Is it over yet?

by Katie Jochems

School is almost out, finals are coming, and two more major college tests are waiting. May and June may just be the death of me. Not only am I completely ready for summer, but I have almost no motivation to finish the concluding work at school. I don’t remember the end of May being this stressful, but man I just want it to be over!
I’m at that stage where I can see the finish line, so I slow down, and then I get passed by the others, but never actually attempt to pick up the pace. It’s an awful feeling, like I’m being weighed down and don’t know how to release some of the burden, so instead I’m just waiting until I finally pass through the finish, even if I am last. Maybe its anticipation of have a few months off, or maybe it’s how junior year has killed my spirit. Hopefully, I can come back next year much better than I am now.
