Ladies, throughout our lives people constantly tell us how we should act, what we should say, what we are expected to do and how we are supposed to do it. Women aren't expected to be successful, or different, or even have their own opinion. I'm here to tell each and every woman that having an opinion and speaking your mind is the most beautiful thing you can do.

Every woman has a right to their own opinion, we are allowed to be bold. If anything, men are scared of the power women are capable of achieving. We are capable of doing absolutely anything we set our mind to, and I can guarantee we do it just as well as anyone else. If you want to be an engineer, do it. If you want to be a teacher, do it. If you want to be the President of the United States of America, DO IT.

Every single woman is different, and every single one of us has different aspirations, appearances, and outlooks on life. And every single one of us can do great things. Women are beautiful no matter how we look or what anyone says. We are ALL beautiful and no one can tell us differently.

We are faced with other expectations daily, and we need to stick together and stand up for each and every one of us. We are capable of achieving the world and we should be encouraging women around us, not bringing them down. With the stigma surrounding females, sticking together is the most important thing we can do. It doesn't matter what other people think. We are all equal and we are all the best version of ourselves.

Women are constantly torn down and told degrading things, but we are smart, we are beautiful and we are bold. So don't let any person tell you can't be who you want to be.

"A man does what he can; a woman does what a man cannot." - Isabel Allende

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.

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment. The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

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.
