We all know that time of year, it's that time of year when all your tests (for all your classes) are on the same day. When you first start out in college it seems easy-- you have everything down to a T and if push comes to shove, you have four more years to make it up. Let me tell you that Senioritis is a real thing, and mental breakdowns your senior year is also a real thing. Here are the 10 things, really NORMAL things to do when you are stressed out and have senioritis:
1. Cry about it.
Seriously, let it out. Those are your emotions and right now is a reasonable time to let that stress come out.
2. Run it out.
"They" (whoever they are) say that working out is a great way to release endorphins and endorphins make people high on happiness.
3. Sit down and study
Now that you are tired from working out and crying, try to study a bit and get on track.
4. Just kidding, eat empty calories
Just like exercise, food is also a comfort. But if you are trying to be healthy, go towards the better options.
5. Cry some more
Let it out, its okay!
6. Find that nice adult beverage (if you're of age) and take a sip... or two.
NO MORE THAN TWO SIPS!!!
7. Watch Netflix
Take a break from all this nonsense and watch mind numbing shows.8. Study some more
Seriously, get cracking on those books.
9. Get coffee.
AGAIN, just like working out, caffeine also releases endorphins.
10. Relax... everything will be okay!
YOU TOTALLY HAVE THIS!! Just stay motivated to finish in the long run.
The best thing to do when you are fearful of the future is to sit down and relax. Yes, you had the entire first part of the semester to study but you're not perfect! It is OK to be scared but it is not OK to give up. Keep on going and you will graduate and everything will be great. Right now you are doing something that most people have not done! You are so close to getting that expensive piece of paper that holds your future! Do not give up and realize it is okay to break down; please, just do not give up!!
Sincerely,
A girl who is also suffering from senioritis.
