3 Quotes To Get You Through Finals Week

3 Motivational Selections to Inspire You During Finals Week

The time has come: FINALS WEEK.

Along with finals week: libraries stay open 24/7, coffee spills are at an all-time high, papers are written, highlighters lose their color, papers get accidentally shredded, we all lose our numbers allowed to print, our pens lose ink, our professors don't understand we have five other classes, our parents send us care packages, and the list goes on. What my goal here is to give you three quotes to brighten up your finals week! And if you aren't participating in finals week, may these quotes get you through the day or week. Teaser: All of these quotes are somewhere in my dorm room… Side note: I LOVE QUOTES!!!

·"Life is not about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself"

oThis quote is hanging near my bedside for me to wake up to every morning and read it, essentially serving its purpose for my trying to live by that quote every single day.

·“The courage to be great lies deep within each of us”

oThis is actually a fortune cookie from Golden Wok in Pittsburgh from my first time there with some friends after a late night. This fortune lets us know that if we truly believe in ourselves, we can achieve greatness.

·“Keep your eyes on the stars and keep your feet on the ground”

oThis quote is laying right above my head to remind me to stay grounded, but always stay focused on my dreams.

God bless anyone who does not have to experience the stress of final exams and congratulations to all those people who safely got through finals week, whether you did it this year or five years ago.

Letter To My High School Friend Group

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo
