To The Loved One I Lost

You'll always be in my heart.

To The Loved One I Lost
Kaitlyn Martin

I miss you. Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. I had so many great memories with you and I wish I could go back and relive them again. You were a big part of my life and I miss you dearly. To this day I still can't imagine that you're gone. It's hard to believe that someone can just be taken away from you like that. And I wish you were still here today.

It seems like just yesterday you were teaching me how to knit, play games with my sister and I, and braiding my hair for me all when I was young. You taught me so much when you were here. Especially how to love and care for others.

That's what I loved the most about you. You were the sweetest, gentlest, and most kind-hearted person that has ever been apart of my life. I never once saw you mad. You always were laughing and smiling. You put everyone else before you. Always making sure your family's happiness came before yours.

And with all that you've done for me, I wish I could have done for you. I always wonder how everything would be if you were still alive. I still had so much I wanted you to be apart of in my life. Being there for when I graduated high school or when I got my first job. I had so much I wanted to experience with you and still do. Like watching me walk down the aisle when I get married, watching me graduate college, and even getting to meet my kids when I have them. However, even though you aren't with me physically, I know you're still with me spiritually. Looking out for me and being my guardian angel.

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.

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.
