Ariana Grande has recently been in the news more than ever before. Not only did her ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller, overdose last month but her engagement with Pete Davidson was called off, and she released a new hit titled "Thank U, Next." All of this attention from the media, especially in light of these events, is terrifying. However, Ariana has held true to herself and has drawn strength from herself in these hard times, learning from them and teaching others to do the same.

1. Her reaction to the Manchester bombings at her concert in 2017

"broken.
from the bottom of my heart, i am so so sorry. i don't have words." -Ariana's tweet after the attack

It would be easy to feel guilty for hosting the show where 22 people ended up dead after the bombing. However, Ariana stayed strong and did everything she could to support survivors and loved ones of those who passed. She visited those injured in the attack when they were at the hospital, and she met family members of those who passed.

2. Her response to her ex-boyfriend's death

"i adored you from the day i met you when i was nineteen and i always will. i can't believe you aren't here anymore. i really can't wrap my head around it. we talked about this. so many times. i'm so mad, i'm so sad i don't know what to do. you were my dearest friend. for so long. above anything else. i'm so sorry i couldn't fix or take your pain away. i really wanted to. the kindest, sweetest soul with demons he never deserved. i hope you're okay now. rest." -Ariana on Instagram

Several people lashed out at Ariana Grande, blaming her for Mac Miller's death, but she disabled her comments to block the hate and did not stoop down to their level as she grieved and processed in a healthy way.

3. The way she approaches her breakups

Many music artists use their songs to get back at their exes or call them out in some way. Ariana, on the other hand, acknowledges everything she has learned from her exes and thanks them in her new song written after she and Pete Davidson called off their engagement.

4. Her involvement in empowering campaigns

5. She has some empowering lyrics in her songs as well

"I only wanna die alive / Never by the hands of a broken heart / Don't wanna hear ya lie tonight / Now that I've become who I really am." -"Break Free"

"The girl you see in photographs, is only / A part of the one I am, don't judge me / 'Cause that's not reality and all I can be / Is in love with who I'm becoming." -"You Don't Know Me"

"Popular, I know about popular / And all that you have to do is be true to you / That's all you ever need to know." -"Popular Song"

6. She is an activist for animal rights

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.
