1. Every time someone mentions the real world you cringe.
2. You thought senioritis was real in high school, but now you have reached a whole new level. No bra, crumpled homework assignment, wine in your coffee mug and ready to tackle senior capstone.
3. Actually panicking when you realize you have no idea where you will be in less than 8 months from now. “I need a Xanex.”
4. You would rather just pretend that graduation is a myth and it isn’t just right around the corner.
5. You are feeling sentimental attachments to some of the most obscure things. “Aw, I once puked in that person's yard. Man, I’m really going to miss that yard.”
6. Overhearing a freshman say that they hate college and that they want to transfer and your response is to get irrationally angry. “YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND, I would KILL to be a freshman again. Appreciate it while you still can.”
7. You want to do all the things: lunch with
Samantha, dinner with Charlotte and drinks after with Miranda. Oh and don't forget to squeeze in the 10-page paper you keep putting off.
8. Feeling nostalgic about how you used to go to frat parties, then going to said frat party and realizing how old you actually are. *looks around* *sees half-naked children (read: freshmen) everywhere* *calls cab to leave*
9. Your reaction to getting an A on a test is that of disbelief.
10. When your younger friends ask you to go out on a school night you nearly always have to say no due to your outrageous amount of homework.
11. But when you do go out it turns into a night like this:
...and this...
...and finally:
12. After a night out you feel a little under the weather. And by "a little" I mean:
13. Using “I’m a senior” as an excuse for EVERYTHING. I once cut a freshman in line for Chick-fil-a because they took too long to figure out which items made up a combo and still feel no shame.
14. You spend as much time with your closest friends while you still can. Crying real tears at the thought that they could live 500 miles away in less than 8 months.
You may be ready to leave undergrad life behind or you may not, either way you will make it through this with a diploma and a ton of precious memories so make them count.
