^^ *Hi there face*
(Senioritis):
noun. A crippling disease that strikes high school seniors. Symptoms include: laziness, an over-excessive wearing of track pants, old athletic shirts, sweatpants, athletic shorts, and sweatshirts. Also features a lack of studying, repeated absences, and a generally dismissive attitude. The only known cure is a phenomenon known as Graduation.
So yeah pretty much all of the above ^^. I'm doing everything within my power to stay strong and productive. I can be productive 75% of the time. It's just every now and then a wave of "I'm sick of sitting here reading, writing, and busting my brain out in math". (That's when you're supposed to respond with a "Amen, sister"). Anyways prayers would be appreciated. Not only for me but all seniors unfortunately this disease affects thousands of HS seniors everyday. But I can't get lazy and sloppy in my work. Because it's God's will that I do well in all that I do. He put me through these 3 1/2 years and he'll get me through the next 4-5 months! Great thing about being Catholic is that there is literally a prayer for everything. I know St. Thomas Aquinas is the patron Saint of students and studies. You'll be amazed how much he can help you in your study life! (see here)
A Student's Prayer (by St. Thomas Aquinas)
Come, Holy Spirit, Divine Creator, true source of light and fountain of wisdom!
Pour forth your brilliance upon my dense intellect, dissipate the darkness which covers me,
that of sin and of ignorance. Grant me a penetrating mind to understand, a retentive memory,
method and ease in learning, the lucidity to comprehend,
and abundant grace in expressing myself.
Guide the beginning of my work, direct its progress, and bring it to successful completion.
This I ask through Jesus Christ, true God and true man,
living and reigning with You and the Father, forever and ever.
Amen.
Amen.
