After everything that happened I really should hate you, but instead, I want to thank you. 2 years I had stuck around I really thought one day it would just all fall into place and be happily ever after. But at 19 I’m now realizing exactly what I was to you. I was convenient. I was an easy backup. Just tell her what she wants to hear, give her a little bit of hope, give her a little bit of rope and just real her back in when you need her. You used me. Well that’s the past and it will no longer happen again so for that thank you.

Thank you for showing me what I was worth. I’m worth way more than a “Hey what are you up to?!” text message at 10 o’clock at night when your bored, and have nothing better to do.

Thank you for showing me that actions speak WAY louder than words. You were loud and clear, you walked away I didn’t I waited way too many times for you to come back. But the problem was each time you came back I was still there waiting. There you’d go again someone new to talk to and goodbye, but you’d be back around in less than a month, we both knew it.

Thank you for telling your friends things that were supposed to stay between us. You proved you could not be trusted. Many times.

Thank you for letting me down so many time. Canceled plans and false hope. You really did a number on my mind and heart.

Thank you for showing me you weren’t worth fighting for. I kick myself in the ass thinking about every single time I defended you to someone. “He really is a good guy, he’s just having a bad day”, “He’s not normally like this”. Truth is, that’s how you always were I just wanted to believe that you would come around, and be the guy I hoped you were.

Thank you for showing me that I’m no one's second choice. I deserve more than that. I deserve someone who cares about me and not just getting with me. When I ask to hang out and your too busy with your ex, I was then your second choice and that will never happen again

Thank you for not fighting for me. Thank you for letting me go at the right time. Thank you for every single moment that let to where we both are today.

Everyone in your life is either a lesson or a blessing, well I figured it out. You were a lesson, a really big one. Thanks for breaking me and making me feel like the world won’t go on without you. Guess what! The world does go on without you and it's pretty great out here.

Thanks for everything, I hope you're happy now!

XOXO,

The girl who would have given you her world

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.
