The days of the semester are dwindling down, and finding the motivation to make it through each day is getting more difficult by the second. The following are some tips that will help you make it through each day up until your last final. If you can follow these tips, you'll have the most successful end of the semester ever to be had by a student. These tips will help motivate you, and you will find yourself having the easiest time getting through these last few days of the year.

1. Start your morning off right

When your alarm goes off in the morning, the best things to do are to hit "snooze," try not to cry, and then cry a lot. Then, gather yourself because you are a capable functioning adult, but continue to hit "snooze" 840,927,473 times too many. Make sure you get out of bed with just enough time to throw on a pair of sweats and some Crocs and make it to class.

2. Be successful in the classroom

Most people use coffee to wake them up during the day, but that option is completely up to how broke you are. When you are sitting in class, really focus on not crying as well as trying to write everything down into your notes before the teacher changes the slide.

3. Get at least thirty minutes of exercise every day

Who am I kidding? You're going to try to take the stairs to your class on the fourth floor and die after the first five steps.

4. Get all of your homework done in a timely and efficient manner

The reality of it is that you're going to get out of class and take a very long nap and binge on three seasons of your favorite Netflix show. You will then panic at the fact that it is now 7:23 p.m. and you have not started a single assignment. Now is another time for you to try not to cry, but it's OK if you do. After crying, you will effectively throw a pile of absolute bull feces onto all of your assignments and call it "good."

5. Prioritize

In other words, live by the motto: "C's get degrees."

6. Remember that, unlike you in all of your classes, "this too shall pass"

Your stress will eventually pass, but as for your classes, I can't make any promises. It is now the time to start asking your teachers for extra credit and work on your begging skills so that your teachers will bump that 58 percent up to a 91 percent.

7. Get plenty of rest

"I'm going to go to bed by 10 p.m. tonight."

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.
