Amazon is filled with awesome, cute, and oddly useful little trinkets.

Here are 15 must-need (and cheap) products for college students:

1. Portable Speaker - $16.99

Everyone will need a battery reboot at some point during the year. Always be prepared with the cutest little portable power bank.

2. Quick and Easy Recipe Book - $7.69

Ramen and Easy Mac can get really old, really fast. Check out this recipe book for students to see what new and exciting meals you can make on a budget.

3. Post-it Dispenser - $15.85

If you have to go through a ton of Post-its, might as well make them look super cute - and what's cuter than a cat dispenser?

4. Himalayan Salt Lamp - $16.99

Himalayan salt lamps are known to ease stress and anxiety. Every college student knows that there's no escaping both of those, but a salt lamp is an all natural way to help (at least a little).

5. Multi-port Outlet Plug - $10.90

The struggle is real when you need to charge your laptop or phone and there are no more plugs open. Here's a product that lets you charge multiple things at once (including a USB charger).

6. Portable Bluetooth Speaker - $8.99

7. Infuser Water Bottle - $9.95

8. Cat Motivation Flip Cards - $9.88

Everyone needs motivation throughout the day - especially from some cute cats (who are super relatable).

9. Mini Flash Drive - $13.99

With a regular-sized flash drive, there's always a fear of it snapping off. With this little USB, you'll hardly realize you have it plugged in.

10. Agenda Notepad - $12.87

Everyone needs lists to keep them on track... This notepad does just that while channeling your inner mood.

11. Sunrise Alarm Clock - $10.99

It is proven that waking up to warm light makes it easier to wake up in the morning and gives you a smaller chance of stress during the day. Try out this light that stimulates a sunrise, a sunset, and has a built-in radio.

12. Microwave Cleaner - $2.88

When you're a college student, you barely have time to breathe - let alone clean out your microwave. But, with this gadget, cleaning has never been easier.

13. Adulting Stickers - $12.03

We used to get stars and stickers in elementary school - now, as upcoming adults, we can get more stickers for the things that really matter (example: putting on pants).

14. Cable Keeper and Phone Stand - $13.00

No more trying to untangle your cables! This plug doubles as a cord keeper and a phone stand for when you charge your phone.

15. Kanye West Coloring Book - $13.93

Coloring relieves stress - and so does Kanye West.

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.

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.
