Last year of high school. Basically there to tear shit up. Last chance to not give a fuck before stepping out into the real world. Last homecomings. Last chance to play sports for some of us. Last chance to show people who you are. The year where you go balls out.

Type 1 Senioritis:
Most common form of "senioritis" and most contagious.
It tends to manifest itself when a fourth year high school student is half way through the first semester, waiting for winter vacation. This may last till graduation
symptoms within the student:
1. Lack of homework completion
2. Procrastination through reasoning
a."Fck it, I can pass the class without these last homework assignments";
b."Ill do it tomorrow before homeroom"
*tomorrow comes, home room ends*
"Ill do it during my free"
*fails to do homework during free, free ends*
-fails to hand in homework
"Ill do it tonight, and hand it in tomorrow..I'll still get some points"
(cycle repeats).
3. Last Minute Cramming
4. Student often questions him/her self if they actually have senioritis, yet they blame
all shortcomings on it.
5. Wasting time on Facebook, Myspace or even World of Warcraft(more severe)
6. Increase in the use of Slang
7. Increase in Sexual Activity (heterosexual , masturbation, massive orgyprom,etc)
Type 2 senioritis:
This form of senioritis can be found among students who boast higher averages, or those who just have more of an inclement workload. This type of senioritis is rather complicated, resulting in the student suddenly having a complacent attitude toward assignments that are not as urgent to be completedNOT as in AP/College/Honors assignments.
OR
It can be visa-versa
resulting in the student completing all of the less difficult assignments, and neglecting more rigorous academic activities.
This type of senioritis usually manifests itself through the influence of seeing another (of less academic standing) neglect schoolwork, and yet manage to pass with high 70's to mid 80's.

9. Not studying for ANYTHING
Type 3 senioritis:
This is the culmination of complacency and academic neglect. This can only succeed Type 1 (rarely) or Type 2 senioritis. At this point, the unfortunate student loses all academic fervor and perception on the purpose of education. There is no cure for this type of senioritis.
common expressions of a student suffering from type 3 senioritis:
"FxCK SKEWL"
Most likely a student suffering from this type of senioritis will end up dropping out of school, right before failing all classes.

One of Mom's many seniorisms is constantly losing her housekeys, which often turn up in some pocket or other. She's always stashing and forgetting.

(n) A widely-accepted concept which states that individuals who have been affiliated with a group for a longer period of time (and thus proven their dedication to the group) should have priority over newer members in matters such as rank and decision-making. It is applicable to many groups, especially those where such "senior" members have only a short period of time remaining before they are expected to leave the group, but does not work well in other situations.
Simon: Thomas, Justin is mad at me. He doesn't like that I attained a higher chair placement than him in THE prestigious Eagan High School Wind Ensemble!
Thomas: How dare he even consider the idea the chair placements that I so carefully determined could be wrong! Justin, just because you are older than Simon does not mean you have seniority!
Justin: But sir! You know very well that I am by far the most dedicated member of this fine ensemble, and I have been a member for the longest! I practiced for hours to prepare for my audition!
Thomas: I have a prestigious degree in music education from Northwestern! You shouldn't challenge the superhuman hearing abilities of what God gave me. Anyone who thinks they deserve a higher placement because of seniority - well, I hope the door doesn't hit your rear end on the way out!
Jeff: But Thomas, with such a solid audition system, Justin should logically be the section leader, just like I am! Right Brett?
Brett: Absolutely, Jeff! With you as section leader, the logically determined Eagan High School Wind Ensemble Percussion Section is destined for greatness, especially with my highly productive lessons! Unfortunately, because I don't have any seniority, I won't be around next year to see it.
Real Simon: That's a shame, because he was such an experienced instructor - and good looking, too!

I got on my computer to do chemistry homework, but then I went to urban dictionary to see if my lack of motivation in anything was senioritis.
I found out I have senioritis, so then instead of doing my chemistry homework, I wrote the bajillionth definition of senioritis on urban dictionary.
I now had time to do my chemistry homework, but proceeded to edit my definition of senioritis on urban dictionary instead.
