Senioritis On the Rise

We all know that one senior who seems to have completely given up and that person could be you or me.  He or she may use the excuse "I've already been accepted so why try anymore?" or "I just want to get out of here."  But is senioritis really a viable excuse for the overall slacking off of the senior class?  I understand that we are all eager to step into the next chapter of our lives, but don't overlook the rest of this chapter that closes your high school years.  There is still much to look forward to and accomplish.  There are sporting events where we are called to root on our classmates as eagles, not a buckeye, redhawk, or bearcat.  Graduation will surely come sooner that we think and when it does, we won't have a chance to paint up with the flock, fight for that GPA, or attend dances.  Throughout the years we have all been chanting "YOLO," right?  So why not now take that infamous saying and live it out.  You only go to high school once, so live it out while you can.  High school is a critical time in our lives that we won't ever get back, so sit back, enjoy the ride, and don't let senioritis take over.
