Being a senior in college is an emotional roller coaster. One minute you have your whole life figured out and the next minute you're crying over your senior thesis. Senior year is stressful and we have so much going on in our minds, especially as graduation is approaching. Here are 25 thoughts every senior has before graduation:

1. I can't believe I actually passed.

2. Are you sure I passed?

3. Does this mean I have to be an adult now?

4. Finding a job is hard.

5. Do I need to finish the rest of my assignments?

6. I'm gonna miss these people.

7. Except that guy. He was the worst.

8. I already miss my roommate and I haven't even graduated yet.

9. Wait. When's graduation?

10. I need to decorate my cap.

11. Time really flies. Didn't I just graduate high school?

12. I am so old. I'm practically a grandmother.

13. How do I afford anything while paying for student loans?

14. Is this fair? Am I the only one broke?

15. My life is over after I walk across that stage.

16. Or just beginning.

17. But probably over.

18. I'm going to have so much time to workout and eat healthy now.

19. But I'm still lazy.

20. Did I pick the right major?

21. Is it too late to switch?

22. I'm stressed.

23. I can't do this.

24. I can do this.

25. Bring it on.

Admit it. We've all had at least one of these thoughts. We are not perfect. We all stress about entering the real world. I know I do. College goes by so fast, but never take it for granted. I am personally going to miss a lot of things about college and I hope to come back some day to visit the amazing professors I have met over the years and the beautiful campus. Seniors, we are all in this together. We got this fam.

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.

"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.

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.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
