Graduation is right around the corner, and all of the college seniors are feeling the pressure.

5 Signs You Are Graduating In May

1) People are constantly asking you what your plans are after graduation.

Post college plans are a constant topic of discussion in the final months of your college career. Everyone wants to know what your big plans for after graduation, and half the time you just want to give them an honest "I don't know". You may have some plans in the works, but they always seem to be changing.

2) You spend all your free time scrolling through job postings, applying for said jobs, and updating your resume

Any free time you have, you find yourself looking for jobs. It almost becomes more entertaining that scrolling through social media. But you also find yourself constantly updating your resume and applying for all of these jobs, which is just as stressful as it sounds.

3) You can't wait to be done with school, but also never want it to end

As excited as you are to be done, you also can't believe your college years are almost over. You are super excited for no more homework, but you will also be leaving behind some great friends and even better memories.

4) Seeing other people figuring out their lives stresses you out.

As happy as you are for your friends figuring out what their next step is, it is also extremely stressful. You are just as eager to find your path, and it can diffiult watching everyone else do it while you are fumbling along.

5) You are not entirely sure you are ready for the real world

So long are the days of rolling out of bed and heading to class in sweats. College is a great deal of work, but can also be a very relaxed atmoshpher. So after graduation rolls around, most college students will have to adjust to the much different way of living. We will figure it out eventually, but that doesn't mean we will be ready for it when it happens.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.
