13 Things Seniors are Tired of Hearing

Being a second-semester senior is tough, you’re busy searching for a job and attempting to become a grown up while also trying to enjoy every moment you have left at college. Hearing nagging questions and sad realizations repeatedly doesn’t exactly help the fact that you are just trying to survive your last semester of school and also get into the real world. Next time you talk to a second-semester college senior consider refraining from saying any of these phrases.


1. Are you graduating on time?

I sure hope so!

2. What are you getting a degree in?

Sleep and Netflix because that’s all I do every day. Totally kidding, something that is very broad because I still don’t know what I’m doing with my life but can be applied to anything.

3. And what exactly can you do with that?

I’m still trying to figure that out too, I’ll get back to you on that one.


4. Have you applied anywhere?

Oh don’t worry I have.


5. And have you heard back from any companies?

Oh don’t worry I haven’t.


6. Are you going to move home?

*Sighs* Don’t wanna talk about it.


7. Or are you going to stay in your college town?

I WISH.


8. Are you sure you don’t want to go to grad school?

I’m not really sure, thanks for asking!


9. When are you getting married?

I’m just trying to graduate let’s not get ahead ourselves here.


10. Have you started saving for retirement?

Retirement? I’m still in college, I don’t even have enough money saved for the rest of my meals.


11. “You’re going to miss college”

I haven’t even left yet and I already do.


12. “Time to start acting like an adult”

But I’m trying to enjoy the few non-adult months I have left, I DON'T WANNA!!


13. “The real world sucks”

Sounds like it!

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
