20 Quotes We All Need To Hear This Finals Season
Emma Kindsvatter

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.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
