EDITORIAL Senior year is the beginning of the end: the end of familiar high school and even childhood itself. Due to this, many seniors contract the deadly illness best known as “senioritis,” in which 12th graders coast by and savor the last moments of their comfortable high school existence. This senior is not one of them. From advanced courses to scholarship essays, college visits to senior pictures, I’ve barely had time to catch my breath, let alone relax! Seniors are presented with a most daunting decision: what to do with the rest of their lives! Personally, I can barely decide what to order at Subway, so having to plan out the remainder of my life is no small task! Perhaps the most stressful aspect of this choice is that it is one that only the student can make. Mom and Dad can’t tell you where to go to school or what to study. My parents have been wonderfully supportive, often stating, “This is your decision! Do what you want!” Some days, however, I just want to plead with them to make these decisions for me. As long as they don’t suggest becoming a mathematician or physicist, that is. Another note, underclassmen: homework does not stop senior year. Teachers will still assign essays and tests regardless of your severe senioritis. For those perfectionistic students like me, this is perhaps the most diffi cult part of senior year: how can I make all the preparations for my future with an English essay to fi nish and a calculus test to Lexi Streifel study for? My suggestion for coping mechanisms: a planner and lots of coffee. A misconception about senior year is that grades don’t matter anymore. This is wrong. Even if you submit last year’s transcript, your college will more than likely see that D+ in AP Biology eventually. Maybe this is only the case for the Type-A girl, but I’ve still felt the pressure of grades, making senioritis all the more deadly. So, my fellow non-seniors, enjoy your time here. Study hard. Be involved. Make lots of friends. Try to avoid the senioritis-bug second semester of junior year. Don’t be afraid of the senior stress! We all have to endure it, but we will all come out stronger and wiser in the end.
