Everyone knows that spring semester is always much harder to get through than the fall semester. Whether it’s because we’re still exhausted from first semester, or because the weather is bad and we’re trapped inside, procrastination is usually at an all-time high. Instead of waiting until the last minute (again) to study for your bio test or write that English paper, here’s a little inspiration to check out while on a study break to get you motivated again.

1. Procrastination has started to take over:

2. All too often, this is the story of spring semester:

6. Lend a hand to your fallen comrades:

7. Stop taking breaks to check Facebook, because a five-minute break always turns into something much longer:

12. You might even have to set foot in the library:

13. And stop settling for less than your best just because you waited until the last minute:

14. No more writing essays at the last minute:


15. Don't give up now:

16. You can do this:

17. You want this to be you:


18. If something's not working, make a change:

19. This sloth believes in you:


20. Don't let your dreams just be dreams:


21. Remember: spring break is just around the corner!

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!

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.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.
