20 Thoughts Every Girl Has When She Brings A Guy To Her Dorm Room For The First Time

Nothing terrifies me more than bringing a guy over to my dorm room. I live in my own room in a suite of ten single rooms, but the walls are paper thin, and noise travels fast, so soon the eight other girls in my suite will hear a masculine voice and know someone has infiltrated the forces.

It's always exciting meeting someone new, but it can be super nerve-wracking too because they could be nothing like who they are online or outside of the classroom. I feel like guys are so low maintenance, but I still like to make sure every little thing is presentable for him when he comes over. Of course, it doesn't always work out that way. This thing called life makes us super busy when we really need a free twenty minutes to clean up a little...or a lot.

1. Is my room a mess... I haven't been back all day

2. Let me just shove everything out of sight and pretend I'm this clean all the time

3. If he can't appreciate my stuffed animals he isn't the kind of man I need in my life

4. Do I smell?

5. Should I keep this outfit on or switch into something comfier? I think I'll go with athleisure because comfort is key

6. Was that a knock? He's here!

7. OK, OK... he's so much cuter IRL

8. This convo is going really well, I'm actually shocked this guy knows how to hold a real conversation

9. WHERE DID THAT CLUMP OF HAIR COME FROM

10. I'm just going to put my bag on top of it and hope he doesn't realize what I'm doing

11. Let's plug in the old reliable string lights to really set the mood

12. Wow, I'm really sitting here with this super cute boy, touching knees! He has the cutest smile...

13. Did I tell my suitemates that there's a boy over?

14. Do I have condoms? (You know, just in case)

15. I should probably offer him something to drink or eat

16. This movie is beyond boring I kinda regret picking it

17. He's about to kiss me... here we go!!

18. What a great kisser, maybe a little too much tongue, but other than that no complaints on this end

19. No Netflix, we aren't still watching, but thanks for asking

20. He complimented me on my Johnny Cash Poster and asked to see me again. Looks like I can revert to my less than clean ways again until he comes back!

Hopefully hanging out again actually happens, but it's so hard to gauge what a guy will do these days. All we can do is play the perfect host in our small cube of space called a dorm!

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

StableDiffusion

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.

13 Times April Ludgate Perfectly Explained College

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

2334

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.

Being A Senior: The Best And Worst Of It

Graduation is coming.

Loyola University Chicago

1080

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

1. When you have to provide an "interesting fact" for your first day ice-breaker.

2. When your professor is babbling on and on in his lecture.

3. When you edit your friend's paper and they get an A.

4. When it's 2 AM and you remember you have a test tomorrow.

5. When you finish taking the test and you're pretty sure you failed...

6. ...but then you get the test back and somehow passed.

7. When you've been up for 12 hours straight writing a paper.

8. And then you manage to stay awake in class the next day.

9. When you have to butter up your professor for an extra credit opportunity.

10. When you're assigned a group project.

11. And your group-mates are trying to chat about life instead of the assignment.

12. When it's your last class of the day and you're about to go home.

13. But then you remember rent is due tonight and the anger comes back.

Graduation is coming.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

2. You probably have a fancy internship somewhere.

3. You and your pals are all of a legal age to drink (even the late bloomers).

4. The future... what is that?

5. Apply, interview, rejection, repeat.
