I finally understand what senioritis is because I have seen/experienced all the symptoms:

Tiredness/Drowsiness- all through the day, you spend time thinking about how awesome it would be to leave class, go back to the apartment, and take a nap

Depression- realizing you need to find a job and figure out the question everyone seems to ask, “So what are you going to do after graduation ?” or even worse hearing in every AEM class, “this is the worse job market in 50 years, blah, blah, blah….”

Weight Gain- I haven’t personally experienced because I lost a ton of weight in China and gained some back while in America so it evened out, but a lot of my senior companions look like they used the summer as an opportunity to experience the 8-to-5 non-active lifestyle

Delusion- I am still in disbelief that classes have started, so much so I have only bought two course packets for the six classes I am currently enrolled in. I really believe school is starting soon, just not yet so I have all the time in the world.

Anger- Why am I in this class when clearly I’m not going to be talking about dinosaurs at one of my work meetings? Why am I taking so many credits? Why can’t I party on a Tuesday night? Why do I have night sections that’s my scheduled laying down on the couch time. I hate school, I hate looking for jobs, I hate my life!

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, the most likely remedy you will receive are those disappointing first round of prelims grades. That always bounces me back into shape!
