"I think I can. I think I can." said the little engine that could as it traveled slowly up the large hill in front of it. Sure enough, with this mantra in mind, the train that it could, did.

We all have mantras or slogan in our life that gets us through things, big and little. Need a few more to get your through the week? Fear not, my reader, I gotchu. Enjoy this compiled list of mantras and sayings by myself and others that I've grown accustom to threading into my life.

I don't regret it, I'm just now rethinking my life choices.

The past is the past, it happened and you can't undo that haircut, texts you just sent, or outfit from last night. But now you can rethink it for future reference. One mistake won't kill you, doing it over and over again just might though.

Youth and beauty fade. Human decency doesn't.

Being a kind person >>> knowing how to match an outfit. Sometimes we look like a garbage bag, and even if you don't, don't treat people like trash, okay?

Life is too short to be embarrassed.

Be weird, it's fun. Ask that D1 athlete for a selfie in class, don't hold back your HSM dance moves on the bus, accept the coffee stain on your shirt as you approach that attractive student, do you.

The bigger the shirt, the cuter the kid.

Rock. That. Oversized. Shirt. And. Don't. Look. Back.

I figure, as long as it looks like I'm not dying on the outside I must be doing okay.

In regards to walking up and down this campus, nothing makes you feel more out of shape than climbing Mt. Oread, but hey, as long as it looks like you're thriving...

The comfier the clothes, the more functional they are.

Oversized frocket= pocket and a dress. Elastic waistband= extra area to hold things. Sweatpants=side pockets. Moral of the story: pockets.

Thirty, flirty, and thriving.

This will get you through anything. Paddleboarding for the first time, driving down a mountain, pitching a tent. Anything.

You won't.

Oh yes, yes I can, and I will.

If you hit a wall, climb over it.

The struggle is real, but you can get past it, whether you climb it, push through, or dig a tunnel under it.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
