Now that Black Friday has passed, it is officially time to start (if you haven't already) your holiday shopping. The problem? Some of us are graced with the college student budget, which means that we don't have a ton of money to spend on presents. I have compiled a list of five gifts under $25 that any roommate, no matter her style or personality, would love to receive this holiday season.

Bite Beauty, The Perfect Bite Set from Sephora ($25)

This gift set is perfect for the lipstick lover in your apartment. With four creamy lipsticks that range from nude to pink and brown, your roommate is bound to love all of the shades included in this kit. A bonus: they taste like citrus!

Victoria's Secret PINK, Thermal Sleep Short ($22.95)

These sleep shorts have gained popularity on Twitter. Who doesn't want cute and cozy PJs? With different colors and designs with the famous PINK logo in silver glitter on the band, there is at least one that will jump out at you to get for your roomie. Pair it with a pair of fuzzy socks and you will get the "Best Roommate Ever" award.

Sugar Paper Blush Weekly Planner Agenda, 2017 from Target ($10.99)

Not only is this gift cute, but it is practical! Every college student knows that if you don't write down when assignments are due, most likely they will be forgotten about. Not only does this planner have monthly calendars inside, but it also has weekly calendars to write down what needs to be done down to the minute. Your roommate will love you because not only is this blush pink with gold details adorable, but she won't have to go out and buy herself a planner for the upcoming semester.

Plum & Bow Elephant Tea Mug from Urban Outfitters ($16)

Not only this is the most endearing mug ever, there is a little compartment to place a tea bag after your roomie brews her favorite tea. It is also dishwasher safe, so she can just throw it in with the other dishes and won't have to waste precious time washing it by hand.

Cup O' Coffee Face and Body Mask from Lush ($10.95-$19.95)

Everyone knows that coffee is the lifeline in college. Not only does this mask smell just like her typical morning cup of joe, it will scrub away any dry skin and make her skin glow naturally. It also cleanses impurities from the pores and is great to use for any skin type. She will thank you later.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
