I had a bad case of scrolling anticipation when scrolling through 5,954 comments on a picture to find out what Adam said to Sal.

Summer Anticipation Disorder

That point in a school year, where summer break is finally in sight but still seems so far away. A moment in time where it's still too early to say, "Yay! It's almost summer!" but late enough in the school year where you just want to get out of there. Worse yet, those big scary exams are coming up, and you probably have a project or two that is worth more than half your grade lying around. Teachers are usually completing their curriculums around this time, and students have gotten noticeably cockier. Not to be confused with senioritis because this happens in almost every school year.

Person 1: Yay, summer's almost here!

Person 2: Dude, summer is still seven weeks away, chill out. You must have Summer Anticipation Disorder.

The Moment of Anticipation

The feeling someone gets when something good or bad is about to happen. Or like when a battle is about to take place and every one gets real quiet right before the order is give to charge. It's a feeling that in and of itself is neither positive or negative. It's the defense mechanism that prepares us for what ever may come our way.

It's at the moment of anticipation, we all must make that hard decision to do or die.

anticipation

The anticipation phase starts the moment after taking a pill and lasts for 20 minutes to an hour, whilst you're waiting for it to kick in. This can be an exciting phase as you know something magical is coming at any moment but you don't know exactly when. There may be glimpses of it but this may also be the mind playing tricks before it really starts. For the more seasoned pill taker this moment may actually be 1 of frustration as they want to be there immediately.

Guy 1 "You there yet?"
Guy 2 "Nah still in the anticipation stage."
