Graduating a semester early is something that many college students decide to do. While the percentage of students graduating early varies from school to school, there's one thing that all college students graduating early share: "Am I sure?" We have a million thoughts running through our heads every second.

1. What am I going to do after I graduate?

Giphy

They always say major doesn't equal career. But what the heck do I want for my career? What do I want to do with my life? I only have so much time left to figure it out!

2. Omg these job applications though

Giphy

Job applications all ask the same questions... over... and over... and over. Why can't they just auto-fill in my responses. God knows I've filled out like 30+ applications already.

3. Maybe I’ll just push graduation back a semester

Giphy

Well... if I fail this class I can push back graduation at least another semester. Then I would have more time to figure out what I want to do and spend a little more time in college before going into the real world 100%.

4. No I’m poor I need to graduate

Giphy

However, I actually have zero dollars in my bank account to pay for any more rent or tuition. Not to even mention the countless bills I have to pay for college crap.

5. Where am I comfortable moving?

Giphy

There's an opportunity in the middle of Nebraska? I've never been there. How about Wisconsin? How many hours would I have to spend on the road to visit my closest relative?

6. Is it time to just drink away my worries?

Giphy

It's five o'clock somewhere right? Senior year means all the stress and none of the fun. How else are we supposed to make it through?

7. Senior year, don't care

Giphy

I don't care if Kappa Apple Pi has a big scandal. I've got an exam in two days but catch me at Mid instead. SYFI. #iykyk

8. Wow I’m gonna miss this place

Giphy

I'm going to miss all the little nuances of my semi-small college town. The cute brunch places, the things only college students do, all my friends, football, etc...

9. Wait... no I’m not

Giphy

On the other hand... I hate crowded bars and little freshman boys. Nevermind I am definitely ready to move on.

10. My last __________

Giphy

My last first day of school... my last football game... my last date function... this is all so weird.

11. How did time go by so fast?

Giphy

It's time??? Already??? How did we get here? I guess it's time to move on and decide what I'm going to do with the rest of my life now.

We Need More Than Memorials this Memorial Day
Cape Cod Irish

When I was a child, I used to look forward to Memorial Day Weekend from the time I returned to school after Christmas vacation. It was the yearly benchmark announcing the end of the school year and the beginning of summer vacation. It meant I was one step closer to regattas, swim meets and tennis matches.
