6 Gifts to Get Your College Aged Boyfriend

With the giving season approaching, most girls are shopping for Christmas gifts for their man child that they call their boyfriend. Now, if these women are anything like my girlfriend, they're probably out shopping for clothes to dress their boyfriends in only to see those clothes in the back of his closet come the week after Christmas. When it comes to guys, unless we specifically ask for clothing, it's the biggest let down to get clothes for Christmas. That being said, Christmas gifts are not the same unless some love and care are put into the gift. So, here are some gifts you may want to consider getting the guy who puts up with your wonderful self.

1. Custom Beer Pong Table

This one will take a little time, but that's why this article is coming out now. You will need the following:

-Collabsible folding plastic table (found at Walmart, Target)

-Sand paper (heavy grit at first working down to lighter grit)

-Spackle (optional for filling in any logos)

-Paint (*painting skills)

-Epoxy

Follow the same steps you would for making a cooler, but just apply it to the table.

2. Custom Cooler

Coolers aren't just for formal any more. There's a lot of reasons to get him a custom cooler for Christmas. For example, you started dating after formal. If you really want to get creative and put him to shame with your engineering skills, mess that thing up with a sound system and aux port.

3. Noise Cancelling Headphones

Get him some noise cancelling headphones so he can drown out the haters and not be distracted by the chick over there who is obviously trying to get his attention. Also, you can admit that every once in a while you do snore and it's really been affecting his sleep.

4. A Venus Fly Trap

Figure out how good of a father he will be by seeing how long he can keep something alive other than himself. Plus, it'll take care of all the flies that are flying around the trash can that hasn't been taken out for the past 3 weeks. Also, as far as plants go, Venus Fly Traps are cool AF and he won't get too much trouble from his friends for having a plant.

5. Custom Sport's Jersey

This is the one bit of clothing every guy will gladly take without specifically asking for it first. If you are just trying to get him something nice, get his favorite player on the back or customize it with his name on the back. If you are a little obsessive, get yourself one with a couple's customization on the back.

*Not guaranteed he will be as enthused about the couple's customization

6. Alcohol

Put your own touch on it and craft on the alcohol or find a fun way to put it in a bucket or basket. He may not enjoy the crafts immediately but if he uses enough of the gift in a short period of time, he'll be guaranteed to love it.

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.
