6 Questions You Should Never Ask A Senior In College

Senior year is many things, but "calm" and "tranquil" are not on the list, unfortunately. Between applying for jobs, interning, completing final thesis projects/papers (and then presenting them), and trying to pack in five trillion things on that bucket list you've been ignoring, it's one long, crazy ride for most of us. And of course, just like your senior year of high school, there's plenty of unwanted questions headed your way which you are, in NO way, inclined to answer, remember. ;)

1. Are you busy?

Sorry peeps, the last time I was available, Hannah Montana was still on TV.

2. Don’t you feel old?

Thank you for pointing out my age, that's very kind of you. Yes I actually seem to be getting quite old because I can drink legally, but I also still get carded and still eat goldfish with my grilled cheese so no -- I do not "feel" old. But, if you really wanna get technical, I've been listening to Simon and Garfunkel for years, so I've pretty much always been old.

3. Is the cafeteria food good?

Now, if it was that good, would I really have downgraded my meal plan to the smallest possible option for my last semester here? I'm in it for the rainbow cookies and the ice cream bar when there's cake batter or mint. That is all.

(P.S. it's a college cafeteria, what do you expect?)

4. Do things really fall into place the older you get?

HELL NO, but you’ll tell yourself this until the day you graduate, or so I’m convinced. (I literally called my friend today because I didn't know how to use an iron. How am I supposed to hold down a steady job and pay all my bills on time next year?!?!).

5. What are you going to miss most?

NOT THESE QUESTIONS, THAT’S WHAT.

6. What are you doing after you graduate?

I am planning on pursuing a lifelong career in sleeping and eating, xoxo talk soon, thanks for asking.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
