What To Get My Friends Who Deserve The World For Christmas

If you are like me, you've got some pretty great friends out there. You have some that you don't normally talk to every day but they're still in your corner. Then you have those friends who are your ultimate ride or die, those who have been by your side since day one, those who know everything about you, even things you don't even know about yourself. And regardless of which of these two extremes you consider all the people on your friend's list, you would still die for each and every one of them.

With the holidays fast approaching, you start to think about what can you possibly get these special people in your life. If you're anything like me, trying to find gift ideas for friends poses several question marks. Your friends truly deserve the whole world, but unfortunately, your bank account says otherwise.

You are suddenly hit with so many options.

Do you take the time to make a homemade gift or decide that it takes too much effort and settle for buying one (If you're anything like me, you have zero artistic ability, no matter how hard you try). Do you go all out and splurge on that new Amazon Echo that they've had their eye on or choose something less extreme, like a candle? Do you look for a Christmas-themed present or one that they won't use only once a year? Do you keep an eye out for a cute sweater or decide that clothes are too overrated of a gift? Do you ask what they want and get them exactly that or do you surprise them?

So many questions go into buying the perfect gift for all the important people in your life.

There are some things that your friends deserve that you just can't buy with money. If only we could buy all their problems and fears away. If only we could buy that one thing that would make them tear up with joy. If only we could buy them all the love and happiness in the world, because, let's face it, they deserve just that.

There never seems to be a perfect gift for the friends in your life. If only that perfect gift could just show up at your door without a single question behind it.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
