Thoughts Of A Second Semester Senior
Stacie Moss

Happy, sad, stressed, scared. There is a multitude of emotions and thoughts that come into play when you are about to graduate college and hopefully move on to bigger and better things. The real world can be daunting and scary, however, this is also a great time to spend the last few months you have with your closest friends. Here is a list of every thought that goes through a graduating senior's mind during a typical day second semester:

1. Do I really have to go to class today?

2. It's HOW COLD!?

3. Nope, not going

4. I mean my transcripts have already been sent so I should be fine right?

5. OMG what if I fail and don't graduate?! My entire family already bought plane tickets to come!

6. That would be the worst!

7. If I don't graduate on time can I still start grad school on time?

8. The answer is definitely no

9. Okay going to class

10. I seriously need to get rid of all my sorority t-shirts

11. My new look is now adult athlesuire

12. That's what real adults wear right?

13. Alright one last XL shirt and leggings because I'm running late and it's FREEZING outside

14. I'm for sure driving to class

15. Way too cold to walk

16. Too late for the bus

17. Do you have to pay all of your parking tickets before you graduate?

18. OMG you CAN"T even graduate without paying them

19. Tomorrow I'll stop driving to class

20. Look at all the little freshman

21. Aww I'm gonna miss walking on campus

22. I might even miss these lectures

23. No computers!? Just kidding when is graduation????

24. You already have an apartment for next year?!?!?!

25. Same... I know exactly what I'm doing after May...

26. I really need to finish my grad school apps tonight

27. Yay everyone is going out tonight!

28. I can't go

29. But I mean it is my senior year

30. Maybe just one drink

31. Yeah I deserve this I'm graduating

32. This might be some of my last memories with these girls

33. Am I really crying right now???

34. I'M FINE

35. I have all semester to go out

36. WHAT IF I NEVER SEE ANY OF MY FRIENDS AGAIN!??!

37. What if grad school classmates are the worst?!?!

38. No, it'll be fine, I'm fine, everything fine!

39. I can't wait until May! Grad school is going to be the best time of my life

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
