7 Thoughts You Have Before Your Senior Year Of College (As Told By Harry Potter Gifs)

Right now many of us are most likely working, spending time with friends, and coming terms with the fact that the 2016/2017 school year is right around the corner. For many of us, what seemed like something that was once so far off is now soon to be a reality, senior year. In honor of the class of 2017 soon starting our last year in college, and "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" recently coming out, here are seven thoughts of a senior about to graduate college, or Hogwarts.

1. "Where did the time go?"


It seems like just yesterday we were all fresh out of high school and excited to be starting our college careers, and yet we all have a mere few weeks until we start our final year in college. Even though we have all been told several times by friends and family members that “your college years fly by.”, it doesn’t truly resonate until you realize that freshman year was three years ago, and senior year is three weeks from now.

2. "I'm not ready for this."


Change can be scary and while we all know senior year is inevitable, it can be easy to doubt whether or not we’re ready to take that step into the adult world.

3. "I am ready for that.


On the other hand, we have all worked hard to get to where we are today and as much as we may not think we're ready for what lies a head, we know deep down that our senior year is going to have some amazing moments.

4. "I have no idea what the future holds."


If college has taught us anything, it's that not everything is set in stone and things change all the time. We may not know what step lies ahead or how we will handle whatever obstacles come our way, but we do know that being uncertain is OK and as one chapter of our book ends, another begins.

5. "I feel old."


Sure, in the grand scheme of things, we are only in our early- twenties, but we all remember how when we were 18, being 22 seemed like it was just a Taylor Swift song, and now, it will soon be a reality.

6. "I hope I get the internship/job I want."


Whether this year brings applications for internships, the jobs of your dreams, or both, we all have aspirations that we have been working toward, and we all hope we have done enough to get a little bit closer to our dream career.

7. "I'm going to make this the greatest year yet."


Despite being sad about it being the beginning of an end, senior year is an opportunity. It’s an opportunity to be involved in whatever you want to be involved in, and appreciate your surroundings as well as the people you surround yourself with. With less than a year remaining before we embark into the real world, this year will be full of "last's" and I plan to make all of them count.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
