Graduation time is just around the corner for UW '18 grads. Some might feel exhilarated for the real world and others just excited about the gifts. Can't blame anyone for being terrified of the real world, numbing the truth of responsibility can be a great idea for them now.

On the other side, being the gifter can be a lot of pressure too, so we got you covered with this list of what to get for a college graduate:

1. Personal coffee maker with a mug

Isn't this just perfect? They don't need to pour their coffee into another mug or cup later. Don't have to be scared of spilling coffee because of this coffee maker on the go.


2. Water bottle with a motivational quote

The importance of water is vital, so remind them on the daily that wellness is important too!

3. Money

This gift can't get any better- recent grads would absolutely love this gift.

4. To-do list board

Life can be pretty hectic after graduation, but this weekly planner will help them get organized and prepare them for the week ahead. The fact that this is a board makes it harder to ignore, so they won't forget that they have errands to do.

5. Crying Pillow

Life can also be stressful at times but with this crying pillow, they might be reminded that it is okay to cry too!

6. Fancy car


Who doesn't love this gift? Other than helping them out in the real world, you help them to find mates too. What a combo!

7. Comfortable mattress

With the stress that a recent grad might have the real word, you can help them to fall asleep faster and better. Quality of sleep means a better mood throughout the day!

8. Beats headphones

Going to make them feel upbeat. It makes you feel like you want to dance every day.

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.

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.
