Back To School As Told By Friends
TV Guide

It doesn't matter if it's August or January. We have the same back to school feelings at the beginning of each semester. There are lots of feelings, emotions, primarily of sadness and longing for a longer break, but deep down there are always positives we find with the return to school. I think Friends tell it best. Just look below. No spoiler alerts should be given. And if there are, sorry not sorry. It's a show you should have watched by the end of freshmen year of college. Not that old? Well get ahead of the average game.

1. Waking up the first day too exhausted to do anything and not really knowing what you put on to wear.

2. When the first thing the teacher says is "let's go around the room and introduce ourselves with a fun fact."

3. Continually questioning why 8 AM classes exist, and why you always choose to enroll in them.

4. All the cute boys that you somehow have never seen before break.

5. Finding out you share one or more classes with your best pals.

6. Going to sleep the night before and wondering where your break went.

7. Realizing you have .25 seconds before the teacher walks in but you forgot to tell your friend the embarrassing thing that happened to your older brother.

8. Realizing you coming back to school meant that you are back with the ultimate squad of people who you couldn't imagine doing life without.

9. But no matter what good you find positive in going back to school, we are all Ross the night before/the morning of/the remainder of the semester:

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

Bonus points if it is more than two.

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.
