Thank you for caring about me so much

I want to start this off by thanking you.

There was never a moment in my life where I have ever doubted you for longer than a second. You and I have a connection that, though it may not be the same as it once was, now remains just as strong as ever.

This is something that I am eternally grateful for because you still and probably will always mean so much to me.

I may have said some things about you after everything that happened, but you never took any of it to heart and you've done the hardest thing that you can do with an ex, you've stuck around. You continue to do so much for me even through to this day. When I had my heart broken by a friend, who I never anticipated would do anything to hurt me, you were there.

You talked me through everything and told me that I wasn't wrong.

You made me see the other side of things and eventually helped me move on to repair this friendship. When I was having issues with my knee, you did as you do and googled my symptoms. If not only to give me peace of mind, but also yourself. I told you that I thought a brace would help and you offered to order me one from Amazon. You've done things for me that only my immediate family has done. You actually give a shit about me and that is something that I could never thank you enough for. So once again, I thank you.

You are the person I could call at 3 a.m. because I'm having a mental breakdown and you would still come with no questions asked. I know that I can confide in you for literally anything and everything. You give advice based off of your own experiences (and there are MANY experiences).

You do everything you do for others before yourself and it is something that I will always admire about you.

There are so many things that you have done for me up until this point and you will probably do for me in the future. There was a time where I wasn't sure of college prior to my arrival and you changed my outlook on the whole thing. You are one of the people who make me look forward to my days and getting out of bed. Friends like you are the exact people I need in my life. You make me laugh until my sides are splitting and tears are streaming down my cheeks. You light up my entire day. There is so much I have learned from you and so much I will still learn from you.

I will end this letter to you the exact same way I began it. I just want to thank you for everything. Thank you for caring. Thank you for being my rock. You and I have been through so much together and for that, I continue to be eternally grateful.

There is a lot that I couldn't have done without you.

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

Bonus points if it is more than two.

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. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

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.
