Heartbreaks happen to just about everyone in their own lifetime. The first time you get your heartbroken is the worst and it can put you at your all-time low. You start to feel like you aren't good enough and you can become very depressed depending on the situation at hand and how deep the heartbreak is. I have found a couple ways to cope with heartbreaks and to relieve yourself of all the stress and depression. We all go through these tough, terrible times in our lives, but we all gotta get through it at some point. At times they are just unavoidable and just happen when you least expect them to happen, especially when you don't want them to. There are really no remedies that heal heartbreaks but I am here to give you some ways on how to cope with them and their side effects.

The main true way to cope with heartbreaks and to somehow get over them is to just give it time. Honestly, time heals all and is the main way to cope with heartbreaks in the right form. You may not like the outcome that giving time does and the outcome of the situation that brought out the heartbreak, but things happen for a reason. If it was meant to be it will find its own way. Giving time to the situation will give you some relaxation and stress-free thinking to process all that has occurred. You need time to mend that broken heart. There are some studies that show that a broken heart can lead to death. No one wants to end there life over something that just couldn't work out.

Another way to cope with a heartbreak would be to exercise. Playing sports or even just going for a run can help. In doing so, this can set your mind at an easier pace and can help drain your mind, body, and soul of the heartache that keeps haunting your presence. Sweat off the stress and do your best. Nothing better does your mind justice than getting it back on track with doing something productive that does beneficial wonders to your own well being. Finally, by following these ways I have given to you, you can see some beneficial results that can help you feel a million times better instead of sulking. Also, by letting the depression just get you to the point where you feel you are not good enough or to the point where you feel like there isn't any point in living anymore.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
