15 Quotes for the Struggling College Student
US News

While being a college student is pretty great, I have found that it is also just as stressful. We're half-way through the semester, and if someone doesn't have three papers and a test to study for in every class, then they are lucky. With midterms coming up and fall break just beyond our reach, it can be hard to find the motivation we need to successfully get through the week without having a mental breakdown. So I have searched the deep and dark depths of Pinterest to bring to all you struggling college students some quotes to remember when it fees like you just can't make it to Friday.

1. "The one who falls and gets up is so much stronger than the one who never fell."

2. "Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will."
- Karim Seddiki

3. "If you were able to believe in Santa Claus for like 8 years, you can believe in yourself for like 5 minutes."

4. "You did not wake up today to be mediocre."

5. "A diamond is a chunk of coal that did well under pressure."
- Henry Kissinger

6. "Once upon a time you were a little kid with big dreams that you promised you'd make real one day. Don't disappoint yourself."

7. "Fate whispers to the warrior 'You cannot withstand the storm' and the warrior whispers back, 'I am the storm.'"

8. "No matter how you feel, get up, dress up, show up, and never give up."

9. "The struggle you're in today, is developing the strength you need for tomorrow."

10. "I'm not telling you it's going to be easy. I'm telling you it's going to be worth it."
- Art Williams

11. "The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem. Do you understand?"
- Captain Jack Sparrow.

12. "Be strong, you never know who you are inspiring.

13. "Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time."
- Thomas Edison

14. "Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle."
- Christian D. Larson

15. "I just realized this week that I can not do it all, so I will do what I can fabulously."
- Clinton Kelly

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
