20 Quotes We All Need To Hear This Finals Season

In This Article:

As a struggling college student, I've found that sometimes running to my dorm and breaking down after class is the best way to get rid of the stress school can bring. Once I've used about three boxes of tissues and talked to my Mom for an hour, it's about time I bounce back like the strong woman I am. I find that quotes are some of the best ways to make myself feel better. These are just a few quotes I've found over the years that I live by.

1. "Remember who you were before the world told you who to be."

2. "Every sixty seconds you spend being upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back."

3. "Sometimes, you just need a break. In a beautiful place, alone. To figure everything out."

4. "Just because my path is different doesn't mean I'm lost."

5. "Do no harm, but take no shit."

6. "You're not sensitive, they're just being a dick to you."

7. "Stop overthinking, just DO."

8. "Today, I will not stress over things I cannot control." 

9. "It always seems impossible until it is done."

10. "EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON."

11. "Nothing can dim the light that shines from within."

12. "Make it happen. Shock everyone."

13. "Life is tough, but you're tougher."

14. "Never confuse a single defeat with a final."

15. "Don't ever feel guilty for doing what's best for you." 

16. "If you wait until you're ready, you'll be waiting for the rest of your life."

17. "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful."

18. "Small changes eventually add up to huge results."

19. "Choose happy today."

20. "Be the best version of yourself."

I know, most of these are totally tattoo worthy, no need to quote me when you're getting inked up next week. In all seriousness, we all need some quotes to keep us strong sometimes, and these have helped me remember that life is 100% worth living.

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

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

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
