10 Irrelevant Things You, A Broke College Student, Keep Buying
@naturallife / Instagram

It's not often that a college gal has extra money to spend, but what do I do when I have a solid $17 in my bank account... scroll through online shopping. I've created a pretty solid list of the 10 things you probably don't own but could spend a while on Amazon shopping for.

1. Car Coasters

Natural Life literally has the cutest, whoever thought of this is absolutely genius.

2. Bobby Pins

Literally, who can ever have enough of these! Always something to buy!

3. Lululemon

OK, don't hate me, but I kid you not these are just the best things you will ever put on your legs. Once you do, there is no turning back.

4. Chacos

I was never a Chaco girl, but these are just great to have for summer, the pool, and doing earthly things.

5. Boho Bandeau

Again, Natural Life killing the game with useless things. Seriously how cute though?!

6. Makeup Bags

Canvas Pouches could rule my world. I just can't have enough, they are too cute!

7. Little Prayer Box

These are available at T.J.Maxx and are a super cute place to store your prayers.

8. Sudoku Calendar

These are so cool and they have a sudoku puzzle for everyday!!

9. Wall Canvas

Who can ever have enough of these?? Wall canvases are my most favorite thing. I could unload at Hobby Lobby.

10. Mini Mason Jars

You can grow plants, fill these with hair things, or bucket lists. What else could one need!

So here is my irrelevant list of things you should currently online shop for instead of studying! I hope these things benefit your life like they have benefitted mine!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
