Whether you're facing college finals, high school midterms, or just those last, grueling, hellish days of school and studying before break, you need a little encouragement. So, here are eight quotes -- many with powerful scenes of nature! -- to get you through this week alive.

1.


Everything starts with your decision to succeed. Whether it's studying for something you reeaaallly should have started studying weeks ago for, or just doing a simple homework assignment, it starts with you. So, take a good, hard look at that packet staring you in the face right now, and tell it, and yourself, that you can and will do this! Then go eat a snack for effort.


2.

I know. It's hour three (or, heck, minute three) of studying, and you think I just can't do this anymore. Guess what? You can. Take a shot of chocolate milk, blast that Shrek soundtrack, and keep plowing. I promise, it will pay off.


3.

In case you need a reminder why the heck any of this even matters: education is important. Not only will it carry you through life fiscally, but intellectually. School gives you so much. Appreciate it. Value it. There's a lot of people who would give anything to have the chance to do your chapter notes and learn what you're learning.


4.

But don't forget it isn't everything in life. You're going to learn so much more from simply living life than reading a textbook.


5.

And don't let a couple tests or a grade define you. You are so much more.


6.

Eh, maybe you won't get 100's on everything. But who really does?? Take those L's with a sunny disposition and a positive attitude! :)


7.

This week will end. I promise. Listen to the Robinsons and Keep Moving Forward.


8.

GOOD LUCK ON WHATEVER YOUR ENDEAVOR THIS WEEK MAY BE! I firmly believe in you as a person and as a dedicated individual. You can conquer anything in your path. Just try your best and say a prayer.

And if you fail?

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.

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

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
