To The High School Seniors About To Put On College Colors For The First Time

We are one week away from college decision day and this might just be one of the most exciting yet nerve-wracking days of your high school senior year. You have to decide where you will be spending the next 2-4 years.

This is the day you wear your new school colors to your old school and accept your college admission.

This is the day you take pride in all the work you've done and see how it's paid off.

Now, this is not decision day for every college, but if it is for your top picks, you have an important decision to make. It can be difficult to choose a college and even more to decide on a major. People expect you to have things figured out by this date, and it can be overwhelming. Just know, it's OK to wear two shirts to school that day. I graduated with a guy that wore two different outfits for two different schools and picked the school based on the outfit. I wouldn't recommend that, but hey, if it works it works.

You aren't perfect, no one is. Just because people make it seem like this will define your life, it will not. You define your life. If you pick a college and decide to transfer later on, that is OK! Just don't give up on the things you want to do. Believe in yourself and your decision and make the best of it. Just remember that this decision is yours, you decide your future.

So take your time. Pick your shirt. Take pride in it.

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
