When I woke up on the morning of August 7th, I was alerted to a news story on my phone. Like the nosy millennial I am, I needed to know what was going on. I was not prepared for what I saw next.

The split of Anna Faris and Chris Pratt was devastating. They were seen as a power couple and honestly, the cutest pair ever. They seemed to be soulmates, from how they met to how they fell in love. We're used to Hollywood breakups, but this one really took the cake. Fans all over the internet spoke out about how they felt and how heartbroken they were for the couple.

I saw my fair share of things that were sweet and not so sweet about the couple and their decision to split. So, that inspired me to write this article on how to cope with the fact that our favorite power couple is splitting up.


1. Remember The Good Things

It's common when a tragedy happens to thinks about the worst and what's going to happen next. In this case, let's just all remember the cute moments that these two shared with each other, the moments that they allowed us to see. The stories they told the world about their relationship, how they met, and their love for bug collections. Those memories won't ever leave them or us.


2. Don't Let This Hinder Your View On Love


When looking around at other people's reactions, I saw that a lot of people were mostly upset because they had been the ideal image of "love knows no bounds". This cute couple did a lot of adorable and mushy things that we adored, and we often look to celebrities for our views on a lot of things, love being one of them.

But don't forget: There are still other power couples out there who are just as cute as Anna Faris and Chris Pratt. We have been blessed with Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi, and Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds! But most of all, look at your own life and search for more meaningful relationships that surround you.


3. Don't Blame Other Celebrities


In lieu of everything going on, there have been cropping ups of rumors that Jennifer Lawerence caused the split due to both her and Chris' time spent working on the movie "Passengers". Now, while I myself am not a fan at all of Jennifer Lawerence (which is a whole other article waiting to happen), I'm not going to blame her. We know nothing that's going on in their lives, nor do we have the right to know. We are lucky enough that celebrities let us into their lives at all, especially the special and intimate parts. We don't know anything for sure right now, and there's no room for blaming.


4. Let Them Make Their Own Decisions


While also going through Facebook feeds and people's reactions, there were a lot of negative things said about them such as:

"Hollywood marriage is a joke! If you don't know the meaning of 'Till death do us part,' don't get married!"

"You f***** separate after giving birth to child, what would be impact on child personality??? Use your brain before marriage and before giving birth to baby!"

Or perhaps my personal favorite: "Who's cheating, Anna or Chris?"

This is AWFUL! This time is stressful, and they don't need your advice or negative input. Sometimes people seperate because they find out they're not right for each other, and it's awful that people jump to one or the other spouse cheating. Either leave them alone or kindly support them through this.


5. Just Know Everything Is Going To Be Okay


Life goes on. Their relationship is out of our control. It'll hurt, but it'll go away. This isn't the end of the world. People break up and split all the time, and that's the sad reality. But that gives us time to be thankful for the people and relationships that we have in our own lives. The world still spins even if it feels as if time has stopped.

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.
