half weeks long? Why does it have to go by so fast?

3. And your sleep schedule is way out of wack

It consists if you going to bed at three in the morning and waking up at noon. Sometimes you would even sleep 10 plus hours per day. Life was so simple without homework and with more Netflix, why must it end?

4. But then you remember there is only 133 days until graduation


A mini dance party is very necessary for this realization because, after all, you've been through 12 years of this already.

5. And senioritis hits you hard

To the point where even the idea of school upsets you. You're way to mature for this place. Basically, you rule the school and there isn't one thing that could make you do something you don't want to.

6. The "what are you doing with your life" question comes up a lot

They ask what you plan on majoring in in college, and-after thinking about it for over a year now- you still have no idea.

7. What college you are going to?

There are way to many colleges in the world, still a lot in the country, and a ridiculous amount in your state alone. The emails and mail from various colleges are ruining your life. At this point you've narrowed down your list to a possible 15-20 and are slowly eliminating them based on cost. You'll get back to that answer by May 1st.

8. Are you staying in state?

If I did want to stay in state, you constantly asking me that question makes me want to less and less. If I didn't want to stay in state that question just gets really annoying.

9. Eventually you become so overwhelmed with the questions that eventually you block everyone out and inevitably look like this...

Enough said.

10. The last day of school will probably start off like this

Second semester is going to go by in a flash so while laughing and agreeing with many of these phases, take time to enjoy your final moments in high school. Be spontaneous and crazy, be confident and have no regrets, you'll never be as young as you are right now again. I wish you the best of luck class of 2017.

To The Cheerful Person On Their Rainy Days, You Are Valid

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.
