The coronavirus has caused people to lose their jobs, making it hard to pay bills and purchase necessities. It has also made it harder for teenagers to get jobs and save money for college or to pay for their own necessities that their parents won't pay for. Here's some jobs that you can do if you are struggling to make money right now.

1. Instacart

Instacart is what I have currently been doing to make some extra money. You go grocery shopping for other people and deliver it to their house. You get paid from Instacart and tips on top of that. It's an extremely easy and quick way to make money.

2. Working at a grocery store

I've noticed that a lot of grocery stores are hiring at the moment. My friend just got a job at one and she said it pays well and has a flexible schedule. The only thing she personally does not like about it is having to be on her feet for 8 hours straight.

3. Doordash

Doordash is another option to make some easy money. You accept the order, go to the restaurant to pick up the food, and deliver it. It's as simple as that. Just like Instacart, you get paid from Doordash and you also receive tips.

4. Babysitting/Nannying

Some states are beginning to reopen and are allowing businesses to have their employees come back to work. These employees may need someone to watch their kids if daycares aren't open yet. I wouldn't recommend doing this if you don't like kids.

5. Uber

If you have your own car, consider becoming an Uber driver. It pays well and some people may prefer to take an Uber instead of a bus or train right now.

6. Create your own small business

Come up with an idea you are passionate about and sell it! There are tons of platforms out there to help you promote your idea or product. Plus, you would be your own boss and who wouldn't want that?

Get out there and start making money. There are endless options of what you can do.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
