7 Thoughts You Have Before Your Senior Year Of College (As Told By Harry Potter Gifs)

Right now many of us are most likely working, spending time with friends, and coming terms with the fact that the 2016/2017 school year is right around the corner. For many of us, what seemed like something that was once so far off is now soon to be a reality, senior year. In honor of the class of 2017 soon starting our last year in college, and "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" recently coming out, here are seven thoughts of a senior about to graduate college, or Hogwarts.

1. "Where did the time go?"


It seems like just yesterday we were all fresh out of high school and excited to be starting our college careers, and yet we all have a mere few weeks until we start our final year in college. Even though we have all been told several times by friends and family members that “your college years fly by.”, it doesn’t truly resonate until you realize that freshman year was three years ago, and senior year is three weeks from now.

2. "I'm not ready for this."


Change can be scary and while we all know senior year is inevitable, it can be easy to doubt whether or not we’re ready to take that step into the adult world.

3. "I am ready for that.


On the other hand, we have all worked hard to get to where we are today and as much as we may not think we're ready for what lies a head, we know deep down that our senior year is going to have some amazing moments.

4. "I have no idea what the future holds."


If college has taught us anything, it's that not everything is set in stone and things change all the time. We may not know what step lies ahead or how we will handle whatever obstacles come our way, but we do know that being uncertain is OK and as one chapter of our book ends, another begins.

5. "I feel old."


Sure, in the grand scheme of things, we are only in our early- twenties, but we all remember how when we were 18, being 22 seemed like it was just a Taylor Swift song, and now, it will soon be a reality.

6. "I hope I get the internship/job I want."


Whether this year brings applications for internships, the jobs of your dreams, or both, we all have aspirations that we have been working toward, and we all hope we have done enough to get a little bit closer to our dream career.

7. "I'm going to make this the greatest year yet."


Despite being sad about it being the beginning of an end, senior year is an opportunity. It’s an opportunity to be involved in whatever you want to be involved in, and appreciate your surroundings as well as the people you surround yourself with. With less than a year remaining before we embark into the real world, this year will be full of "last's" and I plan to make all of them count.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
