Will Someone Help Me Understand How Boys Work?

April's son had it going on, but not anymore, because boys are too confusing!

Will Someone Help Me Understand How Boys Work?

After seeing you earlier this week, I realized that I am so done with even thinking about you being in my life. I don't understand boys because of you.

Who hangs out with you, goes on a date with you, lets you meet their mom and then decides you're too chill, and you're not what they wanted? I really don't want to just play around with you, so here's to you stupid, because so many guys would kill to have a girlfriend that's "too chill".

Also, your mom was really cool, and I would've liked being her friend, but that would mean I'd have to put up with you, so no thanks.

Excuse me for being anti-PDA and for not wanting to lock my fingers with yours when holding hands. Sorry I don't like sharing blankets with people or cuddling. Sorry that I don't care about your ex-girlfriend or even your girl best friend- I don't understand why you would want that to phase me.

Why do boys want the excessive, crazy controlling girlfriend when they can have someone to just chill with? I've never understood that.

I'm in no way a perfect person, and I'll admit, I was starting to grow on your cuddling ways, but it's really not me.

There's nothing wrong with chilling with your man at home, instead of expecting him to shower you with gifts. I think what's most important is quality time and words of affirmation. Just knowing that you're there is more important than spending every waking minute with you.There's nothing wrong with doing your own thing, and hanging out with your friends, while I hang out with mine. We don't have to even have the same friends.

And being friends with your mom would've been cool. Why can't I just hang out with her some days while you do your thing with the homies? I guess that's just asking too much.

Will someone please help me understand how boys work?

Sincerely, every girl everywhere.

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.

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment. The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

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.

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.
