One of the hardest things in life is letting go of something you thought was real.

You just lost them, the person you thought was your everything.

The one person you wanted to hold forever and always.

They're gone, but it is okay, life goes on.

It was another breakup. Listen, it is okay, you will get through this. Yes, of course, all breakups are hard to get over for one or both in the relationship. Yes, you will miss that person a lot. Yes, you will think of all the times you guys spent together, and the memories will fill up in your head to where you can't think of anything else.

Hear me out. I have had my fair share of breakups, all of them ending in tears and me locking myself away from happiness. Do not do what I did.

But you have to keep your head up, love yourself, and live the life you want to live. Life goes on. Breakups suck but so does hating everything afterward and shutting yourself out from everything. There are so many fish in the sea that you haven't even met yet because you are in high school or college or just haven't found the one. After you graduate from either or move on to something new, life will give you paths to choose from. You may choose the wrong one at first, but in the end, you could figure out that it was the right path after all. You will learn new things and meet new people.

But for now, be yourself, live life, and enjoy every minute of it. Don't let a breakup hurt you enough to ruin the way you view your existence in the world.

"Life is worth living, so live it every day."

From,

Someone who was once in your shoes.

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.
