Senioritis, from the word senior plus the suffix -itis (which refers to inflammation but in colloquial speech is assumed to mean an illness), is a colloquial term used in the United States to describe the decreased motivation toward studies displayed by students who are nearing the end of their high school, college and graduate school careers.
Thank you my friend Wiki.
Every Friday afternoon, everyone gets a touch of this. This Friday, however, with the gorgeous sun and perfectly cool temperatures, it's absolutely brutal.
Happy Weekend!

Birfday fun
This blog has been sorely neglected. I guess I've been busy. Happy busy, for sure.
Since my birthday is this Sunday, I thought a birthday meme would work.
Courtesy of fellow Aries, Katie!
How many birthdays have you celebrated so far?: This will be my 29th birthday. Wow, that sounds like a lot.
When is your next one coming up?: Sunday! Easter Sunday, to be exact. The last time my birthday fell on Easter, I don't necessarily remember it, but I am not sure how I feel about sharing my birthday with a holiday. Is that selfish?
If you could get anything, realistically speaking, what would you ask for?: Um, money? But who doesn't want that? And if I could be really cheesy for a second, I really wanted H to have off all weekend, and he does! So, I guess I got what I asked for :)
If you could ask for something magic or like superpowers, which kind?: Easy. A remote control for time.
Who do you want to be with during your birthdays?: Everyone I love!
How do you plan to celebrate your upcoming birthday?: We have the whole weekend! Starting with, well...last night actually. I mean, H was off last night and we went up to have dinner with my Mom. Tonight, he is off again and who knows what we will do! Tomorrow night, dinner with Jackie and my Mom and the delicious Clam Tavern. Then Saturday and Sunday are completely open! The only plans we've really talked about are going up to Ridley Creek State Park on Saturday morning and then a nice dinner on Saturday night. I almost feel a bit overwhelmed with possibilities of what to do, especially with such nice weather! Whatever we do, it will be great.
What was the worst present you ever got on a birthday?: Oh, I cannot even think of one, actually.
What was the worst birthday fiasco you ever had: Two years ago, I had a tough birthday week. A string of bad luck and unfortunate events made for an uneasy feeling on April 4th, but I made it through.
Did you ever purposely give someone a crappy gift?: Never!
Who would you never ever ever want to attend your birthday?: Oh again, I don't know. Isn't this supposed to be a happy time?!?!
What was the best birthday present you’ve ever received?: A surprise party and a book of letteres written to me by all of my friends and family. I think that was for my 25th.
What was the best birthday you’ve ever had?: Besides my 25th with the suprise party and book, my 21st was great too.
Why was it so great?: I was living in DC for school with five of my favorite girls and my Mom surprised me and came to visit! We had a cake, drinks and then she came out to the bars with us. It was so fun.
What is your fave birthday activity, even if you havent done it (yet)?: I love just allowing myself to be a little self-indulgent and selfish with attention.
Who would you love to come to your birthday to celebrate with you?: Easy, my Dad.

What did your family do to celebrate your birth?: When I was in grade school, my Mom would send me into school with Dunkin Donuts munchkins for the class and then bring me a Happy Meal from McDonald's for lunch. Parties and sleepovers with my friends...parties at the skating rink.
What happened for your sweet 16th birthday?: My Mom bought me a car! A powder blue Chevy Cavalier station wagon. She even put the big red bow on it!
Would you be okay with dying on your birthday?: I think I would...I feel like it would be strangely fitting.
