6 Reminders From Hermione Granger To Students After Exams
HerCampus

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Final exams are finished and summertime is upon us. For those students who find the stresses of finals still fresh on their minds, here are six reminders to make you feel as clever as Hermionie Granger.

1. What's done is done.

The essays have all been written, the tests have been taken and the grades have been entered. It is now too late to study more or to hope for some more participation points. It's time to sit back and relax, knowing you did the best you could.

2. You are more than your GPA.

The letter grades you will receive on your exams are not a definition of your worth as a person. Keep your head up and don't forget to smile.

3. Don't let school get in the way of a good education.

This wonderful advice was passed along to me from my roommate. It's something I remind myself of every day. When you choose to focus only on schoolwork, you risk missing out on so many opportunities. During this break from school, don't take a break from an education. Adventure is out there!

4. It is never too early to start preparing.

Was your Anatomy 1 class so difficult that it has left you dreading the Anatomy 2 to come next semester? No worries! Summertime provides you with some much needed free time that can be used to review some material and get prepared for next semester! All that reading will have you sounding like Granger in no time.

5. Take a deep breath.

Didn't do too well on your exams? That's okay! Shake it off and don't worry about what you can't control. Even Hermione had bad days.

6. It's summertime!

Time to relax, earn some much needed cash and recover from the stress of exams week. Now that's magical!

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. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

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.
