Everyone has bad days. Whether you failed a test or got into a fender bender, there might just be something you need to cheer up. Here's a small collection of cute and happy pictures to help brighten your day.

1. PUPPIES.

Just look at those faces and tell me you don't feel ten times better! Because in the words of Travis from The Choice, "there's nothin' cuter than puppies in a basket!"

2. Kids in Costumes

Because parents taking full advantage of their baby's cuteness and inability to fight what clothes they wear is too funny not to pass up.

3. A Pretty View

Hopefully this relaxes you and also makes you go to Pinterest and find an exact destination for your upcoming and much needed vacation.

4. A Funny Joke

OK, this may be more on the stupid side, but I'm sure it made you smile.

5. Good News

Somewhere, at some time today, a sweet little doggy got adopted and now has a loving home and family.

6. Someone's Face When They Get Scared

If these people's reaction to getting scared doesn't make you giggle, then you may have more compassion than most because that's plain funny.

7. A Good Memory

I wish I could tell you what your best memory is in order to cheer you up, but as soon as you saw this you thought of a memory didn't you? That's good. Just bask in that memory for a minute.

8. Something That Makes You Smile Even Though It's Stupid

Ridiculously stupid? I hope so!

9. A Sight for Sore Eyes

Hopefully the site of this amazing set up relaxes you. Maybe it also gives you inspiration to take a bubble bath yourself and relax.

10. More Sights for Sore Eyes

I mean come on. If The sight of a comfy bed, a fireplace and a dog don't put you at ease and brighten your day a bit then I don't know what will.

11. Something to Make You Relax

Ugh, just looking at that, I'm more calm.

12. A Reminder of Who Can Brighten Your Day

Just a list of some of the people that can help you smile when you are sad as well as the things you can do to get there.

13. An Inanimate Best Friend

Whatever your real best friend is that isn't human: chocolate, alcohol*, diamonds, go out and get some and make yourself happier. *Please drink responsibly

14. A Flashback to Your Childhood

A flashback to the easier days where you didn't have a care in the world can sometimes ease your hurt.

15. A Reminder

In case you needed to hear it: You Are Wonderful.

Hopefully these things brighten your day a little because you deserve to smile.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
