Throughout life, we cry. Tears of joy are more favorable; However, a sad cry is sometimes needed. It's nice to cry it out sometimes. I made this collection for people who want new ways to express how they feel and maybe let out a little bit. It's incredibly important. I encourage you to seek help if it is an emergency. There is help out there for any issue you're facing. These songs have been used by many, including myself, to relate and helped others cope with their problems.

This list has brought together many different artists from various genres. Some songs contain sensitive subjects, so listen at your own discretion. Hopefully, you'll get lost in the music enough to get through whatever is troubling you. Maybe, you'll have a new sad jam for the next disaster (fingers crossed that doesn't happen soon). So without further ado, here is a collection of the finest devastating tunes to get your optical waterfalls bawling.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
