5 Thoughtful Christmas Gift Ideas

As the Christmas season is coming around, I have come up with a few ideas to gift your friends and family! Happy Holidays!

1. Gift Basket

Whether it's a family member or friend, put together a few of their favorite things, wrap them in a basket, put some holiday decor around it, and you have a Christmas gift!

2. Mason Jar

This is always my go-to gift if I run out of gift ideas! I either put their favorite candy in the jar, or fill it with small goods such as giftcards, makeup, or snacks. If it's for your significant other, you could put handwritten letters and notes inside as well!

3. Picture Letter

Find a wooden cut out of the first letter of the person's first name and fill it with a picture collage! Put your favorite memories that you have with that person. Very memorable gift for anyone!


4. "52 things I love about you" cards

A cute and easy way to write the all the reasons why you appreciate them!!


5. "Open When..." letters

Write a letter for when they're sad, mad, happy, etc. (Any occasion really works!) This is a pretty time-consuming gift, but the receiver will love it because of the dedication and thought put into it!

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.

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.
