If You Have A Broken Heart, Know That You're Not Alone

One of the hardest things in life is letting go of something you thought was real.

You just lost them, the person you thought was your everything.

The one person you wanted to hold forever and always.

They're gone, but it is okay, life goes on.

It was another breakup. Listen, it is okay, you will get through this. Yes, of course, all breakups are hard to get over for one or both in the relationship. Yes, you will miss that person a lot. Yes, you will think of all the times you guys spent together, and the memories will fill up in your head to where you can't think of anything else.

Hear me out. I have had my fair share of breakups, all of them ending in tears and me locking myself away from happiness. Do not do what I did.

But you have to keep your head up, love yourself, and live the life you want to live. Life goes on. Breakups suck but so does hating everything afterward and shutting yourself out from everything. There are so many fish in the sea that you haven't even met yet because you are in high school or college or just haven't found the one. After you graduate from either or move on to something new, life will give you paths to choose from. You may choose the wrong one at first, but in the end, you could figure out that it was the right path after all. You will learn new things and meet new people.

But for now, be yourself, live life, and enjoy every minute of it. Don't let a breakup hurt you enough to ruin the way you view your existence in the world.

"Life is worth living, so live it every day."

From,

Someone who was once in your shoes.

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.
