20 Quotes We All Need To Hear This Finals Season
Emma Kindsvatter

As a struggling college student, I've found that sometimes running to my dorm and breaking down after class is the best way to get rid of the stress school can bring. Once I've used about three boxes of tissues and talked to my Mom for an hour, it's about time I bounce back like the strong woman I am. I find that quotes are some of the best ways to make myself feel better. These are just a few quotes I've found over the years that I live by.

1. "Remember who you were before the world told you who to be."

2. "Every sixty seconds you spend being upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back."

3. "Sometimes, you just need a break. In a beautiful place, alone. To figure everything out."

4. "Just because my path is different doesn't mean I'm lost."

5. "Do no harm, but take no shit."

6. "You're not sensitive, they're just being a dick to you."

7. "Stop overthinking, just DO."

8. "Today, I will not stress over things I cannot control." 

9. "It always seems impossible until it is done."

10. "EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON."

11. "Nothing can dim the light that shines from within."

12. "Make it happen. Shock everyone."

13. "Life is tough, but you're tougher."

14. "Never confuse a single defeat with a final."

15. "Don't ever feel guilty for doing what's best for you." 

16. "If you wait until you're ready, you'll be waiting for the rest of your life."

17. "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful."

18. "Small changes eventually add up to huge results."

19. "Choose happy today."

20. "Be the best version of yourself."

I know, most of these are totally tattoo worthy, no need to quote me when you're getting inked up next week. In all seriousness, we all need some quotes to keep us strong sometimes, and these have helped me remember that life is 100% worth living.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
