It's senior year of college, and you've always heard that senior year is the most fun. How come no one ever discusses all the credits you have to cram in order to walk in May on top of completing your internship? Here are just a few thoughts I've had during my first month of senior year:
1. I can handle this course load. I mean, I've made it this far!
Enrolled in 18 credit hours this semester? No? Me neither, I'm actually enrolled in 20 at a college with a 21 credit hour limit!
2. Did she just say "semester-long group project"?
Really? A multiple part, semester-long group project? What's worse than 1? How about 2 different projects?
3. 2 tests + 1 week= 2 all-nighters.
Whatever your caffeine of choice may be, you will stock up on it for the week! However, for a glimpse into the side effects, please see #4.
4. Did I seriously pull 2 all nighters this week?
If you've never overloaded on caffeine and missed many hours of valuable sleep, this is what you look and feel like before the week is over. 10/10 don't recommend.
5. Too hungover.....class too loud.
Thursdays are big nights for college students, but don't get carried away when you have a 9 a.m. on Fridays.
6. There's a light at the end of the tunnel.
Graduation is in May...I can do this. I can make it.
7. Could this professor get any more monotone?
Paying attention to an unexcited, unenthusiastic professor before 11 a.m. can be extremely difficult. Props to professors for putting up with us, but please try to be more excited about this stuff you claim to love.
8. Oh look, a freshman.
Okay, I was a freshman once too, so I'm not hating. However, please stop wearing your keys and student ID around your neck. We don't want to see it, you don't want to do it, just save us all.
These aren't the funniest thoughts in the world, but they're just a few so far this semester. Keep working hard, keep studying, and don't overdose on caffeine!
