A Gift Guide For Every College Student You'll Ever Meet

1. The Preppy: Vineyard Vines Whale Logo Cap, $25

We all know that Vineyard Vines is the epitome of classy. Get this for your favorite country-club going, golf-playing friend. The cap comes in a wide variety of colors, from turqoise to pink to navy, making it perfect for a guy or a girl.

2. The Jokester: Brookstone Bathroom Golf Game, $19.99

Next time you're in the bathroom, you don't have to play a game on your phone- you can play one right at your feet! The set comes with a "contoured polyester putting green, plastic putter, two plastic golf balls, and a plastic flag."

3. The Techy: Waterproof Bluetooth Shower Speaker with LED Lights, $20

This gift is perfect for the techy in your life and turns every shower into a karaoke party. Complete with LED lights, this speaker is amazing for those gross dorm showers. Added bonus- since the speaker actually answers phone calls, you can now call your mom AND shower at the same time!

4. The Girly-Girl: Smashbox Try It Kit, $18

This gift set comes with all the basics in cosmetics- a neutral, rich eyeshadow trio, foundation primer, foundation primer, and mascara that promises "no clumps. no flakes." Ideal for the girly-girl in your life, and budget friendly.

5. The Party Animal: Engraved Shotglass, $7

This gift is inexpensive and is a great combination of thoughtfullness, class and humor. Next time your party animal friend is guzzling down their fav tequila/vodka, they can do so in style with their very own monogramed shotglass. Want more? Get a pack of six from Nordstrom here.

6. The Sports Fanatic: NFL Printed Fleece Blanket, $10-$50

Your fav #1 sports fan will be warm and cozy next time they watch their #1 team, whether from their couch or the stadium. However, if your friend is more into other sports, check out these MLB, NHL and NBA ones.

7. The Witty One: Get Your Shit Together Notepad, $6.50

Just like your friend, this notepad is straightforward, blunt and to the point.

8. The Germaphobe: UV Toothbrush Holder Sanitizer, $13

Your friends will thank you endlessly when you present him/her with this. The sanitizer supposedly kills "99 percent of germs, bacteria and mold."

9. The Athlete: Stamina Elliptical Trainer, $69

This is perfect for your friend and will soon become their newest workout obsession. The portable, lightweight elliptical trainer doesn't require a gym and allows you to work out in your own home, right in front of the TV. It is also easily storable, so basically perfect for someone living in a tight, cluttered dorm room whose too lazy to walk to the gym.

10. The Foodie: Munchpak Snack Pack, $35+

Munchpak is the foodie's ultimate dream. The company delivers snacks from all over the world straight to your doorstep. The most affordable option is the Munchpak mini with a three month subscription, which sends your recipient five full snacks for three month. What's more, you're able to customize a munchpak to your preference (for an additional price, of course).

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
