With Valentine's Day right around the corner, it is still not too late to find the perfect gift for your significant other! Of course, you could always do the same ole same ole, flowers and a stuffed animal, you could go above and beyond and surprise her with one of these 10 gifts!

1. Chocolate-covered strawberries

Who does not love chocolate or strawberries? Put those two things together and wa-la! You have yourself a happy tummy and a happy lady!

2. Jewelry

Everyone loves a sparkling charm to show off! Pay attention to that specific watch or pair of earrings she has been wanting, her face when she opens it will be well worth the expense!

3. D.I.Y gift

Every girl loves a gift made with thought and effort, make her something sentimental, it will be displayed for company to see until next year!

4. Coffee mug

Even if she does not love a fresh cup of coffee in the mornings she can still enjoy a nice cup of tea! A coffee cup collection can go on for a lifetime!

5. Breakfast in bed or her favorite candlelit dinner

Instead of going out in a crazy crowd or running her patience thin by waiting for a table, stay home! Relax, enjoy each other's company for the day, hassle free!

6. Pamper her

Set an appointment or two to get her nails or hair done! She will surely be surprised when you take her to her favorite salon or spa!

7. Go on a random road trip

Near or far, you both are together making memories to last a lifetime! You never know, maybe all she has been wanting is a little getaway!

8. Makeup

Every girl has her favorite shade of plump lip gloss or mascara that gives her lashes a little confidence boost! Show her you pay attention to the little things, especially the little things she loves the most!

9. Gift card

You can never go wrong with a gift card! It could be for any clothing store, makeup store, or even a restaurant! (I know I would not complain if I received a gift card for food! haha)

10. Photography session

You know she bugs you daily to take that quick selfie or mirror picture. Why not tell her to dress in her Sunday best and go get professional photos taken?! She will be in awe of you.

So gentlemen, put some thought into your gift this year. Make it one for her to never forget! A little effort goes quite a long way!

It's easier than you think.

Kansas State University

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
