Sometimes as Christmas and other holidays are rolling around, we forget or have no idea what to get the people in our lives and there is a major pressure on having to find the perfect gift that suits each person. Well, you are in luck, as a college student, I have some ideas of what most other college students would want for Christmas since we all have struggled through walking to the cold, juggling 50 things at once, midterms after midterms, and now, finals week. We have gone from the bottom to the top on a wild roller coaster ride that is finally coming to an end for the next month.

1. Cabin Socks

Trust me, college students will be slightly more enthused about receiving the best socks ever than kids! For one, our feet are always cold, especially while walking in the freezing cold to class. An investment in nice, fuzzy, and cute socks is one of the best things ever that a college student can receive.

2. Picture Frame With a Picture

Memories!!! Who does not love looking at pictures and making their living space more welcoming with a nice photo of family, friends, or a significant other. Pictures are the perfect trinket to get someone to remind them that you are thinking about them!

3. A Cute Hat

Hats are the cutest winter accessory whether that be a winter hat or a baseball cap!

4. Giftcards!!

College students are broke and we love getting our daily cup of coffee and lunch on the go in-between classes. YUMMY!

5. Jewelry

As a girl, I love getting cute rings and necklaces to make my outfits look like I tried a little harder in my appearance than I actually did.

6. Hoodies

I don't know about you, but I live in leggings and sweatshirts. It is the perfect get out of bed outfit, studying outfit, and just overall tackling life/ the day outfit. Plus they are warm and Wisconsin is always cold, so you can see where I am going with this.

7. School Apparel

On Wisconsin, period.

8. Heated Blankets/Blankets

College students love feeling cozy and at home when they are studying, sick, or just trying to relax. Heated Blankets are a bonus during winter or when you are freezing and all your other roommates are warm.

9. Hydroflask

Hydroflasks are the best water bottles out there. Walking class to class and being gone for most of the day, this water bottle keeps your water cold hours upon hours. And plus they are super reliable and stylish.

10. Airpods

These headphones are 100% worth the price. They come in handy while working out, studying, and walking to class without having to work around the headphone cord.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
