From people who don't know how to properly use sunscreen to those who treat their game of beach volleyball as if they're in the Olympics, the beach is full of all different types of people. The real question is— which one are you?

1. The person wearing too much sunscreen.

They'll probably somehow still burn.


2. The person not wearing enough sunscreen.

Been there, burnt that.


3. The person who refuses to be in the sun.

You'll probably find them hiding under a beach towel.


4. The person who refuses to be anywhere but in the sun.

That tan isn't gonna happen on its own.


5. The person building a sandcastle as if they're on HGTV.

Gotta get those defined arches.


6. The water sports show-off.

We get it, now please stop doing yoga on your paddle board.


7. The person who practically brings a four-course meal.

They spend their entire beach trip hiding their food from the seagulls.


8. The person trying to get the perfect picture for social media.

Whether it's of the ocean or their friend group, it's gonna take a few takes and a few filters.


9. The person who takes it upon themselves to DJ for the entire beach.

We've all heard "One Dance," sir, this playlist isn't as innovative as you think it is.


10. The person who swims so far out it's as if they're trying to swim to a different continent.

The lifeguard's whistle isn't a signal to keep swimming further.


11. The parents who can't control their children.

If you could get your child to stop screaming in my ear, that would be great.


12. The friend group that takes their beach game way too seriously.

Whether it be volleyball or Kan-Jam, please calm down.


13. The person who refuses to put their book down.

There's a good chance they'll finish that entire book in one sitting.


14. The person who is using the beach as their personal turn-up zone.

It's five o'clock somewhere.


15. The friend group that is clearly missing college.

Beer pong in the sand, anyone?


16. The person who breaks the "don't feed the seagulls" rule.

Was giving that bird your pretzels really worth it?


17. The person who feels the need to swim right next to you.

Excuse me, but you literally have the entire ocean.


18. The person who doesn't understand proper beach etiquette.

If next time you could check the direction of the wind before shaking out your towel full of sand, that would be great.


19. The person who doesn't understand proper swim etiquette.

Yeah, just hit me with your boogie board and look at me as though it's my fault, it's all good.


20. The lifeguards who blow their whistle at anything.

The wave pushed me over here, I don't really know what you want me to do about it.


21. The person acting as if they're on Baywatch.

They don't seem to notice that they kick sand everywhere every time they run to the water and back.


22. The person who think it's a good idea to bring their infant to the beach.

Spoiler alert: It's not a good idea, it's a million degrees outside.


23. The person who brought everything they own with them.

It's surprising they didn't just park their car on the beach.


24. The person having the best nap of their life.

Nothing like the sun and sand to make you sleep away your beach trip.


25. The person who respects personal space and knows how to behave at the beach.

Hopefully this person is you.

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.

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.
