12 Undeniable Reasons To Love Rihanna
Rihanna

Robyn Rihanna Fenty, simply known as Rihanna to many and known as the most beautiful person in the world to me, just celebrated her 28th birthday recently. An amazing artist and fashion icon, she inspires so many people to be who they are and not care what others think. Some people bash her for various reasons and all of them stem from jealousy; c'mon, just look at her! Try to find a flaw because I can't, and if you think you can you're wrong and I don't like you.

1. She managed to find success even though her childhood was plagued by her dad's cocaine and alcohol addiction.

It tore her family apart, but she still loves them more than anything. Rihanna is all about the three F's: family, friends and fans.

2. She was an army cadet during her high school/teenage years and Shontelle, known for her hits "T-Shirt" and "Impossible," was her drill sergeant.

No, it's not just from the movie Battleship, that's her on the right. How much more badass can she get honestly? Keep reading and you'll see.

3. The whole reason she's famous (and thank God for that), her music career.

It started with her debut hit single “Pon de Replay” in 2005, and then she blew up, even though nobody understood what she was saying because it was Barbadian language, broken English. Her music isn’t simply pop or hip-hop, it has a reggae twist due to her background and it’s unique. Who else can go from emotional songs like “Unfaithful” and “We All Want Love” to “B*tch Better Have My Money?”

4. She doesn't care what you think.


5. Her tattoos.

She has 21 tattoos and they are all perfect for her. By far the best one is her hand tattoo.

6. Have you seen her in the infamous all crystal Swarovski dress?

Or her outfit/costume at the Barbados Carnival for Kadooment Day?

No caption necessary. See for yourself.

7. She’s one of the few people who can pull off double denim.

This is only one outfit and she can pull them all off, trust me.

8. She can also pull off any hairstyle and color.

Whether it’s a pixie, short with bangs, long and straight, natural or black, brown, blonde, red or grey, she looks amazing. It could be vomit green or mustard yellow and she’d still look good.


9. She said if she could be anyone else, she would be Blue Ivy.

Who wouldn’t want Beyonce as their mother? People always compare the two women, but they don’t let it get between their friendship.

10. She doesn’t need a man.

Regardless of the Chris Brown situation, Rihanna is independent and strong and has come so far from her disastrous relationships. She deserves no less than a prince or a king.

11. As badass as she is, she still has a soft side.

During a sit-down interview with Kanye West, she discussed that people misconceive her and only see the tough, aggressive side of her, but all women have a vulnerability, including her. She doesn’t like to necessarily address this side of tears and sadness, because who wants to be vulnerable? The public has seen her at weak points, but she doesn’t let it stop her.

12. She has a legitimate holiday in her honor. Rihanna Day is on Feb. 22 in her native Barbados, two days after her birthday.

This should be a universal holiday, in my opinion.

All hail Queen Ri.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

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.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. 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.
