10 Signs You’re About to Become A College Senior

Dear Reader,

We only have a few weeks left in the school year. I still have papers to do, videos to edit, blogs to publish and an internship to finish out. Dear reader, I'm freaking out! Instead of doing the above, I'm going to write a blog about it. That's what I do best.

The end of the school year can be scary to a lot of people. I have friends who are about to graduate who are hard on the job hunt. Freshman have to worry about going home and facing their high school boyfriends and girlfriends they broke up with sometime in March. Juniors have different challenge. Sometime over the past semester it hit you that you are about to become a college senior. It's terrifying.

Not sure it has hit you quite yet? See if you're experienced any of the following:

1. You Know Everybody

Okay, not everybody, but you know a lot of people on campus. To the point where you know who's your buddy, who's your foe, and who's the person you avoid at all cost.

2. Half Your Friends have Graduated (Or are About to Graduate)

Yes, you're scared. But it's also really cool. You're about to enter the home stretch of college. The learning isn't over yet. We've got papers to write, internships to get, and memories to make. Deep Breath. We've got this.
