A Thank You To My Co-Workers, You Are The Best, Whether I Tell You Or Not
Emily Henrichs

First of all, thanks for putting up with me. I'm kidding. Really, though, I don't know where I would be if I didn't have all of you. The first day we met, I embarrassed myself and yet, you still choose to talk to me. I don't know how or why you do it, but thanks.

I'd also like to thank you for making me laugh on days I didn't even want to be at work. There have definitely been some days I wanted to stay home and not show up. There have been days I didn't want to face the world or deal with the nonsense. However, I knew I would get to see you and that would make everything better. So, thank you for that.

Thank you for lifting me up when all I wanted to do was cry. Some of you have seen me in the worst of places. Yet, you talk me through all of that. I remember crying because of people and how overwhelmed I was, and you talked me through all of it. I really don't know what I would do if it wasn't for you.

You have lifted me up when it comes to sucky situations.

Whenever I tell you I had a terrible morning or the day before, you let me know it's okay to be sad about that stuff, but we're going to dance real quick. Everything is better for some reason because of that. I love you, homies.

Thank you for helping me even when I don't ask for help. but really need it. I'm stubborn. You already know that. I truly believe I can do anything and everything on my own. I simply cannot though. So, thank you for helping my stubborn self get the boxes off the top shelf. Thank you for helping me get through the days I despised.

Thank you for letting me be in a space I am comfortable and I do well in. It's fairly simple, but my anxiety gets the best of me sometimes and doesn't allow me to work well in stressful situations. Thank you for teaching me, too. I don't say thank you enough when it comes to that.

I'm so glad I have you.

You have taught me so much in the past year, and I could never say thank you enough. I'm glad I get to work with people like you who have dance parties, listen to absolute bops I don't even understand, and simply make me happy. You have made the past year so great.

Thank you isn't enough. We have had some weird moments together which have only turned into moments I look back on and smile. We have laughed at things that wouldn't make sense to anyone else. And we have simply had a great time together. I love all of you.

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.
