1. TOO MANY GHOSTS ( AND NO, I DON'T MEAN THE FRIENDLY OR HOLY ONES.)

https://www.rd.com/culture/scientific-explanation-for-ghosts/

My love life of online dating had become a vicious cycle of meet, greet, then ditch without warning. I understand that no one in this world owes me a thing, but if you are bold enough to sleep with someone then you can be bold enough to tell them its over.

​2. ITS LITERALLY WHERE 90% OF THE PLANET'S MOST INSECURE/ CONTROLLING MEN HIDE.

Ah, I'll never forget the day I met my first Mr. divorced, its all my ex wife's fault man. He spoke so much about wanting a woman with an opinion, but what he really wanted was to be my dad, and I already have two of those; no thank you.

3.CONSTANT UNWANTED PHOTOS OF MEAT POTATOES...

You know what I mean.

4. HALF OF THESE DUDES ONLINE WERE ALREADY IN RELATIONSHIPS!!

My body is not a gateway to cheating. You cannot come in.

5. I STARED TO ACCEPT, EMBRACE AND ENJOY MY SINGLENESS.

Everyone has a different story, and if I'm not in a relationship right now, its clearly for a reason, and that is just perfectly fine.

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?
