The Students' Lifestyle

I've never been through a break-up. I've manage to avoid getting my heart broken by dodging a lot of bullets. Although I don't know what it's like to have a boyfriend break my heart, I have had friends and family members tear my heart to pieces. Maybe that's my heartbreak. Either way, there are rarely songs written about a friendship that ended or a family members to leave you.

 If I ever fall in love with a guy and the relationship is really strong, but then suddenly he leaves me, I've prepared the perfect songs to listen to while I'm going through the break-up. Some say Adele or Sam Smith are the ideal artists to listen to during a heartbreak, and I agree, but no singer can really release the hurt and anger of a heartbreak quite like Miami rapper Trina. How do I even start? Trina is everything! She is the go to artist who says exactly how you feel when you're going through a heartbreak. She sounds angry in her songs, but that's what so special about her music, her anger is our anger.  I put together a playlist of Trina's songs that will help me in the future if I ever go through a heartbreak.

So you're single. That doesn't mean the world comes to a complete end. You should always look your best even if you don't have a man. You may not find one guy that can come close to being a boyfriend, but that doesn't mean you should stop wearing cute clothes. Try it! One day next week put on make-up, fix your hair, don't dress like you feel. If you're feeling bad, the worst thing you can do is wear clothes to describe your mood. Wear something cute, something that says I don't need a man to notice me to define my beauty.

 I'm sure you're a pretty girl, but no one will notice it if you're looking down. Seriously, how many of us would buy a flower that's facing downward? The same goes for you. Take baby steps if you're not confident yet. Wear pretty lip gloss, or fancy nail polish, just don't give up on yourself. Never think for a second that you're not pretty because you really are!

 You may need to clean your own mirror to see your beauty. For heaven sake please don't compare your looks to another girl's beauty. You're beautiful too, if only you knew. Stop wasting time complaining about what you don't like, because that's the worst thing you can do. Smile while you still have teeth, and  fix your hair before it falls out when you get old. Live your life and make it the best!

I really do love being single. Waking up in my twin bed early every morning to the cold air conditioned room, and to see one person beside me. That one person is no one other than my roommate, who sleeps in her own twin bed. I begin each day listening to "Treasure" by Bruno Mars.  Oh! It's no wonder I'm still single, indeed. I like my own space, I can get "ugly" whenever I want. Not one guy can see those moments. Let's enjoy these moment shall we.

Single by choice.. Just not my choice

As much as I love being single, I have to admit I hate being single sometimes. All a girl wants is to hold hands with a good smelling guy. I have those days that  I'm so pessimistic about love and relationships, you better stay far away from me. So here's to the single gals! It's time to celebrate why we hate being single sometimes.

LR: Dara, Bom, Minzy, and CL. 2NE1 is back with their new comeback single!

Brandy's newest single" Let Me Go" samples the weird but lovely singer Lykke Li. Brandy is not the first singer to sample Swedish singer Lykke Li. Drake sampled her music in his song "Little Bit". The song is a head banger, but I don't see it topping any charts. I love Brandy either ways. The song is great, but not my personal favorite... maybe it has to grow on me.

Sometimes what we need and what we want can cause inner conflicts in our hearts. Many of us want a boyfriend or girlfriend, but are unsure if we need it. If you're single the advice you've heard too many times is to wait and your true love will find you. Waiting is the hardest thing to do because many of us grow impatient. It's like standing in a long line waiting to find the love of our life at the end, but some of us tend to stop waiting and walk away. Once we walk away, we may settle for what's in front of us. If that someone in front of us appears  nice, sweet, and thoughtful we may give them a chance. However, when their bad qualities start appearing we may turn away thinking how naive we were and become a bit scared to open our hearts again to someone new. Some of us may even become a bit jealous when we see other couples together or our friends finding love.  What to do when you're feeling a bit blue about being single?
