Thoughts I Have During My Last Semester Of College

I'm graduating early (in December, which is a whole 6 months before everyone else), so this semester is my last semester of college (like ever). Let me tell you: when you are less than two months away from being done with college, the senioritis gets real. So. Real. I thought I was over school before, but I have reached a new level of over it. Here are just a few of the millions of thoughts that run through my head on a daily basis during my last two months of college:

1. How many days of classes are left?

2. I can do this. I've done this for 4 years. I can do two more months.

3. I can't do this. These are the longest two months of my life.

4. Do I really need to study for this test?

5. Do I really need to take this class to graduate?

6. I am never going to use anything I learn in this class in my career.

7. What grade do I need on this paper to pass this class?


8. Why did I agree to also work part-time and go to school full time?

9. Is it okay to skip the same class three times in two weeks?

10. This is such a waste of my time.

11. Could everyone stop asking me what I'm doing with my life when I graduate.

12. Wow. I have no idea what I'm doing with my life when I graduate.

13. No. I don't have a job set up after I graduate.

14. If I leave my headphones in, will that keep people from talking to me?

15. The answer to #14 is no.

16. Read chapters 6, 7, and 8 for homework? Sweet. No homework.

17. How much sleep do I need to function tomorrow?

18. I can just do this assignment in the morning before class.

19. I can totally get all 6 of these assignments due tomorrow done in one hour.

20. Why do professors keeping giving me homework? Don't you know I'm done in less than two months?

21. Still no job.

22. Do you think I can get paid to eat food and watch Netflix when I graduate?

23. How many days until school is over?

24. Can I go back to kindergarten?

25. I'm so broke.

26. I wanna cry.

27. I have so much work to do.

28. NO. I STILL DON'T HAVE A JOB.

29. Is it over yet?

30. Only 20 days left.

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
