As Christmas is coming around the corner after finals, your parents are probably hounding you with questions about what you want to receive this year. Money is an easy request, but there are also so many other things that you may have never thought about that could, in reality, make coming back to college in January so much more bearable. This list consists of everything from food to hygienics. Here's a few!

1. Toilet Paper

Because you aren't a two-ply guy or gal. You deserve that four-ply.

2. Tissues

Because you're either going to get the winter sniffles or cry when you have to work again after break.

3. A Longboard

So you don't have to look longingly as people speed past your walking self.

4. A Bike

For those incapable of balancing on a board, or to show those boarders a good race.

5. Re-useable Water Bottles

Because being eco-friendly is all the rage these days and buying plastic water bottles is too expensive anyways

6. Pyrex Containers

Stealing food from the dining hall for every meal would just be so much easier.

7. A Coffee Maker

No more having to pay the high costs for your caffeine fix at on-campus cafes.

8. In-N-Out/Dominos/Other Establishment gift cards

Because late night food runs are always a yes.

9. Socks/Underwear

"I always lose my stuff in the laundry machine, Mom!"

10. Earplugs

No more having to deal with loud study rooms or annoying roommates at night.

11. A Wall Calendar

Maybe you can start to get your act together second semester.

12. A Rechargeable Battery

For when your phone is dying and you're at the library or too far away from the charger while on your bed.

13. A Bluetooth Speaker

Might as well get on equal ground with the people blasting music next door.

14. A Projector

So you can just watch movies in your own bed with your own snacks instead of paying the high prices at theaters for tickets and snacks.

15. Money

No explanation necessary.
