Christmas Gift Essentials For Weirdos

Most people would enjoy a holiday scented candle or a pair of fuzzy socks for the winter season, but not me. I'd much rather receive a gift card to Chipotle. So here's some ideas on what to gift your friend if they have an unconventional taste in presents.

1. Tina Belcher Action Figure

Bob's Burgers is one of my favorite TV shows, and the obsession has gone so far that I've started calling myself Tina Belcher (peep my finsta). Receiving a Funko Pop Animation is more than what I needed this Christmas season. Bless my friends.

2. Homemade Guacamole

Guacamole is the bomb diggity, and if you disagree, you're wrong. Quite honestly, I'd appreciate a big bowl of guac with a side of Tostitos scoops.

3. Flamin' Hot Cheetos

Recently, I have become OBSESSED with Flamin' Hot chips. It's honestly a problem. My friends are concerned, but I just can't stop.

4. Slime

This one mostly applies to my weird friends who enjoy making different types of slimes and "thwacking" the squishy solid. To make this gift festive, try red food coloring with a clear sparkly glue.

5. Princeton Review books

With the AP and ACT season coming up, it's probably not a bad idea to start studying up now.

6. Chewing Gum

A pack of spearmint gum is essential for the school days, and if you chew as much as I do, you probably run out quickly and are always in need of more. So hook us up with that 5 gum fix.

7. Back Brace

My mom has already gifted me this because she says I have poor posture. I guess she's right. I do slouch a bit.


And there you have it. Just some random gifts that anyone with a cooky flare might enjoy. Happy Holidays!

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
