5 Christmas Gifts College Students Need

We all know we need them, but we don't want to ask.

Christmas is right around the corner. Waking up early on christmas morning as a little kid was the best thing ever. You have so many presents, and you get the gift that you always wanted. The older that we get, the less presents we get. We don't know if it's because we don't need the stuff, or that we already have it.

1. Socks

Maybe it's just me or something, but I always lose my socks. I have no idea why or how I lose them. I put them in the washer, then I put them in the dryer then they disappear. We all think that socks are such a lame gift, but truly that is something that we need. Fuzzy socks are the best socks to have, they are really cheap at Target. Since winter is here buy some long socks, and lots of fuzzy socks.

2.Undergarments

I don't lose these things like I lose my socks, but it's always good to have extra of them. You can buy them anywhere pick your place. Target, Victoria Secret, Aerie, etc. There is always sales at those stores, and it may sound like a weird gift, but the person will appreciate it. If you don't feel comfortable buying them, just get them a gift card.

3.USB Rechargeable Battery

This is probably one of the most useful things that I have ever heard of. Being able to carry around a small pack and you can plug your usb cord to charge your phone.


4. Keurig

Let me tell you from personal experience, It is so much easier to go to Starbucks to get your coffee. However, that adds up, if you go to Starbucks twice a day you are blowing your money. It may take some time out of our day to make your own coffee with a Keurig, but at least you are saving money. Saving money is really important as a college student, because our money disappears so fast.


5.Multi Charging Station

Being able to go anywhere, and charge up to 5 devices at one time comes pretty handy. It will come in handy when you are in the library, and you have to charge your phone, and your Ipad.


6. Money

I say money, because everything is so much more expensive in a college town. I could spend 60 dollars on some groceries, but back at home I would only spend 30. Whether if we are using our money for food, or gas to drive back and forth from home. Money is always useful and needed.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
