Death is never easy to deal with, whether the passing of the  loved one is something that slowly crept up or is sudden. In that moment, we feel utterly alone. Sometimes the only thing we have to turn to is music. Here are some songs to listen to in remembrance of loved ones that have passed on. READ MORE

Many girls (and almost every guy) were crushed when the 7th grade trend of wearing Solow’s and Hard Tail’s went out of style. For a long period of time, girls of all ages traded in their yoga pants for leggings, causing quite the controversy if leggings could actually be considered pants. Sorry leggings, but the hottest new workout-clothing designer Lululemon has resurrected your biggest competitor from a fashion-suicide related death.

At a big ten school filled with sports, parties and rigorous academics, it’s often hard to stop and slow down our pace to appreciate the small and undiscovered treasures that can be found on our campus.
 
Taking the time do discover these hidden treasures often leads you to great discoveries, such as Soma, a local coffee shop located at 322 E. Kirkwood Avenue.
 
Tucked away under the Laughing Planet Café, Soma is the perfect hide away if you want to enjoy a cup of coffee, a homemade baked good, or freshly made juice. Soma is vegan-friendly and their ingredients are local and organic.

Sitting in M119 class, which I am probably going to fail anyways because who am I kidding, it’s calculus, and I can’t concentrate knowing that another person in this class is my soul mate, I can just feel it. I don’t think Professor Hendrickson is going to be my Johnny Cash, so Prince Charming has to be sitting down around here somewhere.  READ MORE

It’s safe to say that for most of us at Indiana University, studying abroad is part of our college plan. But even with a study abroad plan in the works (or behind you), when Spring begins to peak through the clouds, the travel itch starts, and dreaming about an epic Euro-trip or an Australian adventure becomes a daily distraction when struggling through our oh-so-boring lectures. But planning a trip abroad can be scary, time consuming, and let's not forget--super expensive. Lucky for us, Her Campus has partnered with Contiki, the #1 travel company for young people, offering over 200 guided tours and pre-planned trips in 40+ countries, exclusively for 18-35-year-olds—all for amazingly low prices!...

Just because you’re single does not mean you should miss out on celebrating the important relationships in your life. READ MORE
