Sometimes I still miss you

Sometimes I still miss you

So it's been a little while since you left, but you didn't really have a choice. It's so miserable without you here, you were my best friend, I told you everything. I could have the worst of all days and come home knowing you would be there to comfort me. We were thunder buddies. Ever since you left life just seems harder, I don't think it will get easier without you here. You always made me laugh even though you would annoy me sometimes too. Now that you're gone I'm not sure what to do because every now and then I still cry. You drove me crazy some days and best buddies the next. I never really got to choose what happened on days with you.

The day I got that phone call my life did change, it was hurtful, heart breaking, and so much more. We found out you had bone cancer and I just wasn't ready to lose you. We did what was best for you and now you're in heaven probably making other children happy, they say all dogs go to heaven right? Well I believe you did you were the most loving dog I know you even told me I love you in your own way (barking) and it was the cutest thing ever. I'm sad to say I can no longer chase you, play with you, snuggle with you, or face thunder storms with you. Thanks for being my best friend for years on end.

Still to this day I have your ashes in s box near my bed. I look at it all the time although no one notices I try to hide it. I keep your leash near it too and think of all the times I had to take you out and you would go crazy every time you saw a squirrel, I don't know why you hated them so much or any breathing outside for that matter. You had a personality of your own Mocha. You are always going to be missed I know by many, but you'll always be missed by me.

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.
