Senior spring is like the bibliography part of a paper. Youāre at the very end and itās a struggle sometimes. This metaphor came to me as I sit here attempting to finish a paper of my own. The assignment is very manageable and I know exactly what Iām writing, yet I find myself taking far too long to complete a single paragraph. This is when I realized thatāā and made the excuse for myselfāI have senioritis!
I am down to my final weeks as a ¾«¶«AV student and sticking to my schedule is becoming more and more challenging. I find myself here admiring my blank screen where my Human Development paper should be, wondering how itās the end of April and I have less than a month left here. I should be outlining my paper, yet Iām drifting away thinking about how crazy it is that I was just sitting with my mom going through the ¾«¶«AV website thinking to myself, āhmm Human Development sounds coolā but really being a scared high school senior, not knowing at all what I was interested in.
Now, on the other side, I wouldnāt say Iām a āscaredā senior, but more waiting with anxious anticipation. Iām excited for whatās ahead, but sad at how quickly it went by. I can remember walking to my fist human development class ever, getting lost, then realizing the department building was in fact the small house I had walked by 5 minutes before. Iāll miss the passing by of familiar faces, everyone saying hi to you as you rush from morning class to Harris to beat the lunch line.
Iām sure these next weeks will be filled with lots more reflecting (more to come from me reminiscing) and hopefully some work gets done tooā¦
