The Weeknd just released his new album "My Dear Melancholy," and it is fire. You can tell by listening to the first song "Call Out My Name" that his heart is aching, and who broke it. It's obvious that he has a lot of thoughts and feelings about his breakups. He shares those with everyone with this entire album. What he sings about is so relatable to most people, the ones who have had their heart broken by someone they truly care for. Here are just some of the notable lyrics that can resonate with some:

1. "You gave me comfort, but falling for you was my mistake" ("Call Out My Name")

We all find comfort in the people we are dating. Unfortunately, some of us get too comfortable and we give that person the complete ability to hurt us. We can't help it, relationships are about trusting the other person to not hurt you. But, when the relationship does not work out for whatever reason, we instantly regret for letting ourselves fall for that person in the first place.

2. "Guess I was just another pitstop 'til you made up your mind" ("Call Out My Name")

Some breakups are messier than others. That person left you to be with someone else, or they had you convinced they were down for the long run, but they didn't mean that. Whatever the situation may be, the person who didn't see the breakup coming will more than likely feel like a "pitstop" or a temporary fling until the other person figured out what they really wanted.

3. "Once you put your pride aside, you can notify me" ("Try Me")

If you never got closure with your breakup, a part of you will wish for that. You will wish for that person to regret their actions, swallow their pride, and reach out to you. Some of us may never get that, but we can still wish for it.

4. "And even though you put my life through hell, I can't seem to forget 'bout you" ("Wasted Times")

Wouldn't life be so much easier if we're able to completely forget about the people who have hurt us? Forget about the pain they caused us, the tears we shed over them, and the self-doubt we put on ourselves. . . Time is really the only thing that can help with that process.

5. "When I shine, it won't matter" ("I Was Never There")

The immediate time after any break up will take some adjusting to. You are used to telling that person everything - your accomplishments and failures. When that person is not there anymore to console in, you begin to miss that. You may even begin to wonder "what is the point of 'shining' if the person you want to notice doesn't care?"

6. "We said our last goodbyes" ("Privilege")

The sad part about relationships, and life, in general, is that there comes a time when we say our last goodbyes. Willingly or not, saying goodbye to someone who you care for is going to hurt. Knowing that it's your last goodbye will hurt even more.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
