To the girl who thinks she can't live without a boy, it can be done. Take it from a girl who has been single the whole 19 short years of my life. I've spent 19 years without a man by my side and I am still somehow alive and have managed to be happy. It makes me sad to see girls so upset after being broken up with. You got broken up with, that is not the same as you being broken. No matter the situation, it is his loss.

I promise, you are strong enough to handle it. It may take a while, and it might hurt like hell, but one day you'll wake up and you'll think about your self first rather than him. You'll be happy going on walks by yourself, or long drives, or shopping. If you absolutely can't fathom to be that alone all the time? There are tons of girls out there that won't break your heart and are much more fun to shop with. So if you think you can't live without him, you are wrong.

Every woman is strong and independent. We were created to fight for ourselves. That boy, has made you forget that. He may have been the best boyfriend that held your hand through every situation, which is completely great and what boys are supposed to do, but you forgot that while he was holding your hand, you were holding your own head high. He made life easier, but you can't just back down from a challenge if you are facing it on your own.

I'm not saying you always have to be alone, but just begin doing things on your own so you know you can. Somewhere along the road with him, you have forgotten that. I promise you, you will be okay by yourself. You are strong. You are beautiful. You are most importantly, independent and no boy can take that from you.

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.

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.
