The Perfect Gift To Get For Each Enneagram Number This Christmas SZN That Santa Would Approve

Ian Cron did a podcast on this very subject and instead of making you listen to the whole 40minute conversation I decided to give you my very best list so you can get something special for everyone on your list. On a side note, Santa is most definitely a two if you were curious. On now onto the presents.

1. The Perfectionist - a gift card to The Container Store

Giphy

The container store strikes a special chord with even the messiest and disorganized person there is. Therefore it is heaven for a one. Don't try to buy them what you think is best, they know better. You are the student, they are the master.

2. The Helper - A Cook Book

Giphy

A cook book allows a two to do what they do best: helping others by cooking them a nice meal. Plus it's low key a gift for you too. Everyone wins.

3. The Achiever - A 2019 Planner

Giphy

Threes are ambitious and goal oriented but sometimes can lack the organization and execution to achieve it. Therefore a nice planner is ideal. Sneak a peak at the planner that they use and get that. Don't try to get fancy and buy them a new brand. The three knows what they want and will return it.

4. The Individualist - one on one time

Giphy

Fours are often insecure about abandonment and if people truly understand there authentic selves. Therefore pick something specific that you know they enjoy and do it with them. This shows "hey, I know you" and "I want to spend time with you." Are they crafty? Take them to a ceramics class. Sporty? Try a yoga class together! Anything that involves being active is also super ideal because that helps get them outside of their feelings and into their bodies. So go show your moody four friends some extra love!

5. The Investigator - a day at the spa (alone.)

Giphy

Alone time is super important to a five. Therefore show them you care by giving them the best alone time ever. They will thank you later. So also a bed tent? Look it up. Only a five would like such a thing.

6. The Loyalist - fidget Spinner

Giphy

...... or something else that helps with anxiety or momentary stress (but personally I think the fidget spinner is superior). Sixes are some of the best friends ever, but they struggle with anxiety, stress, and doubt. This gift shows them you love them at their best and worst. Plus fidget spinners are just freakin cool.

7. The Enthusiast - Heelys

Giphy

Heelys and other toys that make you think "who thinks of this stuff??" are made specifically for sevens. Typically sevens are looking for the next adventure and fun experience that can take their mind out of the present. Sevens are typically stuck thinking of the next adventure before they can experience the joy of the present. Well now sevens can enjoy the present on the move.

8. The Challenger - A Kickboxing Class

Giphy

Eights have a little bit of a temper and aggression and if they can channel this side of them, eights become incredible leaders. So give your favorite eight the gift that keeps on giving.

9. The Peacemaker - A Moleskin Journal

Giphy

Sometimes nines are so worried about other people's feelings that they forget to think of themselves and their wellbeing. So giving a nine some time and a space for inner reflection is ideal this holiday season. This time can be stressful for everyone, but even more so for the caring nines in your life.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college 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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
