7 Gift Ideas For The Person Who Has No Idea What To Get Their Friends And Family This Year

In This Article:

Holidays are the best time of the year. It's where family and friends all come together to celebrate and have fun. But sometimes it can be stressful. Sometimes you're wondering what to get someone, but you're not exactly sure what they like (We've definitely all been there).

Of course, You can always, simply just ask them. However, it can sometimes be frustrating because the answer is "Anything." I can bet that a lot of you go through the same thing, or even have family members to whom you give this answer.

No worries. There are tons of ideas all over the place. You just have to look.

Heres a list of just a few to help you get started.

1. DIY

For me, (personally) this is one of the most fun, not only to make/ create and give but to receive. It shows how much thought went into the gift that is being given/received. If you're stuck, Pinterest has tons of good ideas to help you get started or to work from.

2. The classic gift card

For when you want to get someone something, but you're not really sure what to get them. THis can be both food or clothing and allows the person to get what they want.

3. College apparel

This could be a good gift for either you student (who goes to the school), parents (from the student), or a person who is a fan of the college.

4. Clothing, in general

closet

This is a good choice, especially if you know the person well or can ask a family member.

5. Flowers/candy/stuffed animals

Great gifts for mothers, grandmothers, girlfriends, or any other woman in your life.

6. Toys/dolls

doll

Of course, if your like me, these types of gifts probably don't appeal to you anymore, but if your giving to a young kid, toys are almost always the best way to go.

7. Jewelry

Another classic and great gift for the women/woman in your life.

Note that these are just some ideas to get you started on thinking about the holidays and by no means are the only ideas out there.

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.
