7 Necessary Outdoor Christmas Decorations

Christmas is fast approaching, and for those of you who haven’t decorated your place yet—and for those of you who may have forgotten a key decoration, this is for you.

1. Lights

This one might seem obvious, but you can never have too many lights on your house or trees. The more the merrier! You want to be the brightest house on your block.

2. Garland

Nothing says Christmas more than evergreen garland. It is beautiful and smells amazing. Make sure you put lights on your garland too.

3. Light-up Animals

There are so many light-up animals that need to make an appearance in your yard. From deer, to penguins, to cows, they are necessary.

4. Big Ornaments

They are so festive and look great in any type of tree. If you’re lucky, you can get some that light up!

5. Wreaths

Big or small, wreathes scream Christmas and can dress up any outdoor area. Put it on your door, the side of your house, or even a basketball hoop!

6. Ribbons and Bows

Ribbons and bows can make anything look more festive. From garland to light posts to wreaths, they can do it all.

7. Snowflakes


Whether you get light-up ones or not, they can add a little extra sparkle to your personal winter wonderland.

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
