I know what you are thinking, why is referring back to junior year where there was junioritis? Well, you get to junior year, you will learn these important life lessons like I did.

Here are the 31 important life lessons I learned from junior year:

1. It's less about quantity and more about quality.

2. Good friends are rare, so hold onto them.

3. Everyone is going through something.

4. You have to work for what you want.

5. Nobody is really sure what they're doing.

6. Nobody is going to do things for you.

7. Everything your parents told you was right.

8. You probably won't end up where you thought you'd be.

9. You'll end up exactly where you're supposed to be.

10. The ability to forgive is so important.

11. You can love someone, but you can't change them.

12. Sometimes you have to let them go.

13. Some people will never get their priorities straight.

14. You don't have to accept things you are not okay with.

15. It's okay and sometimes necessary to put yourself first.

16. Asking for help doesn't make you weak-it makes you wise.

17. Friends you tear you down aren't "friends" at all

18. People will take advantage of you if you let them.

19. The scariest things are usually the worthwhile things.

20. You can do far more than people think you are capable of.

21. You won't remember the nights you sat in and studied.

22. Take pictures--and lots of them.

23. Love is a two-way street.

24. Beauty is skin deep.

25. You're going to feel lonely sometimes.

26. Someone always has your back.

27. Listen to your gut feelings.

28. Moments and memories are more important than material things.

29. Holding in your feelings will hurt you more.

30. Do things while you have the chance.

31. Stay true to yourself.

These are the important life lessons and once you get to your junior year, you will mature a lot from freshman year. That happened to me and I am already in my senior year. Good luck!
