The gym is one of those places where you can find all types of people. From fitness buffs to New Year's resolution gym goers, there is a gym type for everyone. At times it seems more like a comedy show than a place of fitness. These are the people you meet at the gym.

1. The person who does not belong.

They don't last long.

2. The person who grunts while lifting.

We all know when Steve is lifting.

3. The person who is only at the gym to get a date.

These people need to try speed dating.

4. The person who can't help but showoff.

No one cares about the cool treadmill tricks.

5. The person who lives at the gym.

Gym memberships are cheaper than rent and easier to maintain than a social life.

6. The person who uses the gym for childcare.

Apparently, people think they can drop their kids off at the gym babysitters and then leave (without working out).

7. The person who watches the big game at the gym.

This person needs to get their own TV.

8. The person who dresses up for the gym.

No sane person actually wears make-up to the gym.

9. The person who leaves in less than 15 minutes.

80 percent of that time is spent doing something else.

10. The person who has no idea what they are doing.

Look at the guide. It has pictures.

11. The person who works the front desk.

Probably not at the front desk. Look for someone who knows what they are doing, then you will find them.

12. The person who drops the weights.

Annoying? Yes. Cool? No.

13. The person who thinks their workout is a Rocky montage.

It’s not.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

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

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment. The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

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.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it.

April Ludgate

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.
