10 Signs That You're Not Over Him
Tumblr

There are many different forms of breakups, and just like being exposed to the outside for the first time, breakups are a part of our life that make us stronger, and more immune to the heartache of separation. However, the worst ones come with an inevitable dosage of bitterness, saltiness, and basically any opposite flavor of what you'd find in a pint of Ben & Jerry's ice cream. And as simple as ending things with your significant other sounds, it isn't always that easy, and those lingering feelings will bite you back when you least expect it. Here's how to tell if you're simply not over your ex.

1. You immediately look for him in any room.

Doesn't matter if you're at the gym, a party, or even in another state. You're always on the lookout for that familiar and oh so handsome face.

2. Suddenly, his Instagram turns into Tumblr.

You've been scrolling down and down on all of his pictures like they're on your Tumblr dashboard, and pretty soon you're headed into the 2012 section of his posts. If you could reblog each and every one of them, you so would.

3. The Snapchat Frenzy.

You Snapchat him every day, even though he may not always answer. But maybe today will be different! And there's always tomorrow... and the next day...

4. You compare him to other guys.

No matter how many other guys you see, your thoughts always go back to him and those sea-green eyes and that perfectly sculpted jawline...maybe he has a long lost twin somewhere? A girl can only dream.

5. Your mouth moves on its own.

Enough said...literally.

6. You imagine impossible scenarios with the two of you in your head.

Hate to break it to you, but I doubt that the scenario of you two running into each other's arms on the beach and declaring your love for each other and kissing passionately will come true. Aim for France instead of the beach, it's more realistic...right?

7. You get angry when he's with another girl.

"What's that? He's laughing with her?! He's not allowed to laugh unless I'm there! Laughing together was our thing! How dare he!"

8. You constantly stare his way... and then quickly act like you weren't.

Nope, you didn't notice his new haircut at all. And you most certainly didn't notice his brand new leather jacket from Topman, size large, with studs around the collar, in the shade heather gray. Nope, not at all.

9. You ask about him all the time.

The classic "Have you talked to him lately?" and "Does he ever ask about me?" should be translated to "Tell me everything that he's done since I last saw him."

10. Adele is your new best friend.

At least you can say that you tried.

All in all, it's important to recognize the signs before a final diagnosis. And if things don't work out in the end, you'll always have two men that you can count on. Ben and Jerry.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
