Life As A Second Semester College Senior

A balance of partying and cover letters.

Second semester can either be really fun, or really stressful. A time for endless parties, but also endless tears, caused by having to apply to jobs, and to start doing adult things all on your own.

1. You find yourself wanting to do everything, but know that deep down you're still too lazy to really care.

On the one hand you're like:

But on the other:

#Balance.

2. Graduation was once a wonderful beacon of hope you used to dream about. Now, it's essentially been marked as Doomsday.

Just the thought of it makes you want to cover your ears, duck for cover, and curl up in a ball.

3. You laugh at all the freshmen who try really hard at everything.

Look at all those freshmen running around doing everything and looking nice. Ahh, so young. So naive.

4. Trying to write a good cover letter and resume is more stressful than writing an academic paper.

5. Senioritis has hit an all time high.

6.You know at least 8 people that are engaged.

Which makes you think how you don't have your life together.

7. Hearing about how everyone else is getting job interviews and offers is making you more stressed out/ angry/ emotional.

"Oh you just interviewed with J.P. Morgan? That's so great!" *sheds one lonely tear*

8. You're really tired of being asked what your plans are after graduation.

"Well Karen, like I said back at Christmas, I have no idea, so quit asking me."

9.You may enjoy the perks of being a senior, but you're really jealous of freshmen because they've still got time to live.

10. You' start to buy more business casual outfits.

Unfortunately, it comes with a high price.

11. Hookups < Dating.

You'd much rather find a special someone than just fool around and hate yourself for it later.

12. You used to joke about having no money, but now having no money is a real crisis.

13. You're scared but excited at the same time.

You're at least a little excited to see what the future holds for you.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
