Anger Management

It's a thing in everyone

Anger Management
Word Press

I think everyone can be angry. It’s in our system to be angry, and when we push aside our anger it doesn’t just go away, it piles up until you explode. My anger explodes all the time because all I do is bottle it up. I could make this article about the thousands of things that have made me angry in the last week and how I randomly shake like a little chihuahua because I’m so mad, but instead I’m going write an article about how to get over yourself because in the grand scheme people who make you angry even though they might have a huge impact on your life now in no more than a couple of years or months they won’t.

If it’s specific people that drive you nuts drop them. If it’s your family that drives you nuts you can’t drop them, it’s okay. That’s normal (I hope) and you will either be in college or you will be living on your own soon enough. I’m not telling you to run away from your family, it’s your family, they are forced to love you no matter what and you are forced to love them no matter what. However, I guarantee you your relationship with them will only get better with space so you can appreciate them instead of being suffocated by them all the

Anger is normal and the moment you allow yourself to stop suppressing it all the time, it is the moment you'll be able to let go of the "anger" emotion. Sometimes (most the time) you should say what is on your mind because keeping it inside will only eat you up and drive you crazy. Take a step back and look at a situation. It may seem like the world now, but what about the next week...what about the next month...what about the next year? It probably will not mean anything then. So ask yourself is it really worth getting angry over if it won't matter in a week? It is just something to think about.

Anger is something that can control people, but as a person, I can say I do not want it to be controlling me. However, I know in my core that it is just an emotion that occurs in us humans, and we must learn to control it before it consumes us.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

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

Bonus points if it is more than two.

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.

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.
