The last few weeks of the semester are upon us, which means extra stress, less sleep, and copious amounts of coffee. There is so much to get done between now, and the end of the semester. When I am struggling to get through school, I end up on Pinterest, trying to maintain sanity. This past week I was scrolling and found some quotes that have motivated me to keep pushing forward.
We all need a little motivation to get us through our days.
