20 Quotes To Get You Through Finals
odyssey.com

Every student knows that finals are the worst time of the year. Everyone is stressed and studying like crazy. I hope these quotes will help ease that stress and make finals week a little better!

1. "Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul." -Billy Madison

Just know that no matter how bad you do on your finals, you can never do as bad as Billy Madison.

2.

Michael Scott is full of wisdom. Remember that he wants you to try on your finals and not miss an opportunity to take a shot.

3.

Keep up the hard work, eventually, it'll pay off!

4. “If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.” – Albert Einstein

Study until you know that material like the back of your hand!

5.

Take on the attitude of Leslie Knope. Be as confident as a woman who feels as confident as a white, male US Senator.

6.“Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” – Theodore Roosevelt

Remember that grades do not define you. Your best is the most you can do. If your best is a B- then be proud of that B-!!

7.


Remember that a small amount of knowledge about a lot of things is better than a large amount of knowledge about one thing.

8.

Like Kim K. suggests, just let it go. But you should probably still study.

9. “A moment of patience in a moment of anger prevents a thousand moments of regret.” – Chinese proverb

Keep this in mind when you have been studying for 5 hours and want to flip a table.

10. “Failure defeats losers, failure inspires winners.”- Robert T. Kiyosaki

For when you need a quote to text your mom after you fail a final. Remember, you'll be a winner next time.

11.

It doesn't matter if you're bad now, you'll be better later. After you study.

12.

Never forget that you are awesome!!!

13.

Be this excited and determined to write your final essay. But don't be like Spongebob and wait until 10 minutes before your class to actually write it.

14. “One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat.” -Napoleon Hill

Don't quit just because you don't understand it now. Persevere!

15. I strongly believe if you work hard, whatever you want, it will come to you. I know that’s easier said than done, but keep trying. –Beyoncé

Keep on truckin'. Your hard work will pay off.

16. “I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can’t accept not trying.” – Michael Jordan

You can never fail as long as you try your best!

17.

Don't let yourself feel stupid. You are smart and know things. You are an impressive human being!

18.

You have to study hard to do well on finals. That's a given!

19. "There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.” - General Colin Powell

As you prepare for finals, remember to work hard and give your best effort. Don't worry if you don't do as well as expected. Again, grades do not define you!

20.

And remember: after you finish finals, you're free!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
