Senioritis…definitely a word that has been tossed around a lot my entire high school career. Since sophomore year I have heard people complaining about having it, but until now I never really had a complete understanding of it.
Before I just thought it was having no motivation to do any work, in school and especially out of school. I was so wrong.
Now that I am a senior I can officially say I have senioritis. I have absolutely no motivation to do work in school, and of course out of school. But even worse, I just do not care anymore.
I have been accepted into college and know exactly what I am doing next year. I have filled out my housing contract for next year, and I am even looking at potential roommates. With college seeming so real now, high school just seems like a joke.
I do not care about my high school classes anymore now that I have achieved what I worked so hard for the past four years.
Now it is even harder for me to actually go to school and stay for the whole day. I do not think I have been to a full week of school since school has been back from winter break, whether it be in-services, excused absences, or just plain staying home.
So just let me say this whole senioritis thing stinks. I don’t like it. In my opinion someone needs to make a cure for it because it’s becoming a disease in my life. Even writing down all of these problems doesn’t motivate me to become a better student and finish out the school year strong.
I don’t know how I’m going to make it through until May 3. All I know is it’s going to be one tough battle, the easiest year of my high school career is slowly becoming my hardest.
