Syllabus Week as Told by a Second Semester Senior

Starting a new seemseter is always a bittersweet experience for college students. Starting a new semester is especially bittersweet for those second semster seniors facing their upcoming graduation and ultimately the real world. Here’s to each one of you struggling through your last semester!

1. Everyone arriving back to campus excited to see their friends while you sit back and remember you only have 15 weeks of undergrad left.

2.  Everyone wanting to party on the first night back but you have your first senior seminar class in the morning and you need your sleep.

3. Everyone going out on day 2, and you just want to crawl into your bed because you were told all the work you’re expected to do before you graduate.

4. Realizing, with extreme terror, that you don’t have a job after college.

5. Looking at all the underclassmen dressing up for class and laughing because maybe the shirt you’re wearing was washed in the past 2 weeks?

6. Sobbing into your morning latte as you realize you’re going to have to pay actual money, not pacer points, for these in four short months.

7. Finally letting loose and going out; but going a little too hard because its senior year and in four moths you have to be an adult.

8. Looking around at all of the friends you’ve accumulated throughout college and crying because you wont be down the hall from each other anymore.
