Motivational Quotes To Get You Through The School Year

As the dawn of a new school year rapidly creeps upon the horizon, the sherbet colors teem toward the skyline, its reddish pink liquid colors tauntingly reminding you that you'll soon be headed back to school. The colorful harbinger of the bittersweet approach of classes, classes and more classes is the 2015-2016 school year's vibrant colors leaking into the sky. And at first, there is a dewey momentum that this year, you will be organized, you will get that perfect GPA (or settle for close enough), and you will still be able to hit up every party. But soon the fresh drops of dawn's dew evaporate and you're left feeling, well, dry--unmotivated, sluggish, and summoned by Netflix's wide array of sitcoms and dramas.

So, before you get stuck in this seemingly irreversible slump, ingest these motivational quotes to keep the momentum going. Scrawl them in your Econ notebook or in the corner of your Spanish textbook for a little reminder that you can--and you will--succeed.

1. For when you're feeling discouraged:

2. For quelling any fears:


3. For those 3 a.m. cram sessions when you're wondering, "What's the point?":

4. For when you're feeling unproductive:


5. For when your midterm paper seems pointless:


6. For the times you think you need to skip the frat party everyone's been anticipating and study instead (remember to have fun):


7. For when you're missing home (remember that everyone misses home at some point):

8. For days when it's just a little too cold outside to get out of bed:

9. For nights when you have way too much on your plate--a hurricane of papers, readings, and meetings:

10. For when your procrastination has finally overruled your rational side and taken its place as king (because when it's the night before a final and you haven't studied yet, all you can do is pray):

11. For when you're telling the man in the mirror that he's not good enough:

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
