The 10 Stages Of Going To Class Hungover

Instagram

Taking shots at 2am seemed like a great idea at the time. (Key words: at the time). When you wake up for your morning lecture, it's gonna suck. You have a mixed drink dried in your hair, you're still wearing last nights outfit, you didn't plug your phone in, and definitely did not brush your teeth. This might be what hell is like.

1."I'm not hungover"

You're still drunk and in denial. I get it. Just cherish the next hour of your life until the inevitable hangover sets in. Bonus points if the bed you woke up in isn't yours.

2. Unquenchable thirst

Because you totallydrank water last night between pulls of Skol and dancing with Chad at Apple Sigma Pie. (I know you didn't). And of course, you didn't fill up your water bottle last night. *Cue drinking out of the bathroom sink*

3. Falling back asleep

So my lecture is in 37 minutes... That gives me just enough time for a quick 45-minute nap.

4. Realizing you missed class

It's not that important. You just have a midterm next week and have only gone twice.

5. Resolving to make it to the next class

The thought of walking to class makes you want to cry. Heres hoping its raining outside so no one can see your tears.

6. Smelling like a mini-bar in class

Realizing there's jungle juice in your hair and you're wearing the sweatshirt of the guy who walked you home (which has a mysterious stain that you didn't notice until now- you hope it isn't yak).

7. The hangover

It hits you like a bus. One minute you're sorta paying attention in class and then the next minute you're planning your escape.

8. Escaping class

Accepting that this is NOT happening today and that you have more respect for yourself than to sit in a room full of people you don't know with raccoon-mascara eyes hoping that you don't throw up in front of everyone.

9. "I'm NEVER drinking again"

The very thought of alcohol makes you gag. You've had a hot shower, a Gatorade, and an emergen-C but everything is still terrible and you swear you can still smell the Skol.

10. Who wants to go out tonight?

Doing it all over again because hey, you're only young once.

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.
