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.

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.
