Personally, I’ve had a pretty hard week. In the midst of all of the midterms, essays, and articles due this week, I haven’t really had much time for anything else. On top of that, the week we get back from spring break, I have two papers due and a midterm to take. This is a list of quotes I wish I had during all of this.
