Seniorits: As Told By 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt'
Huff Post

It's that time of year for seniors. Graduation is right around the corner, and we've done everything: ordered caps and gowns, double and triple-checked our apply-to-graduate form, and planned our senior week itinerary down to the last minute. As much as we love college, there is a part of us that just really wants the festivities to begin and the mundanity of classes and homework to go away.

That's called "senioritis."

It's a disease that develops when seniors stop caring about their classes and are too anxious for the next step to focus on anything trivial. The cast of "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"understands. As the days go on, we being to feel more and more antsy and sarcastic like the forever-child, Kimmy. Here are some signs you've got a bad case of senioritis:

1. You start being blatantly honest to your professors when they ask if you did the reading.



2. You can't handle even the tiniest obligation.



3. Your diet's gone out the window.


4.You start sharing unsolicited sage advice to underclassmen.


5. You're so old that you've forgotten all the hip words kids are saying these days.


6. You often find yourself drifting off into a sea of missed opportunities and regrets from the last four years.



7. You've become increasingly withered looking.


8. But you walk around like everything's fine.



9. When really you're just an all-around hot mess.


10. But the thing that keeps you going is that zero obligations is just around the corner.

Until you enter the real world, that is. So hang in there, fellow seniors-- the end is nigh for better or for worse.

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Grey's Anatomy

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."
