7 Thoughts Every Senior Has Before Graduation

Thoughts every senior has when they realize that there is less than 50 days left of school before graduation.

All I need to do now, is pass.

When you have already been accepted and decided on a grad school, or figured out the job you’re going to go for after graduation (when you feel like a real adult), or just completely given into the no school no worries life, you have had this thought. Even the best, straight A students have a flicker of apathy near the end. And why shouldn’t you? You can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Life is waiting for you. All you have to do is finish 3 ten page papers, five finals, 2 quizzes and a group project. No big deal.

I mean, I don’t really have to do that homework assignment… right??

Yeah! Don’t worry about it. Go get a drink! Lay out on the beach! You deserve it! You worked hard for the last four years for this. Taco Tuesday? OF COURSE. Homework…schmomework.

It’s super weird that I’ll probably never see any of these people again in my life

I mean, I got weirdly attached to the strange seatmates I had in gen-ed classes. I might miss the people who work in the cafeteria who know how badly I eat every Tuesday and Thursday morning and still greet me with a smile without judging me (at least not out loud.. for all I know they could be saying ‘Ew, that girl is so gross’ and I would have no idea, and I would not care).

I am so proud of myself

I am graduating college. I am such a big deal. Life is going well. All I have to worry about is making sure my shoes look fly-AF when walking and I don’t trip and fall like my cousin did last year. That was embarrassing. *hair flip*

Cap and gowns cost HOW MUCH!?

Man, graduating is so expensive. Of course the culmination of all my student loans and hard work are paying off with a fattie bill of a couple g’s for a large non-fitted piece of ultra-scratchy fabric that is unbecoming on everyone. Don’t even get me started on the pizza box ‘hats’.

OMG I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT MY LIFE NOW

Wait, so I was just planning on traveling the world and bartending after I graduate. Is that not an adult thing to do? Do I really have to get one of those adult-jobs people talk about?

Who cares? I’m a senior! Time to celebrate!

Drinks anyone?

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
