Spring Beak is approaching quickly, but definitely not quickly enough. Most of us still have midterms to suffer through first. If you're already feeling bogged down by all the exams, papers, and projects you have to finish this week, take a break and read through these relatable stages of midterms week, as told by the cast of The Big Bang Theory.

1. Self-Confidence

You've been attending classes and doing the homework. You know you've got this in the bag.

2. Motivation

You crack open your books and do some serious studying... for about fifteen minutes.

3. Distraction

You decide to check your phone really quick. Next thing you know, you've wasted an hour sending snaps to your friends.

4. Helplessness

You open your book again and realize you don't know nearly as much as you thought you did.

5. Anger

You begin to feel resentful towards your exams and even your professors, but mostly yourself.

6. Defeat

You succumb to your fate, telling yourself one bad grade isn't the end of the world.

7. Relief

You finally make it to Friday and all of your worries are behind you. Except maybe which bathing suit you're going to bring to Florida with 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.

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?
