Below are ten Mariah Carey songs to help get you through that post-breakup heartbreak.

1. We Belong Together

When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby please cause we belong together


At the end of every breakup, no matter if it ended on good or bad terms, you'll feel the desire to return to your ex and try to work things out. This is one everyone knows, and these lyrics could not relate more. Really, I could put the entire song...

2. Don't Forget About Us

Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy, you'll always be in my heart andI can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us.



Still, you cant shake them off. You don't want them to forget about the good memories y'all had together.

3. I Don't Wanna Cry

Nothing in the world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
Though I've given you my heart and soul (Given you my heart and soul)
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause baby, I don't want to cry

Now you're finally starting to realize that the ship has sailed.

4. The Art of Letting Go

Evidently your words were merely lies
Reverberating in my ears
And the echo won’t subside
There’s deep deep loss of hope
And the anger burns in me
I hope you don’t get no ideas ’bout re-uniting baby
‘cause that’s the last thing I truly need

Letting go ain’t easy
Oh, it’s just exceedingly hurtful
‘cause somebody you used to know
It’s flinging your world around
And they watch, as you’re falling down, down, down

The song's title speaks for itself. Letting go is truly one of the hardest things to do...

5. You Don't Know What To Do

You need to go
Don't look so surprise
'Cause we had love
That will be immortalized
Say you need me now
So alone without me now
But our little romance is through
Because basically boy, you
You just don't know what to do oh

You think you're finally starting to get over your ex then BOOM, they try to come back into your life! But oh boy, little do they know that it's too late...

6. Shake It Off

'Cause the loving ain't the same
And you keep on playing games
Like you know I'm here to stay

Gotta make that move
Find somebody who
Appreciates all the love I give
Boy I gotta shake it off
Gotta do what's best for me
Baby and that means I gotta
Shake you off

It feels like a ton of weight has been lifted off of your shoulders. YES, finally!

7. I Wish You Well

I know you've been there for me plenty
Maybe still got love for me
But let him without sin cast the first stone brethren
But who remains standing then
Not you not I see Philippians 4:9
(Put it into practice)

Do good to those who curse you
Pray for those who mistreat you

I wish you well


They may have bruised and misused you, but that's okay! You wish them best of luck in the future.

8. It's a Wrap

Put all of your shit in the elevator
It's going down like a denominator
Trying to keep holding on, holding on
Boy, let me go
You gonna wake my neighbors, get away from my door
That was your last shot, you ain't coming back
It's the Martini I mean it baby
it's wrap

It's official, you're done with them. They can get their shit and get out.

9. Someday

Maybe now you just can't conceive
That there will ever come a time when you're cold and lonely
Baby, how could you ever believe
That another could replace me, the one and only
But when your down in your time of need
And you're thinking that you might be coming back to own me
Just think again 'cause
I won't need your love anymore!

Someday ooh someday
The one you gave away will be the only one you're wishing for
Someday hey hey
Boy you're gonna pay 'cause baby I'm the one who's keeping score

You're finally done with them and you know that'll regret that the mistreated you. However, once they figure it out, it'll be too late! HAHA, shame on them.

10. It's Like That

'Cause it's my night
No stress, no fights
I'm leavin' it all behind
No tears, no time to cry
Just makin' the most of life
Everybody is livin' it up
All the fellas keep lookin' at us ('Cause)
Me and my girls on the floor like what
While the DJ keeps on spinnin' the cut
It's like that y'all (That y'all), that y'all (That y'all)

d

You're now officially moved on to greater things! You've found someone who treats you like the King/Queen you are. Life could not be better. You're living your best life.

11. The One

Finally found somebody
That could be the one
But I promised myself
That I wouldn't give in to love
And I'm scared
And I'm nervous
Don't want to be hurt anymore
This is bad
Cause I know that you're the one


You've finally moved on and found someone! But you're nervous and don't want to get hurt again. but you eventually realize that you're ready to take the risk. I'll just let the lyrics do the talking...

Be like Mariah and be fabulous, DAHHHLING!

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.

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.
