7 Gifs That Describe My Freshman Year At USC
Ralph Adams Cram

USC, it’s been fun. I’ve laughed, cried and overslept way too many times. In no way do I regret my time here… even after constantly complaining about papers and midterms, I actually did enjoy my time here. Since coming here in August, in total I have been here for a little less than 10 months-- almost a full year! And now that I’m packing a saying goodbye to the people I’ve met here, I don’t know, it’s a bit bitter-sweet.

...Ok, I say this, but just watch, in like 3-4 months when I’m back it’s going to be the same routine of complaining and questioning my majors...but all good! All part of the college experience!

Below are 7 gifs that I’ve found that summarize the few months I had at USC (and probably the experience of most college freshmen).

That first week when you actually do work and don't procrastinate:

study dancing GIF

Your sleep scheduled becoming completely messed up

When talking with financial aid/billing offices

people will GIF

Coming back from winter/spring break

Avoiding people when you really just want to be alone

go away goodbye GIF

Midterm/Finals season (so pretty much the whole year since this school has no concept of giving breaks to students)

study GIF

Leaving right after your last final because you're so done with this place

But even with being tired after finals season and quickly wanting to go home, I'm probably going to miss USC as soon as I get home.

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.
