A Letter To Those Struggling With Senioritis
Frontline

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.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. 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.
