Whether you like to admit it or not, almost all of us are intrigued by the glamorous lives of today's hottest celebrities. Celebrity couples take that fascination to a whole new level, with two times the star power and usually two times the beauty to obsess over. We become obsessed with celebrity couples, giving them couple names and following every move they make, especially when they find a happily ever after and produce even more perfect celebrity babies. But as 2016 comes to a close, I can't help but notice that it has been a tragic year for us celebrity lovers. As someone who watches E! News and reads People magazine on a weekly basis, I have mourned the breakup of some of America's favorite couples, and would like to memorialize them in this article.

1. Cavin Harris and Taylor Swift

After a year spent as pop's reigning power couple, Swift and Harris broke up and seemingly deleted each other from their lives. These two had fans gushing over their subtly adorable Instagrams and tweets to each other, but hit a rough patch and broke up over the summer. But fans were even more shocked by Swift's quick rebound with Tom Hiddleston just weeks later, and then by the scandal over Harris' song that Swift apparently wrote. What's a celebrity breakup without some juicy drama?

2. Brooklyn Beckham and Chloe Grace Moretz

Although they're only teenagers, this young couple was the talk of Hollywood for a while during their whirlwind romance. The two gorgeous rising stars were all over each other's social media, but eventually split when Chloe claimed she was sick of being referred to as his girlfriend rather than the star actress that she truly is.

3. the Weeknd and Bella Hadid

These two spent an amazing year and a half as Hollywood's freshest, chillest couple, but have recently split due to their conflicting schedules. To me, this is the saddest type of breakup, as the two said they still "have a great deal of love for one another." Excuse me while I cry for the Weeknd's hair and their nonexistent, potentially gorgeous children.

4. Wilmer Valderamma and Demi Lovato

The couple, who have caused controversy during their six-year romance due to their large age difference, split in the summer and released a statement saying they were better off as friends. While they were always pretty low-key as a couple, both Demi and the lovable Fez are fan favorites, and I was sad to see their relationship end.

5. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie

The infamous couple, who met on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith eleven years ago, called it quits after two years of marriage and five kids together, citing irreconcilable differences. This breakup rocked many fans to their core, since Brad and Angie have been such a symbol of true love and family for so long, defying the Hollywood standard of short relationships. RIP Brangelina, we love you.

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.
