Thanks for being my second family

To My Best Friends

To the biggest weirdos I know,

I don't really know how to express the love I have for all of you. You made growing up in our tiny town feel so wonderful and full. I have spent endless days and nights with you all laughing till I cry and being so content with just hanging around.

I consider myself lucky to have been able to have such solid friends all throughout my high school years. So many people lose their friends when they go off to college but I know that I won't lose you. I just can't imagine my life without you.

You all exemplify the perfect definition of best friends.

You have held me up in my worst times, even when you didn't know how low I really was, and you have created such a comfortable environment for me to be able to express my feelings. You know everything about me and I can easily admit that you know me better than I know myself. You know my habits, my quarks, and almost every move before I make it. I can always count on you guys to be there for me because you know exactly what I need. I'm able to talk to you about anything and I feel comfortable sharing my failures just as much as my successes. Your advice, support, and general friendship over the years has helped shape me into who I am today.

Some of my favorite memories of all time have you all in them and I wouldn't want it any other way. You are my other sisters and I count myself lucky to get to have so many.

Now that we are all separated and living such different lives across the state, I look back on our memories often and can't help but smile. I love you weirdos and I can't wait to make more memories with you in the future.

Thanks for everything, KB, Briz, and ENA.

Love,

Carol.

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.

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.
