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?
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.
