To all the college seniors out there, I am sorry that you didn't get the ceremony you hoped for. I am sorry that you missed out on the last couple of months of your college life. But hear me out, all the work you did to get here did not go unnoticed. You guys are superstars!

That being said, the college seniors deserve something nice on their graduation. I have compiled a list of some items that every college senior will love.


1. Simple tool kit

Because every college graduate will need a screwdriver when they don't have one on hand. This small kit has everything they will need for simple fixes around their new house or apartment.

2. Fun coffee mugs

College students LIVE on coffee and caffeine. Help them by gifting them of some cute coffee mugs that they can show off!

3. A professional outfit

College graduates are applying for jobs, and most likely will need a professional outfit for interviews. Help get that expense out of the way.

4. A COVID-19 shirt

Classic. Graduation ceremonies wouldn't be the same without something coronavirus related.

5. A new suitcase

Hopefully by the time of graduation, they will be able to travel and have a good time with friends.

6. Gym membership

Help keep them active and healthy! Buy them a local gym membership so they don't have to worry about another monthly payment.

7. Money

Student debt. Loans. Books. Groceries. We are all broke, help us out.

8. AirPods

To block out any negativity. And look cool while doing so.

9. Wine glasses

After college, you know they will need to drink to forget. Trust me.

10. Custom map print of their college town

This is a super cute idea. You can have a map printed of their college town so that way it will always be with them.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
