5 Things College Students Actually Want In A Care Package

What college student doesn't love care packages from home?

Whether it's Halloween candy, Christmas decorations or Valentine's Day hearts, opening a box from Mom and Dad is something that brings a smile to anyone's face!

However, there are some things that cannot fit into a box or perhaps some things that will never be sent by UPS.

1. A hug from Mom.

Sometimes all we need is a long, warm hug from our mother to make our day better.

2. Alcohol.

Please, the bars are expensive.

3. "The Fairly Odd Parents."

Dear Cosmo and Wanda,

Please grant me the following wishes:

An extension from the professor on the paper I had two weeks to write and have yet to start the night before it's due.

Free college textbooks.

The ability to consume alcohol and not get a hangover.

A clone that can attend all classes for me, and the ability for me to telepathically learn it.

4. Money.

Seriously, I have $3 on my debit card.

5. Toilet paper.

Living on your own means having to buy your own toilet paper, which means stealing it from the campus gym locker rooms.

Go spread the word to your parents and hoping you have your ultimate care package waiting in your mailbox one day!
