The Senioritis is Strong With This One

<p>Today was the first day of my last semester of high school. I just had a long break and I still feel overwhelmed by just the idea of being in school again. My motivation is waning. I know I'm not the only senior struggling. How are you guys dealing with senioritis?</p>

<p>I’ve caught a strand of senioritis where only class is damaged (AP calc)</p>

<p>The side effects of this strand include: sleep apnea, anxiety, and imgonnagetmyadmssionrecind-osis</p>

<p>I fell asleep in school for the first time ever. I didn’t even sleep during nap time in pre-school.</p>

<p>Apathy, apathy, apathy… I just don’t care that much. All I want is to get into a good college and these grades barely matter as long as I maintain As (not a struggle). I just want to sleep and never return.</p>

<p>I’m sending my mid-year grades tomorrow. I’ve gotten straight As during high school to get into a good college, but all I have to do now is get don’t-kick-me-out-your-college grades. Don’t really see the point of working hard for the rest of the year. Strongly considering not doing it.</p>

<p>im pretty sure senioritis hit me even before senior year even started. i am 1000% done dealing with everything. doing the bare minimum to keep my grades at high Bs and As and just making the most out of time with friends</p>

<p>tropicalslushies. What a delicious name. Would drink.</p>

<p>I’m not even done with first semester. Assssssssssssssssssssssssssss</p>

<p>Haha, junioritis! After a summer program this past summer held at a college (I was there the majority of the summer), I have been wanting to get to college even faster. I hated my high school before that, but I have especially hated it since. I still am getting all A’s (mostly A+'s) with my lowest grade being a 98% last semester, but I literally hate every second of it. Today just about killed me, I swear. This junioritis thing is really annoying (I’m pretty sure I have arthritis, as well, which is also very annoying and equally as painful as the horrible school I go to).</p>

<p>I’ve always been sort of unmotivated and inclined to procrastinate, so senior year hasn’t really been much different. I take college classes full-time, and that helps because I feel like I’m in my first (of five) years of college rather than in my last year of high school.</p>

<p>Well, i’m pretty sure i’ve had ‘senioritis’ since 7th grade…i go to school, but i balance the attended days and my absent days enough that i’ve been getting truancy letters since 8th grade. Yayyy haha however, my school can’t really hound me for not coming when i’ve been getting mostly A’s and a couple B’s and my classes being honors and AP. But hey, i’m graduating this year (a year early) and it is kinda overwhelming to think that this is my last semester in high school…i just wanna be done already!</p>

<p>My Winter break homework hasn’t been touched since I got it. I planned on doing it the Sunday before we returned to school, but with the weather in Michigan (-10 degrees with wind gusts that make it feel like 60 below) school has been closed until tomorrow… Honestly, I’m not sure if it’s senioritis or what, but I’d rather write scholarship essays and do my college work (dual enrollment) that isn’t due for at least a week than my stupid grade 12 work due tomorrow.</p>

<p>It seems a lot of us thought we had senioritis a while ago. But now that I’m actually a senior I realize it was never as bad as it is now.</p>

<p>@tropicalslushies, it gets worse? Oh no…</p>

<p>I’ve had it since sophomore year, and it definitely gets worse. This last semester was the first semester ever where I have had two B’s. And I pretty much did nothing. Kind of a testament to how lenient my teachers are lol. I turned in some homework like 2 weeks late and was like a week behind all 2nd quarter in AP Calc. I literally just don’t care about school anymore. I am seriously considering dropping AP Chem because I just don’t want to deal with the crap. I would take Government (a literal joke class at my school) and Intro to Business (frosh-standing) lol. But I am actually interested in those classes lol.</p>

<p>So much senioritis. I actually have a B+ in a class right now… THE HORROR! Haha but seriously, first one since freshman year and I can feel myself slipping. Knowing where I’m going (early decision) makes it even harder. I’m coping by doing a lot of reading outside of class and not doing homework or anything.</p>

<p>Seriously though knowing I could get Bs with absolutely no effort (As with a little bit of effort) and maybe even a C and not have any repercussions… so this is what senioritis feels like</p>

<p>Haha I seriously am resigned to put in absolutely no effort! I’m dying with a C/B in AP stats but the rest of my classes are pretty well easy A’s. I’m so done with school, but I can’t help wanting to get the As anyway…ugh</p>

<p>I’m just barely continuing with a lot of motivational music. Once RD results are in I’ll probably tank except for my senior paper.</p>

<p>i feel sort of scared letting myself slack so much… ive decided to steam through all of my work as usual just to keep my work ethic up and running.
it’s not too bad, its nice if I get a lot of textbook stuff because doing all the problems is like meditation</p>
