Sophomore Jinx

Alright kiddies, there are two definitions for this.

1) In baseball, this refers to the superstition that a rookie's second year will be a bad one, i.e. he gets injured, plays a horrible season, or the team falls apart on account of his playing style.

2) In college, it refers to the time when classes are getting much harder, sometimes even the harder than the following years in an undergraduate program. It can also refer to the student changing his/her major and having a hard time with it at first.
1) There are too many to list, check the stats at www.mlb.com

2) Little Billy suffered the Sophomore Jinx when he broke down working on a Rigid Body Mechanics assignment. He's now an Anthropology major.

Sophomoritis

The disease many Sophomores in high school are stricken with. Usually occurs once an individual has become accustomed to the routine of high school. Symptoms include laziness, the gradual discontinuation of homework being completed, elevated sociability, and a desire to partake in the use of drugs.
Shirley was a straight-A student last year, but she's not doing so well academically this year. I think she has a case of Sophomoritis.

sophomore

A sophomore is a student in their second year of high school or college. They are usually considered the useless class:
-the freshmen being the.. well, freshmen,
-the juniors are pressured from sats and realizing this is their last shot to fix their shitty gpa,
-and the seniors roaming the halls and doing absolutly nothing waiting to graduate, leaving the sophomores at a standstill doing the better part of nothing.
dude: wow. it sucks for garr that hes a freshmen, the seniors will probably annoy the hell out of him.

dude2: yeah i know. sucks for joe too now that hes a junior, sats and all that crap. good thing we're sophomores and dont have anything to do.

sophomore

Really the laid back year in high school and kids are the nicest. Classic teenagers. The only thing you really need to worry about sophomore year is getting a learners permit and maybe have an idea where you want to go to colllege, but the rest is a pretty easy ride. But you get pounded with a lot of homework that year and your classes are gritty. This is usually the year to read Shakespeare and you usually take an American History and Biology/Chemistry class that year. You may take world too in some schools.

These kids are usually head up your ass teenegers. A lot of dating, teen pregancies, anorexia, etc. The worry of fitting in is not as bad as 9th so you turn into slobs watching Family Guy. This is the age when you like to go old school and start liking classic rock. The teenage classic rock/indie heads are usually sophomores, but you get corporate by junior year.
Oh look at me an head up your ass sophomore watching Family Guy. College...eh...that is a long way.
