9 Things Every Incoming Senior In College Goes Through
123rf

Entering your senior year of college is something else, something of another animal. I thought that being a senior in high school was nerve wracking and exciting, but college? I can't even compare the two.

Here are things every college senior thinks while entering their senior year!

1. The heartbreak you endure with your split from your last summer break ever.

A bittersweet break up between you and your summer vacation; up next? The rest of your life.

2. Anxious about the hustle and bustle of your LAST college move-in day ever.

Running around, surrounded by gross sweaty people, all nervous and emotional about moving in. Let the games begin.

3. Seeing your friends again!

Being separated since May was very sad, stressful and in some cases... MUCH NEEDED (still love you though).

4. Buying books.

And as quickly as your money came, it will be gone. Just as if you are throwing it out the window.

5. Preparing your stomach for the adjustment of Student Center food.

Let the stomach pains and awkward tummy noises begin!

6. Also preparing for the LEGAL fun you will all have now that your whole friend group is 21.

Now to fight over who is the DD, since the designated driver is now of legal age...

7. Make your "New (School) Year's Resolution"

I will study 3 hours a day, I will go to the gym five days a week, I will stick to my diet, I will balance my work, social and romantic life; ugh...

8. Setting up your dorm room for the last time...

9. When you begin to realize how much you're going to miss school...

This is only the beginning of the end. I'm not crying, you're crying!

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
