10 Holiday Gifts Every College Student Wants

Christmas is going to be here before you know it, so you'd better start planning out what to ask for! Here are some gifts that every college student would be glad to receive:

1. A Gas Card

Everyone knows that gas is expensive. A gas card is a great, practical gift that any college student would be excited to open.

2. Food

This is an easy one. College students will love any food that they're given, be it store-bought or home-made. From chips to ramen to cookies, food is the perfect gift. (Make it homemade food if you want to kick it up a notch)

3. Socks

Yes, we have crossed over into the territory of wanting socks for Christmas. Any student would be happy with a pair of warm, fuzzy, comfy winter socks,

4. A Keurig

Another easy one. All college students love coffee and a Keurig is cheaper than constant coffee runs.

5. A Bluetooth Speaker

Speakers don't necessarily have to be expensive. Whether you want to go high end or lower end, you can find a great speaker for a good price.

6. A Bike

This is on the more expensive side of things, but you can always check out used bikes as well. A bike makes it easy for college students to get around quickly and cheaply.

7. Gift cards to Starbucks & Chipotle

If you know college kids, you know that they love Starbucks and Chipotle. They'll appreciate gift cards for either store!

8. A Kindle

Kindle's are great gifts for those with reading intensive majors. You can even find textbooks on the Kindle now. This gift will pay for itself!

9. A Subscription to Netflix

Pretty much every college student has a Netflix subscription. It provides hours of procrastination, er, enjoyment for students!

10. An Interview Outfit

Clothes are expensive! College students will appreciate a good outfit to wear on job and internship interviews.

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.

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.

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.
