I've spent three years in college. That's 1,095 days, 26,280 hours, 6 semesters, 74 credit hours, countless nights studying, a few partying, a regret or two, heartbreaks, friendships, and the absolute best and worst times of my life. That being said, the last three years have been absolutely exhausting, and I cannot WAIT to be done.
...or can I?
As I prepare to enter into my last year of college and eventually venture off into the real world, I can't help but have these thoughts.
1. How can I possibly make it through two more semesters?
2. If I have to take a Friday class, I'm dropping out.
3. Am I graduated yet?
4. What am I doing with my life?
5. My degree is useless. I'm wasting my time.
6. Maybe I can just stay in school...How bad can a doctorate really be?
7. My school is so pretty
8. I can't leave my friends
9. I'm not cut out for the real world
10. Can I still call my mom for help when I graduate?
11. Oh crap, I'll have to actually get a gym membership
12. Why is everyone engaged?!
13. How did I get so old?
14. Paying back student loans should be optional
15. I have to make the most out of this year
16. Can I make it through without buying textbooks?
17. Nope, I still don't know what I'm doing after graduation
18. I'm fine. This is fine.
19. The semester hasn't even started, but I'm still not doing the assigned reading
20. Can I just take yoga all day?
21. How much coffee have I consumed the last three years?
22. Is it too late to find a sugar daddy?
23. What about the lottery?
24. Can I get a redo? I wasn't ready.
25. Wait, adults don't wear leggings every day do they?
26. Am I going to move back home?
27. Does this mean I actually have to start cooking? ... like full meals?
28. How long is it acceptable to keep wearing college apparel?
29. I've still got time
30. Graduation is still a full year away. I don't have to panic yet...
31. ... Does anyone actually know how to do taxes?
32. C's get degrees, right?
33. Maybe my internship will just hire me when the year is up
34. Do I really need to work this summer?
35. I've got like three months. I don't have to worry about school, books, or classes yet.
36. How do the bars stay open when all the students leave?
37. Is it too late to study abroad?
38. At least I'm not a Freshman
39. Will I have to give up naps?

41. Why is everything in the real world so expensive?
42. How long can I keep coming home to steal my parents' food?
43. I love my school.

45. That settles it. I'm never leaving.
