  1. Drink gallons of caffeine in different forms (you might even pop caffeine pills)
  2. We need to stay the hell up so if drinking coffee and redbull at the same time helps, then so be it. My body is a garbage can anyways.
  1. Procrastinate
    1. I’m currently writing this article to prevent myself from seeing the horrors of my to-do list. If you’re reading this right now, you’re procrastinating too.
  2. Nap
    1. Oh the bestfriend of procrastinating is taking a nap so you can forget temporarily that you have so much to do. You have two midterms and a paper due in three days? Okay, let’s take a nap.
  3. Stress about everything
    1. Okay nap time is over, time to stress about literally everything that needs to be done. The pressure of getting a good GPA starts to run down your studious veins and you need to get it done now.
  4. Break down
    1. After the stress, you start mad cramming through all the readings you should have done rather than shoot down ten jello shots. Next thing you know, you realize you have to pull all nighters to get all the readings and essays done in time. You feel the screams wanting to come out of you and then you’re crying on the lap of your best friend. It’s a lowpoint.
  5. Pull All nighters
    1. After breaking down and realizing you need to get your ish together, you run to moffit or mainstacks to finish literally all the procrastinated work you have. You chug a can of redbull and crank down on that essay.
  6. Run to GBC for those blue books
    1. You forgot that you needed two blue books for this dang midterm and now you have to run to GBC to get them. BUT this is after you ask everyone if they have any extras
  7. Take the Midterms
    1. After cramming, you finally get to taking the midterms. It’s either easy or hard and you come out crying anyways
  8. Hate the Process
    1. Everyone hates it. I don’t even need to explain this one
    2. Party Until you Drop
    1. Midterms are finally over, but knowing you have round two coming up you celebrate by dropping it like it hot at your local club or frat!

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.

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.
