know I'm that "extra" girlfriend. You know, that girlfriend that is always doing the most and is always doting on their S.O? Yeah, that's me. I own it. But is it you? Don't get me wrong, there is NOTHING wrong with being extra, but here's how you can figure out if you are if you don't already know. If you do know: Welcome by fellow sisters. Make yourselves at home (with a "Future Apartment" Pinterest board).

1. Every little thing your S.O. does is cause for celebration.

They could get an A on an exam and you'd be their cheerleader. They could have JUST gotten over a cold and you're sitting there, hugging on them like "Yay. you're not sick anymore!" Honey, they could breathe too loudly and your heart will flutter.

2. Your password may or may not have something to do with your S.O

There's no shame in it. It's either that or your dog's name but someone won the "Who's cuter" argument. it was a tough choice.

3. You randomly do cute little surprises twice a month or weekly, there's no in between.

Your friends will tell you, "Why are you so extra?" I hear it all the time. Sometimes it's annoying but most of the time I take pride in it and you should as well because there's no shame in feeling an emotion that strong that you want to celebrate it and remind your partner how much they mean to you.

4. Without noticing, the number one topic most likely to come up in conversation will be how awesome your S.O. is.

Do I talk about my S.O. too much? Maybe, I don't know. Probably but do I care? Not really.

5. You have a Pinterest wedding board floating around, just in case.

Ok, in my defense I may have had this for years...I just update it frequently. But you won't ever let your S.O. see it, just in case it scares them, but on the bright side, if y'all get married, it'll be a breeze because you've had it planned for months.

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.

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.
