Senior year is many things, but "calm" and "tranquil" are not on the list, unfortunately. Between applying for jobs, interning, completing final thesis projects/papers (and then presenting them), and trying to pack in five trillion things on that bucket list you've been ignoring, it's one long, crazy ride for most of us. And of course, just like your senior year of high school, there's plenty of unwanted questions headed your way which you are, in NO way, inclined to answer, remember. ;)
1. Are you busy?
Sorry peeps, the last time I was available, Hannah Montana was still on TV.
2. Don’t you feel old?
Thank you for pointing out my age, that's very kind of you. Yes I actually seem to be getting quite old because I can drink legally, but I also still get carded and still eat goldfish with my grilled cheese so no -- I do not "feel" old. But, if you really wanna get technical, I've been listening to Simon and Garfunkel for years, so I've pretty much always been old.
3. Is the cafeteria food good?
Now, if it was that good, would I really have downgraded my meal plan to the smallest possible option for my last semester here? I'm in it for the rainbow cookies and the ice cream bar when there's cake batter or mint. That is all.
(P.S. it's a college cafeteria, what do you expect?)
4. Do things really fall into place the older you get?
HELL NO, but you’ll tell yourself this until the day you graduate, or so I’m convinced. (I literally called my friend today because I didn't know how to use an iron. How am I supposed to hold down a steady job and pay all my bills on time next year?!?!).
5. What are you going to miss most?
NOT THESE QUESTIONS, THAT’S WHAT.
6. What are you doing after you graduate?
I am planning on pursuing a lifelong career in sleeping and eating, xoxo talk soon, thanks for asking.
