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.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
