Christmas is almost here, and with Christmas comes final season for already exhausted college students. With exam after quiz after paper after presentation as close as the end may seem to others, it always seems just out of reach for college students. And there are a few things these tired college students would appreciate for Christmas.

1. Heated blanket

Even if you crank the heat in dorms, there will be times where your room feels freezing. Help aid a tired college student's next comfortable nap by gifting them one of these this holiday season.

2. Bizzy Espresso Shots

From personal experience, coffee is one of the only things that gets college students through finals season. But sometimes you need a little something more. And Bizzy Espresso Shots are just the thing. Two shots of espresso packaged in a cute little bottle, the espresso shots work almost immediately and are effective for hours.

3. A pair of fuzzy pajama pants

Studying, and napping certainly, is much easier when you're comfortable. And pajama pants are the ultimate comfy clothing option. Bonus points if they're fuzzy.

4. Memory foam pillow

These pillows are like heaven. They offer the best support and comfort at the same time. But they are fairly expensive, and college students are fairly broke.

5. Cute coffee mug

Fun fact, you can mix those espresso shots in with regular coffee for an extra kick. And for some reason drinking coffee is, even more, fun in a fun mug. Help us wake up and enjoy it, give us a cute lil' coffee mug.

6. Dry shampoo

Showers are hard. And they take time. College students don't have tons of extra time, but we still want to look like a functioning human. And dry shampoo helps us meet in the middle on this issue.

7. K-cup pods

Okay, so maybe there is a theme of coffee on this list. But coffee is a big part of college life--especially for tired college students (aka every college student). And we can't really afford to buy a coffee every day, but I can guarantee that we either have a Keurig machine or know someone with one. Help us save money and our sanity by giving a few K-Cup pods in our stocking this year.

8. Melatonin

Melatonin is natural and helpful when it comes to falling asleep. As tired as we are, falling asleep can be one of the hardest things to remedy this. Thinking about quizzes and tests keeps us up at night. Sometimes we just need a little help.

9. A fuzzy blanket

This is different from a heated blanket, and the difference is very important. This blanket is for the days when your heater does decide to work. Naps are just ten times better with a fuzzy blanket.

10. Flannel sheets


These are a lifesaver in the winter. Although they make getting out of bed even harder in the morning, the toasty wonderfulness that they bring while sleeping makes it worth it.

11. Soup

It keeps us warm and also helps one fall asleep at night (or during the day. Honestly, you cannot go wrong with food of any sort.

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.

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.
