The Process of Moving Out Told by The Jersey Shore

Pop Culture

So now as you tackle finals season, its time to do the most other dreaded activity of this time of the year, moving out. Your residence hall has probably emailed you about thirty times by now. Your parents have probably come to pick up just some of your stuff. You probably have started cleaning and packing. I mean lets face it you probably don't have time for some GTL- gym, tanning, laundry. Overall, we all share in the struggle of moving out of the dorms.

1. You start to look around and realize how much stuff you have

via GIPHY

Did you need all of this stuff? No. Do you regret it? Yes. There is just stuff in every crevice and you have no idea how to move it all.

2. The clothes and shoes

via GIPHY

Well theres so much stuff you don't even know where to begin. Theres to much to fit in bags so lawn and leaf bags become your new BFF. You swear you will never ever pack 6 pairs of flip flops again, but lets face it you will again next year.

3. The Decorations

via GIPHY

You quietly swear to yourself your never putting up lights again. You swear that your going to burn your tapestry when you get home as you slowly remove every 3M hook and pieces of tape from the walls.

4. The Cleaning

via GIPHY

Why is there so much dust? Why is it so gross? Your tiring as you scrub but the end of moving out is no where in site.

5. The Carrying to The Car

via GIPHY

Your parents are ready to disown you because you have so much stuff. Your car is packed. You begin to wonder if the trunk will close with this much stuff in it. Your sweating from running in and out and you feel like your running a marathon.

6. The Escorted Check Out

via GIPHY

As you returning your key and letting the RA through, your thinking "Please don't charge me any damage fees, I didn't damage anything I promise", "Please tell me I didn't forget anything." And then its all good and they walk out.

7. Saying Goodbye to Your Room

via GIPHY

You shed a tear as you slowly shut the door. Goodbye to your little home, your little bed and to your neighbors and friends. *sobs*

8. Getting home with all your stuff.

via GIPHY

And just when you thought there was a light at the end of the tunnel, you now have the pleasure of unpacking everything, sorting through everything again, and packing it all away until next year.

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.

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

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.
