As the end of the semester draws nearer, stress levels are rising higher. Fortunately, the sophomore season of Tina Fey's hilarious show, "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" just hit Netflix, giving college students the perfect way to blow off steam between projects, exams and essays.
Kimmy's drive, zest for life, and positivity in even the most dire situations make her the perfect role model for any college student. In honor of the second season of this hilarious show, here is a list of quotes to keep you motivated until the end of the semester:
1.
Fake it until you make it. Studies have shown that forcing a smile can actually help to reduce stress.
2. "Just take it 10 seconds at a time and everything will be OK."
You can handle this. It's all about small steps.
3.
4. "I don't like giving up on stuff. I still want Nickelodeon to take over my school."
Channel your inner Kimmy. Don't give up! Better times are coming!
5.
6. "You're OK. You're OK. You are a person."
Between all-nighters, approaching deadlines, and the stress of the close of each semester, it can be easy to feel a little less than human. Remember that you are a person, you are all right, and that you can do amazing things.
7.
"...or beef jerky in a ballgown."
8. "Women can be anything these days."
Unlike the women of the past, there's nothing holding you back from reaching your true potential. You can do it!
9.
So take each day as it comes and stay positive!
10. "I still believe the world is good. That bunnies are nice and snakes are mean. That one day Sandra Bullock will find someone who deserves her."
11.
You are more than your accomplishments. Trust that you have the strength and the tenacity to keep going. You've got this.
12. "We’re not garbage. We’re human beings. I have to get my life back. Everyone will look at me like I’m a victim and that’s not what I am.”
Bonus:
When things get really rough...
(Yelling this at 4:00 a.m. after three days withoutsleep actually does make you feel better. Not that I've done it...)
