Fast Driver Probs

Living the life of a fast driver, nbd.

My biggest pet peeve is probably slow drivers, like get out of my way I have places to go and things to do! But also, DON'T DRINK, SNAPCHAT, OR TEXT AND DRIVE! You're putting so many lives in danger and I care about you! Anyway...

Driving on the freeway is one of my favorite places to drive, I mean usually it's pretty empty near me so I read the 65 mile per hour like 80 mile per hour...I mean, am I the only one? The one thing I absolutely hate is when people create a traffic line in a lane when the freeway is completely open. Like, seriously, dude? I get if you're going 70 because technically you can pass by going over 5 miles per hour the speed limit, but going 63 is not cool.

I take Las Virgenes Canyon to PCH everyday, so I know that road like the back of my hand. Want to know what's worse than driving behind a slow driver in a one lane canyon? Nothing. Now, I'm not driving some crazy speed because I don't want to fall off the canyon, but I go relatively over the speed limit. I've gotten so used to driving in the canyon it doesn't phase me.

In relation to my complaint before, PCH is like a holy road leading to the best place ever, the beach. Except it's a holy road leading to hell aka work (sometimes). I prefer this than the 405, like oh boy. I mean yes there are so many twists and turns but again, I can drive down probably blind folded because I've driven down it so often, I mean who hasn't if they live in SoCal or even California?

Oh and don't even get me started on the 405 freeway. This is hell. I mean, it's a fricking miracle if I even get over 25 miles per hour in rush hour traffic. I don't think anyone likes driving on the 405. It's cool if you wanna leave a two-car gap, but why would you want to leave a six-car gap, people are just gonna cut you off, and if that doesn't bug you, then live your life, buddy. Especially merging on the 405, I would rather jump in a pond of cacti.

I can formally say that I consider myself a fast, a--hole driver. If people are slow in front of me, I will throw a fit. People are probably going to read this and think, seriously, who is this girl? Other people will probably agree with me. Additionally, I like the people who agree with me.

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.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

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.

2. When your professor is babbling on and on in his lecture.
