20 Songs Guaranteed To Help You Get Over A Breakup
playbuzz

Breakups are the worst. Whether it was a few months or a few years, any relationship becomes a part of your life and losing someone that matters to you feels like you've been punched in the stomach and run over by a truck. But now that the relationship you once cherished is dead, it's time to mourn that loss by grabbing some wine, some tissues and a good friend (don't be alone when you're hurting-reach out). Curl up on the sofa or have a dance party in your room and start to heal.

It may feel like the end of the world, but I promise, it gets better.

1. Everything Sucks (When You're Gone) by MxPx.

You need to acknowledge the pain. You can't move on if you sweep all the hurting under the rug and never deal with it. Let yourself have a good cathartic cry; it will hurt worse before it gets better.

2. Because of You by Kelly Clarkson.


3. The Older I Get by Skillet.


4. I hate U, I love U by Gnash.


5.Un-Break My Heart by Toni Braxton.


6. All Time Low by The Wanted.


7. I Write Sins Not Tragedies by Panic! At The Disco.

8. Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood.


Whether you were the dumper or the dumpee, there's a reason you broke up. You may fixate on the wonderful memories you shared but don't forget why the two of you decided to call it quits.

9. I Knew You Were Trouble by Taylor Swift.


10. One Last Time by Ariana Grande.


Don't you dare call them. You may want answers or you think one last night would fix all your problems...it won't. It'll just hurt more when you eventually realize you're done for good.

11. It's Not Me It's You by Skillet.

12. Too Many Fish by Karmin.

13. Gives You Hell by The All-American Rejects.


14. Fight Song by Rachel Platten.


15. What The Hell by Avril Lavigne.


16. I Don't Fuck With You by Big Sean.


17. Awake and Alive by Skillet.


18. I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor.


19. I Wanna Dance With Somebody by Whitney Houston.


You are strong and you deserve someone who will love and respect you. There is no room in your life for people that try to hold you down.

20. Survivor by Destiny's Child.


If you or a loved one are struggling with depression or suicidal ideation following a breakup don't be afraid to seek help!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
