Senioritis

When I tried to find an appropriate image for this post, for some reason I found a lot of pictures of kittens with a bottle of beer.

Anyways, on to the topic of this post. Senioritis. Does it exist? Obviously it does. But I think that part of the reason it keeps existing is that people have been hearing about it for years and now think it must apply to them. Why does it have to? The point of being in school is to learn. In the ideal school, you would not have to be tested because the ultimate goal would be learning knowledge, learning how to learn, and learning how to interact socially, and if you really want to learn those things then there's really no reason to be tested. If you really wanted to learn, though, there wouldn't be Senioritis!

That was pretty muddled, but what I guess I'm saying is that you don't have to give in to Senioritis. If you think about it, your second semester in senior year is 1/8th of your whole high school career! Put another way, if you're going to a private school with a tuition of, hypothetically speaking, about $30,000, and you slack off for a semester, that's sort of like $15,000 down the drain!

Ironically I got the idea for this post because I am up past midnight, procrastinating on... sleeping. I'm done with my work but I'm still up, having fun doing random stuff. I think I'll go to bed soon.

Lastly, to sum up and conclude with ending finality, relax and enjoy 2nd semester—go to performances, sports games, hang out with friends, all that—but don't slack off too much! Don't get your college acceptances revoked!

OK well that post was really boring I think. They'll be better in the future I hope. Hey, I'm new to blogging, what do you expect! At least I included an image with this post. Give me a 2nd chance!
