11 Stocking Stuffers For Creative People

Prinku

As a digital arts major, I know any artist would be happy with getting a drawing set for Christmas. However, I found a list of gifts from across the internet that go above-and-beyond the basic art set. These gifts are small enough to fit in a stocking and the prices range from $8-$49.95. They are great for writers, graphic designers, photographers, and pretty much anyone interested in art.

Hunter College

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

Tulane University

1282

People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

2626

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
