How To Wrap Your Presents Like A Pro

Wrapping is probably the most tedious part of giving a present. Over the years, I have become the wrapper of my house. Usually, I end up wrapping the presents my mom gives me, my sister, and my dad, plus all of the gifts I am giving, and then the gifts my dad gives to my mom. Doing that plain old wrapping style can get pretty boring, so I am introducing you guys to ugly Christmas wrapping. But before we can get to that eclectic style, I am here to show you guys how to wrap the most basic items.

I will start off with Cactus Dryer Helpers from Kikkerland and then I will wrap a mug from Starbucks. After those, we will use the ugly Christmas wrapping design to wrap a Bark Box.

If you are looking to purchase a present for someone, check out my article on gifts that I think you should be giving this year here.

If you are wondering what soundtrack I used for this video, check out the Alvin and The Chipmunks Christmas album, but the original Chipmunks, not the new ones.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
