These few things will make us insanely happy.
1. Sleep
I have not met a single college student that has a normal and healthy sleep schedule. The stuff pumping through our veins is more coffee and energy drinks than blood, at this point. We're exhausted, mentally and physically. So, give us a few extra hours of sleep, we'd really appreciate it. This isn't a tangible gift, but just keep this in mind when you want to call or text us at 7 in the morning during our winter break.
2. Money
Being a full time student doesn't leave much time for a job. And even if we do have a job, we're either working part time or are sacrificing our health, grades, and social life to work full time. A little extra money goes a long way, trust me.
3. Candles
Don't ask me why, but us college students are obsessed with candles. Maybe it's because lighting a candle makes us feel sophisticated and like we have our lives together...even if that's the furthest thing from the truth.
4. A Home Cooked Meal
I don't know many college students who are "Top Chef" material and even if they are, they don't have the time or the money to put those skills to work. Cereal, take-out, pasta, and frozen dinners are basically all our diet consists of.
5. At least one day that is free of responsibilities
Seriously, all we're asking for a is a break.
6. Money
Did I say this one already? Maybe the extra emphasis will get my point across.
7. Someone to tell us "I'm proud of you"
This might seem extremely cheesy, but being a college student isn't a walk in the park. It's stressful and it's exhausting, both mentally and physically. We're constantly hard on ourselves and we certainly don't hear the words "I'm proud of you" enough.
