As college students with finals being in the front of our minds, we tend to forget about Christmas. Or rather, we only get excited about Christmas because it means going home, and we forget about getting gifts for the rest of our family, so it's put off until the last minute. What do we end up getting last second?

Mom: A candle. Nothing says "I love you" like letting her know that the house smells bad and needs to be improved upon. Besides, this one smells better than the other 15 ones you've gotten for her in the past. And nope, none of your siblings will think of this either.

Dad: Some sort of power tool or outdoorsy tool. Yes, Dad, I love doing yard work with you! Let me buy tools to help with all of that. Oh wait, I have to help too?

Sister: Nail polish. Or something that I would rather have for myself so I can steal it from you. Nail polish is just the go-to for your sister. Those are some of the best memories you have together, so why not buy her just another shade of hot pink nail polish? She'll love it.

Brother: Random obscure t-shirt. Brothers are so hard to shop for, no matter the age, but they end up loving some random thing that year that they'll sell a t-shirt for. "The Walking Dead"? I'll take two.

Cousin: Literally anything. Cousins are those people that you have to buy something for, but you forget anything they like because this is the first time you'll see them this year.

Grandma: Random cute homey thing. You know what I mean, just something homey and cute that you'd find walking through the aisles of the home department at Macy's. You know she may already have it, but you have no clue what that device does, so you buy it anyways.

Grandpa: Food. We always bought candied nuts for my grandfather, and he seemed to love them. As well as gift cards to restaurants or other food-related things. Man's gotta eat.

Aunt: Whatever's on your own Christmas list. C'mon, you know that your aunt is hip enough to love whatever trend's out there right now, and she's down for the coolest new thing.

Uncle: Season of whatever new show's on DVD. Uhh, what's that show he watches again? Is there a book that goes with it?

Here's to another year of buying them the same thing -- I guess it'll do.
