The Ultimate Breakup Playlist

For every emotion that breaks free with heartbreak.

The Ultimate Breakup Playlist
Otisele

I have been through a number of breakups in my time on this earth and I have always found that what always helps me through is good music. Music has a way to say what I didn't even think I was thinking in a way that sounds like I wrote it myself. When going through a breakup it's important to have this because often times you're not sure how to feel about it. There's the feeling of extreme loss and sadness towards the situation. There's the feeling of anger towards the person who let you down, or betrayed you, or whatever the situation may be. There are even the feelings of hopefulness towards your future and goodwill toward this person you've shared part of your life and soul with. I've attempted to make a playlist that covers all the emotions one can possibly feel in a breakup that I hope can help others, like me, who don't know where to turn when their world turns upside down.

Click here to listen to entire playlist.

Slow Dancing in a Burning Room -John Mayer

So What - P!nk

Not in that way - Sam Smith

Merry Happy - Kate Nash

Breakeven - The Script (I suggest the Colbie Caillat version)

Before He Cheats - Carrie Underwood

There's a Fine, Fine Line - Avenue Q

F*ck You - Lily Allen

Someone New - BANKS

Not Over You - Gavin DeGraw

I'm Still Hurting - The Last Five Years

Waiting - Alice Boman

Send My Love(To Your New Lover) - Adele

I can't make you love me - Bon Iver

Shout Out to My Ex - Little Mix

You could be Happy - Snow Patrol

I hope there is a song on here that describes whatever you are feeling. I attempted to touch on every possible emotion. If you want more material I suggest looking into the music of Adele, Taylor Swift, Amy Winehouse, and P!nk. I hope I have helped with any broken hearts out there.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
