Once our finals are done, we college students are heading back home for so much needed rest! We have been working and studying non-stop! We love being at college but we need a little break. While you may be thinking about what to get the college student in your life during the holiday season, I'll remind you that not all good gifts require spending money. There are 5 perfect gifts that are MOSTLY free.

1. Sleep

If you love them, let them sleep. Let them sleep until 2 in the afternoon if they want. They are tired! They have had a long semester and winter break is our chance to hibernate.

2. Love

This one is an easy one!

3. Food

Okay I know food is not free but you have to have to eat too, so you might as well get your college student something too! You know we don't get as many home cooked meals as we used too!

4. A roof over our heads

Thanks for not getting rid of our rooms! Although we are not home for most of the year, having a room to go back to and bed to sleep in is always nice.

5. Chauffeur service

Yes, we know that cars come with a lot of expenses like gas and insurance, but sometimes we are lazy. And yes, that means we don't want to drive even though we have our license. Offering to drive us somewhere is a really nice gesture and a good way to spend time with us!

All five these mostly free gifts will let your college student know that they love them! They are simple and don't cost a dime!

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. 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.

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.
