10 Thoughts On Senior Year
HuffPost

1. The amount of homework I have after the second day is unnecessary.

The first day of any school year is a breeze with teachers just going over the ground rules, however the second day is when school becomes serious. Teachers feel the need to "jump right into things," giving pages of homework and forewarning for tests in the near future.

2. Is it OK to apply to 20 colleges?

Even starting my senior year I still have no idea where I want to go to colleges. I keep rethinking my decisions of my top schools and really trying to see if I would fit in with the student body. Narrowing down the options seems impossible and I keep adding schools to my list. 20 college applications, here I come!!!!

3. I think senioritis hit me spring of my junior year.

As the seniors start to not be in school for senior activities, the juniors take over, becoming the kings and queens of the school.

4. I am ready for college.

Hearing all the stories about college makes it seem so much better than high school. Its time to go live on your own.

5. I have no idea what I want to do with my life.

Having to chose a college is hard. Having to chose what you want to do with the rest of your life is IMPOSSIBLE.

6. I am really old.

Your 18th birthday marks your first years of adulthood. Being in a school with fourteen year olds makes you feel a lot older and more mature.

7. If I don't do this Assignment will I still graduate?

With graduation right around the corner and senioritis hitting hard, completing assignments to the best of your ability is too difficult. But seniors still need to remember that graduation can be taken away from you if you do not do at least the bare minimum.

8. I am ready to live on my own.

Having a job and driving makes your life seem much more independent. As you start to learn to cook and do laundry, your confidence skyrockets to a whole new level about living on your own.

9. ...No I can't I need my mom!!!

Yet, no one is fully ready to jump into independence. It takes years of practice and long phone calls to your mom with instructions on how to do everything.

10. It's time to graduate.

This is the time we all have been waiting for. Its time to say goodbye and start the new chapter in your life.

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.
