How You Feel During Finals Week, As Told By 'How I Met Your Mother'

December means the end of the semester, and that means exams. We have all been there. You study all night just to try to get your grade up one letter grade, but are usually disappointed in the end. You're one of the lucky ones if you have no exams or very few, but the rest of us are riding the struggle bus.

Here are your exam week emotions, as told by "How I Met Your Mother."

1. Getting the bare minimum A

An A is an A, right?

2. When your professor doesn't round your 89 to an A

I could have an 89.9 and most teachers still won't help out.

3. You think you bomb you exam until you check and you managed a B

This was me last year. Gave myself a little pat on the back after.

4. Barely passing American History with a 70%

Or at least this is how I think those people really feel.

5. Simply failing your exam

Best of luck when you retake that class.

6. When you do good on an exam, but it doesn't bring your grade up any

This happens to me all the time.

7. Staying up all night to study

Monsters and Red Bull are your best friends.

8. How you feel walking out of your exam

This is me waiting for the bus back to my dorm room.

9. You studied all week and you finally get home and your mom makes a home cooked meal

The. Best. Feeling. EVER.

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.

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.
