A Letter To My Future Daughter

To my heart,

You're gonna do great things in this world and especially in mine. I'm sure your just like me. Full of attitude and a huge smile. With so much intelligence to make me wonder how you do it.

Oh, sweet girl, how much I love you. You're so beautiful in every single way. I wonder if you have my curly hair, I wonder if you have my eyes.

I hope I can be the mom you deserve to have.

I can't promise to get you to school on time every morning but I can definitely promise to always always ALWAYS, support you through everything you love and everything you do.

I also can promise to cry at every recital, competition, graduation and your firsts.

I can't promise I won't embarrass you but just remember it's out of love miss thang.

When you become a teen, I know you won't understand that I was once a teen too and that I know what you're gonna go through. So just trust me.

I know you won't always like me and that's okay because everything I do will be for your own good.

I hope you pick good friends in high school, I hope you are honest and caring towards everyone.

Have a good heart.

You're going to face a lot of hard stuff in life and you have to be strong.

I pray Pray you don't cry at night when I'm asleep because of a broken heart.

You are so worthy of anything and everything you want. But sometimes things you want just aren't enough for you.

I promise to always remind you that I love you and hug you on your bad days.

And I will always pick you up when you fall. I will always kiss and hug you when tears are running down your face.

My number will always be on speed dial on your iPhone 10 (who knows).

Before I go, never forget who you are. If you learn one thing out of this, never lose that smile of yours. Don't let people or other influences change who you are. Stay true to your heart. Sometimes I forgot that and I will make sure you won't.

Sincerely,

Your future mom

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

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

Bonus points if it is more than two.

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.

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.
