The symptoms of this terrible condition include falling asleep in interesting classes, dark circles under the eyes, and numb brains. So what causes this disease? Working until close at a fast food place, going to three meetings in one night, rehearsing until late hours, writing essays until two in the morning, reading a five hundred page novel in one night or just staying out with friends too late. All of these factors lead to the dreadful deadbeat doldrum syndrome. The plain fact is that students are too busy. They try to cram so much into one day that they exhaust themselves. However, at times, they have no desire to do anything but laze around, but instead they are forced into long hours by teachers, bosses, coaches, parents and advisors. Can a student choose to avoid this problem? Well, he can drop out of society to become a T.V. junkie who bloats on food. However, most students seem to add more hours to their lives by becoming more active. Most students are never able to overcome the disease until the day of graduation. Then, reality hits them — they are depressed because they have nothing to do. High school life is a no win situation which ends up with zombie students who have the deadbeat doldrum syndrome. To all students who have ever experienced the deadbeat doldrums, we take our hats off to you! 6 STUDENT LIFE
