Being a college student is tough. Amidst extracurriculars, classes, tests, homework, and all kinds of other obligations, it's pretty common to have a mental breakdown (or two....or three....or ten....) along the way. Sometimes self-inflicted, yet always traumatizing, here's 10 breakdowns you probably haven't been able to avoid in your time as a college student:

1. Refusing to do laundry until you have nothing to wear.

Guess I'm going for the disheveled and sweaty look today.

2. Eating ramen 4 times since Tuesday since you have no swipes left.

Probably all of the chocolate chip cookies I bought last week.

3. *Checks Bank Account*

*Mostly empty from buying coffee and more chocolate chip cookies.*

4. Realizing your test grade was a lot lower than you thought.

5. Having an assignment due at midnight but procrastinating until 11pm until you hate yourself.

Basically as painful as spraying yourself with pepper spray?

6. Being so tired after an all-nighter you can't think, breathe, participate, or function properly.

Sleep is for the weak.

7. Debating changing your major 4 different times (to all different disciplines.)

Theology? No, wait, definitely Psychology. Nope. Nope. I want to be a theatre major. Jk no, we're keeping it. Wait....Communications sounds cool?

8. Trying to talk to someone about your future plans.

I can be Beyonce if I really want to, okay?!

10. *Someone asks what you're doing after graduation*

Nope. Nope. Nope.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

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.
