College as a whole goes by in the blink of an eye, but especially your senior year. It's the last few months of living in your perfect, responsibility free bubble where you get to sleep until 11 and go out every night.
Then spring semester rolls around and it hits you that you have to actually be a self-sufficient adult in 4 months and you get struck by the Senior Scaries. The combination of all of these confusing feelings leads to a very distinct set of stages that almost everyone who is a senior can understand.
1. Using YOLO and SYFI as an excuse to go insane.
2. Wearing your pajamas to class and not giving a single care about it.
3. Avoiding the question “What are your plans after graduation?”
4. Realizing how few skills you actually have while filling out job applications.
5. Avoiding checking your bank account because more likely than not it’s in the negatives.
6. Seeing freshmen on campus and refusing to believe you ever looked that small and innocent.
7. Going out literally every night of the week instead of studying.
8. When Senioritis is too real and you no longer have any motivation to leave bed ever.
9. Having panic attacks over the thought of entering the real world and having to be an adult.
