Old Stories Re-Told From An Old Me

I was cleaning out my computer a while ago, when I found a story I wrote for school a few years back. If you guys remember the old book "If you give a mouse a cookie," then you'll understand this. Before deleting this off my hard drive forever, I thought I might share it with you guys.

So, here's "If you give Shakespeare a word."

If you Shakespeare a word, then he’ll probably try to find a word to go with it

If Shakespeare finds a word to go with the word you gave him, then he’ll try to form a poem.

If Shakespeare forms a poem, then he’ll read it aloud to you.


If he reads it aloud to you, then he’ll probably ask you for some water.


If he asks you for some water, then Shakespeare might spill it on his pants.


If Shakespeare spills his water on his pants, then he will ask you for a new pair of pants.


If he asks you for a new pair of pants, then he might like the style.


If he likes the style, then he’ll ask for you to go shopping with him to pick out more pants.


If he goes shopping, then he’ll get hungry.


If he gets hungry, then he’ll take you to get lunch.


If he takes you for lunch, then Shakespeare will eat spinach pasta and milk.

If Shakespeare eats spinach pasta and milk, then he’ll get a milk mustache and spinach in his teeth.


If he gets a milk mustache and spinach in his teeth, then he’ll ask to go to the bathroom.


If Shakespeare asks to go to the bathroom, then he’ll slip and fall from the water.


If Shakespeare slips and falls from the water in the bathroom, then you’ll have to take him to the hospital.

If you take Shakespeare to the hospital, then he’ll think of another poem to write.

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.

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.
