20 Gifts All College Students Want For The Holidays

Dec 01, 2015

With the holidays around the corner, us college students need to start thinking about gifts we would like from our relatives! Here are 20 awesome gifts all college students want for the holidays!

1. Food- Your snack selection at school running low? Perfect opportunity to get some more Mac and Cheese cups and Oreos!

2. Money- We're college students, we are broke. We spend money on almost anything and everything! A couple extra $20s wouldn't hurt!

3. New Laptop- Instead of using your 4yr old Dell laptop, upgrade to a Mac or HP!

4. Netflix- Netflix is great for lazy Sundays, or any other day. Perfect for binge watching new shows and procrastinating!

5. Apple TV- On top of the awesome selection on Netflix, an Apple TV gives an even wider range of movies and shows to watch!

6. New Wardrobe- From sweats to going out clothes, there's always room in our closets for more clothes!

7. Speakers- You need pumping speakers to blast tunes around the dorm room or apartment before nights out.

8. Hands Free Segway- Who doesn't want to ride around campus in one of these!

9. Huge Beanbag- "A second bed" in the common room or another place to crash after a long day.

10. Beer Pong Table- It's college, things happen.

11. Cards Against Humanity- The inappropriate version of Apples to Apples is always a great game to play with friends at college.

12. Mattress Pad- College mattresses are filled with springs and super uncomfortable. A mattress pad can make those sleepless nights go away!

13. Portable Phone Charger- When your phone is constantly dying while you're out or in class, a portable phone charger will come in handy.

14. Dunkin Donuts Gift Cards- "Everybody runs on Dunkin!" This is very true. We need Dunkin and don't want to spend our own money on Dunkin so gift cards are perfect!

15. Keurig- Almost every college student lives off coffee. A Keurig would save one a trip to the dining hall or library to get a cup of coffee!

16. Personal Chef- When the dining hall food just isn't calling your name, having a personal chef who can whip up anything your heart desires!

17. A Maid- Cleaning your room Is such hassle, a maid can do all our choruses while we "study".

18. Clean Shower- No more hair clogging the drain! We need a clean space to shower and sing our tunes in peace.

19. Summer- All we need right about now is for school to be out and to get summer back; we're sick of this school thing already!

20. Better Grades- The phase "C's get degrees" cant actually happen because our parents would kill us, so please lets pray for better grades!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
