It may be exactly what your life needed.

An Open Letter To The Girl With The Broken Heart
Cho Bird Okan

The feeling of being OK again is something you can’t even remember. You long for it, but the journey to get there again seems like it will never come. The gut wrenching heartbreak is too strong to let you feel anything but sorrow. You tell everyone you’re fine but you know that deep down you really aren’t. You dodge every place you use to go with him. You don’t have an appetite because you are so sick to your stomach, you can’t bear to eat anything. You walk a different path and peek around every corner just so you won’t run into him.

After that first heartbreak nothing will ever be the same. You question every decision and wonder if you will ever love again because after all this is the first time you’ve ever really known what it means to love.

It will be hard to truly love someone again because, before now, you didn’t know what it felt like to be broken. Everything was so wholesome before and you never thought that someone would come along and flip your life upside down because it all felt like all the pieces were coming together with him.

I hated it more than anything when other girls told me “everything will be OK.” How could everything be OK when my entire world felt like it was falling apart? I thought my friends telling me that it will be OK were crazy. I didn’t think they understood how much I had been hurt. But they understood exactly what I was feeling because the same look in their eyes and the whisper of their voice is the same one I have when I talk to the girl with the broken heart. I know that it’s awful, and that you feel like you will never recover, but you will. It may take weeks, or months, or maybe even years but in the end you will come out so much stronger.

Your heartbreak may be exactly what your life needed. It may make you take a leap of faith or it may make you find exactly who you are. No matter what happens I promise you that everything will be OK. The sun will eventually shine again and you will find someone who will never break your heart like he did. So have faith and wait for that special someone because in the end every tear and every heartbreak will be worth it for the man of your dreams. He will sweep you off your feet like none other and show you that you deserve the world.

Hold your head up and know that you will be treated like a queen one day because you are the daughter of the king of kings

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
