Seniors, It's Our Last Month, Let's Make It Count

Senior year has always been a roller coaster of emotions for every 18-year old. Sure, it may be a different experience for everyone, but there is one thing we all know, which is that we are all ready to graduate and move on with our lives. There have been so many memories made over the last four years, let's make these last ones our best ones.

Think about all of the amazing memories we are about to make, from prom to graduation, there are so many things to look forward to for the rest of our high school careers, we don't want it to go by fast. I know we all want to go on Senior week but let's take everything one step at a time, starting with enjoying our prom. Next, focus on graduation, senior week and then finally, our favorite part: college!

Many of us lack motivation for the end of the year. It is a lot to process and we all are just wanting to get out of the cement building we spend 7 hours in 5 days a week. Memories we have made in these buildings are important though, they have shaped us to be who we are today, we were in high school during the most important time of our lives, it shaped us to be who we are today, the people we have met, the teachers we had, all of these factors have made us and shaped us into who we will be in college and the people we may attract. None of us want high school to follow us, we want to start anew and make new friends, but remember that the people who shaped you in high school will show you the type of people you may be friends with in college.

Overall, never forget all the memories we have made in high school, whether they are good or bad, they have taught us valuable lessons and will allow us to prosper and learn from our mistakes. Now, let's make this last month our best month! We are in the homestretch of one of the most important years of our lives!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads.
