I've never experienced hurt like this before

An Open Letter To The Guy That Broke My Heart

Dear *insert name*,

First of all, I just want you to know that I don't hate you at all and I don't think I could ever hate you. I remember talking to you on the phone until one of us fell asleep. I remember the first time I knew I was in love with you, the first time you sent my heart from my chest to my stomach. I've always been the type of person who has never able to fully open up and be myself. You, however, brought out the crazy side of me that only my family and close friends have seen and made me feel like I was the only girl in the world. You were my first love, the first guy I said, "I love you" to but you were also something else. You were my first true heartbreak.

The day you broke up with me will forever be sketched into my mind. I didn't know what to do with myself. You were my best friend and my shoulder to cry on so I felt hurt and betrayed. I wasn't mad at you, more like disappointed because you didn't fight for me, or for us. You broke me. You hurt me. You made me feel love like I never have and then took it away.

I want you to know that we are going to be okay. Even though our relationship ended, you still mean a lot to me. You taught me things that no one else could. I learned new things about you and about myself. You taught me that it's perfectly okay to be a little crazy. You taught me to look at the positive in every situation. You taught me that I am stronger than I think, and when some things happens and hurts me, I can pick myself up and gather the pieces to put back together. You also taught me what love is and how I should be treated.

Like I said before, I don't hate you and I never will be able to. I hope one day when you build your family, you will look back on our relationship and learn like I did. I also hope that you treat your wife the way you treated me. Neither of us are bad people and we know this. One day, we will fine the one. Until that day comes, thank you for making me stronger and teaching me lessons.

Sincerely,

The Girl With The Broken Heart...Who Is No Longer Broken

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.

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.
