Senioritis. True, its not in Webster's, but its in Urban Dictionary, so that makes it kind of an official term, right? At any rate, dictionary entry or not, I feel like I am suffering from a pretty bad case of it. The worst part, is that I am usually a really motivated, high-achieving individual. All throughout college, I have worked hard to get great grades. Now, I couldn't possibly have a better gig lined up for me...I will be working for Teach For America, I am graduating Cum Laude, and my parents couldn't be more proud (as am I) of the work I have done in school. But somehow, even with all these accomplishments, I can't seem to write a 3 page paper! I can't seem to sit down and read 5 chapters in a textbook, and don't even ask about researching for a semester-long group project. I am burnt out. Officially. I am exhausted from school, work, and studying, and I can't seem to snap out of it. GAHHHHHH. (This is an expression of my frustration) Now, I only seem to have acquired the illness this past week, so I am sure that eventually (preferably soon) I will find the cure...or at least something to curb it until May 6th. And just so teachers recognize this is a real deal problem, I have included an article for your viewing pleasure! To all you graduating seniors: We can do it! We've done it for 3 1/2 years, we can definitely do it for 2 more months... I'll see you on the podium!!
