7 Things To Look Forward To This Summer
High School Musical

It is almost here everyone. The time we have all been waiting for since fall semester started. It is almost summertime! Time for relaxation and a school-less lifestyle. Here is a list of 7 things you can look forward to getting you through the last few days of the semester.

1. Home cooked meals

No more dining hall meals. No more ramen or microwaveable meals. Back to the good stuff.

2. Your Bed

Nothing. Absolutely nothing beats the feeling of sleeping in your own bed after a year in a small dorm or apartment bed.

3. You don't have to pay for your own groceries.

Hand-in-hand with home cooked meals, this is something you just can't appreciate enough.

4. Not having to do your own laundry.

No more paying for washing and drying. No more doing it yourself. Finally, empty your hamper and throw your laundry in with the rest of the family's.

5. Seeing your pets.

Time to remind your pets that you still exist only to leave them again in a few months, so cherish your time with them.

6. No homework.

Unless you are taking summer classes, school work shouldn't even be a thought for the next two or three months.

7. Sleeping.

Goodnight everyone. Time for a three-month-long nap.

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.

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.
