There are thousands of students racing past you, no one is paying attention to anything but their phones, and yet you are still checking out your outfit in the mirror every time you pass a reflective surface. However, although you might think you have mastered the first day of school (I mean you've had fifteen of them, right?), there will always be something that goes awry. Here is a list of ten things that could go wrong the first day of junior year:

1. Is my shirt on backwards? Yep, my shirt has definitely been on backwards all day. 

2. "Welcome to History 204" Did he just say history? I most definitely need to be in American Lit. I need to leave. Is it too late? Well now it's awkward.      

3. Ooo, the guys on campus definitely stepped it up this year .... *trip* My life.  

4. It's the first day of class, who needs books? ... In class assignment? Wait what? Well there's my first 0. 

5. How did I miss 3 alarms?! I guess hobo is the look of the day.

6. Why does my shoe keep sticking to the ground? Nevermind, I don't want to know. 

7. Oh my gosh, I remember him. Don't look at me, don't look at me, don't look at me ... 

8. Oh hey! What's ... Just kidding, I don't know you. I just waved at a rando.  

9. Well ... my makeup matched my skin tone when I left the house. 

10. Going out tonight would probably be a bad idea, right? Nahhh.*miss 8 am the next morning*

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
