The 5 Stages Of Grief You Went Through Listening To Adele's New Single

'Hello'

The 5 Stages Of Grief You Went Through Listening To Adele's New Single

So Adele released a new single…

Stage One: Denial

This is not happening. This is NOT happening. Adele did not just release this song right here, right now. She’s supposed to still be “chasing pavements.” Adele has like a kid and a family. She cannot relate to MY love life anymore. This song is not going to be a thing.

After listening to the first 30 seconds of the song…

Stage Two: Anger

You already “set fire to the rain” and “rolled in the deep” and now you think you can just say “hello” and literally break my heart? Literally what the hell Adele? What the hell? Who do you think you are? You think you can just come out with a single like that that literally speaks to the depths of my soul? I’m done with you. DONE.

After hearing the first chorus…

Stage Three: Bargaining

Why does this have to be so perfect? Why is her voice like a god? Please Adele spare us all. No more music like this. No more. I know that “rumor has it” that you are coming out with a new album. And I beg you please do not let every song be like this one. I won’t be able to handle it. I’m begging you Adele. Don’t do this to me.

After one minute thirty seconds into the song...

Stage Four: Depression

There will NEVER be “someone like you.” *Hysterical crying* More hysterical crying* Wheezing* More Crying* My eyes are literally bloodshot and my nose is dripping. I am in the middle of Starbucks currently sobbing like I’ve just lost my lover forever. Maybe it’s because I HAVE and Adele you just brought all the emotions right back.

After an hour of listening to “Hello” on repeat…

Stage Five: Acceptance

“I won’t let you close enough to hurt me.” It’s okay. I like it here on “the other side.” On the outside. I’m really okay. This is real life. Stuff happens. But I got this. I can do this. This will be MY song. And I will sing it at the top of my lungs every time I hear it. And that person will know when I post a snap on my story of me singing it that I am OKAY. I like it here on the “other side” without them. Or that at least that’s what I hope they think.

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.
