No one really can prepare you for when you get your heart broken.

You can try and do everything in your power to prevent it, but sometimes the person you're with can throw the entire relationship completely off course. In the end, you're the one that is left to pick up the pieces.

The process is all about time and this is something that personally throws me off when I am going through the heartbreak.

The cheesy saying "time heals all wounds" is true, but I despise it completely. I want to feel better right away, I am tired of lying down in my bed drowning in my own tears over something that I couldn't even avoid myself. While I know deep down it wasn't my fault that my significant other decided to put me through this, I can't help but to always think about what if I did things differently. The fact that I put my all into the relationship I am in and somehow still get crushed is something that I will never understand. Maybe I'm not supposed to understand it and everything does happen for a reason, but that doesn't stop it from hurting any less.

You'll probably hear it from all your friends and family, the famous lines, "you deserve nothing but the best" or "they weren't the one for you anyway". You probably just want to tell them all to shut up and leave you alone and although you know that they are just trying to do everything in their power to bring your spirits back up, you don't want to be hearing any of it. If it's a true and intense heartbreak you're going through, it is most likely that you were madly in love with this person and had nothing but good intentions being with them and for them to break your heart so easily is more than hurtful.

In the beginning, the most difficult steps to take are going about your daily tasks that you need to take care of. Taking care of yourself and the responsibilites that you have are a priority. Although it might be nice to just stayed curled up in your bed and sleep for 14 hours straight, you still gave to go on with your life. This is where distracting yourself comes into play and it is extremely helpful in dealing with your heartbreak. When you're busy and keeping yourself occupied, it takes your mind off of all the different things that may be making you sad. It also gives you time to focus on more important things, such as bettering yourself. For example, try focusing on school even if it's the last thing that you want to be on your mind. I know it may be difficult because you are going through a rough patch, but you deserve to be putting effort into bettering yourself instead of trying to focus on all of the negativity that the heartbreak brought into your life.

Heartbreaks are far from easy to deal with, trust me.

When you put your heart and effort into someone else and in the end they proved to be selfish and decided to wreck you in the process, it's hard to take all of that in. Yet, take it as a learning experience that the next time you get in a relationship with someone, you watch out for the warning signs. Although you can't avoid another heartbreak 100%, going through this one just made you stronger.

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.

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.
