5 Stocking Stuffers That All College Kids Want

If you're looking for a stocking stuffer for a college student, look no further than these:

1. An iTunes gift card.

These are pretty easy to get, and they can get college kids more than you realize. When we need a new studying playlist or we need to buy a movie to watch one night when we don't feel like studying or doing homework, this gift will come in handy. Music when walking to class or working out is always a must, and this will be a game changer when a new album comes out on iTunes that everyone wants.

2. Food. Anything food.

Nonperishable food that we can take back to school and eat over the course of the semester is more valuable than you'd think. Having a set amount of meal swipes is one of the biggest struggles when it comes to college, and having little snacks to eat if we run out of meal swipes is one of the most important things to have in our dorm room. Don't underestimate food. It's important.

3. Wall adhesives and small decorations.

You can never have too many wall adhesives. Command hooks and sticky tack are holding up everything in my room, plus a few hooks and things. But wall adhesives are super important, and to go along with wall adhesives, little decorations to hang on these hooks are an important part of any dorm room. The decorations help make your dorm room unique to you, and they help make you feel comfortable.

4. Cozy, fuzzy socks.

Fuzzy socks are a must, especially during the end of the fall semester and in the beginning of the spring semester (that would be January). They give your feet and your toes a little blanket to feel warm and cozy in, and they make me really happy. For bonus points, get ones with crazy designs on them. We love them.

5. Money. Anything monetary.

Honestly, anything involving money is greatly appreciated. Our favorite places to get gift cards to usually include Wawa, Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts, and Amazon, but a plain Visa gift card will do just fine. The term "broke college kid" is real, I can tell you that. Any gift that we can get is great.

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.
