The holidays are quickly approaching, and it’s time to make your last-minute purchases. If you’re at a loss for what to buy your bestie now that you’re adults and it’s not as easy to just pop into Claire’s or the candy store, here are seven ideas for mature and meaningful gifts:

1. A book

A cookbook, facetious self-help book, inspiring non-fiction, or captivating novel are all perfect options. Write a sweet message on the inside cover for her to read in the years to come.

2. Tea and coffee

Pick up her favorite kind of tea or coffee, put it in a mug with a bow on top, and pair it with a tea diffuser or coffee press.

3. Bath elements

Get her a bathtub neck pillow, some salts and foamy bubble bath, and a little tray so she can have a snack, watch a movie, or read a book (maybe one you bought her?) while she relaxes.

4. Home accessories

A heavenly blanket and/or an adorable decorative pillow will be something she can constantly enjoy that will always remind her of you.

5. Something personal

Remember that hilarious inside joke, or that spontaneous weekend trip you took together? Buy something that encompasses the joke, make a scrapbook about the trip, or gather things from the trip and make a collage for her to hang up.

6. Music and movies

Buy her y'all's favorite movie to watch together, or a vinyl with the artist you love to listen to during your late night sleepover talks. Add some kettle corn and a cute popcorn bucket and you're set.

7. Jewelry

When we were in middle school, it was all about those split-heart "best friend" charm necklaces. Now that you're older, buy her something just as sentimental but more mature.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
