15 Thoughts Every College Student Has The Summer Before Their Senior Year

In This Article:

When they say that time flies, they certainly do mean it. I have no idea how in just a few short months I will be entering my senior year at Penn State. It feels like yesterday I was nervously moving into Pennypacker, and now I am about to graduate. It's definitely a weird feeling for sure and has me thinking about a lot of things.

Here are 15 thoughts every college student approaching their senior year has thought this summer:

1. "I'm a Senior?!?!?!"

2. "No, but like seriously, wasn't I living in my freshman dorm like yesterday?"

3. "Freshman year forever, am I right? Things were SO MUCH easier back then." 

4. "Why am I tired, like, all the time?"

5. "Time to face the facts, I guess..."

6. "I actually need to start searching for an adult job... say what?!?!"

7. "At least finally being 21 helps numb the pain!"

8. "I miss living so close to all my friends!" 

9. "Wait... You mean after graduation we are going to see each other even less?!?!?!"

10. "I'm GRADUATING?! This can't be right... I'm still 12." 

11. "I should probably have a boyfriend by now..." 

12. "At least I can go to class looking like this..." 

13. "Speaking of my attitude towards class anymore..." 

14. "I'll probably be 15 minutes late and try to leave early... apologies to my professors in advance!"

15. "With all this in mind, thank you Penn State for the best four years of my life and making me the person I am today! I can't wait to return as an alum!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
