It's That Time Of Year Again

Again?

When It's That Time Of Year Again, it's time to do something you don't want to again. You know it'll be grating, sluggish, and miserable all the way, but you need to do it. You drag yourself through this thing, not enjoying yourself in the slightest. You keep checking the clock to see if you suffering is finally done, only to see that it hasn't even been ten minutes. You let out a deep sign of pure anguish and defeat as the end seems to be years away.

People in fiction can feel this way too. With school, the students feel like going to school everyday is That Time Of Year Again. Things in school that are annual and will actually be That Time Of Year Again are SATs, PTAs, TEFs, MRIs, NUTs, and FUKs. No one wants to do them, but they have to as it's required by law. In family, it might be That Time Of Year Again when the Main Family is scheduled to visit grandma and grandpa at the nursing home with all the weird old people who smell bad and do boring things.
