As a prospective teacher, your wishlist never stops growing. All year long, you see things that could look so cute in your future classroom or help you stay organized in your future classroom. The time has finally come when you can share your wishlist with friends and family and hope for the best. If you're a future teacher, you need these 12 things on your wishlist ASAP.

1. A pretty, new set of pens.

So you can color code EVERYTHING, you know, the way it should be.

2. An agenda for the new year.

Your current one is probably beat up, so a fresh one will get you so excited.

3. A funny teacher wine glass.

One of the cutest items on your wish list, a wine glass like this is a must.

4. A cute coffee mug.

https://www.amazon.com/Rogue-River-Teacher-Novelty-Teachers/dp/B075CBF6LC/ref=sr_1_27_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1544670190&sr=8-27-spons&keywords=teacher+gifts&psc=1

While a wine glass is adorable and necessary, it's also important to have something to hold your coffee for those work appropriate beverages,

5. Signs for your future classroom.

https://www.amazon.com/JennyGems-Wooden-Box-Appreciation-Statement/dp/B074DH4W7T/ref=sr_1_38_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1544670190&sr=8-38-spons&keywords=teacher+gifts&psc=1

To spice up the place, or to make your desk more personal. Either way, these signs are a hit among teachers and make a great gift.

6. A teacher tote bag.

https://www.amazon.com/Essential-Personalized-Monogram-Shoulder-Hibiscus/dp/B07BBSNVMB/ref=sr_1_30_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1544670556&sr=8-30-spons&keywords=teacher%2Btote%2Bbag&th=1

Tote bags are a necessity to carry everything to and from school. Bonus points if it's monogrammed or personalized!

7. Ornaments.

https://www.amazon.com/Teacher-Crayon-Ornament-Kurt-Adler/dp/B00LLPLOF8/ref=sr_1_19?ie=UTF8&qid=1544670654&sr=8-19&keywords=teacher+christmas+gifts

It's never too early to start filling your tree with teacher ornaments.

8. Clothing to add to your teaching attire wardrobe.

If you're not officially a teacher yet, start stocking up on the basics when holiday sales are happening! Think business casual pants, cute sweaters, and more that you can ask for!

9. Teacher t-shirts.

https://www.amazon.com/DUTUT-Coordinator-Tshirt-Teacher-T-Shirt/dp/B07F5FZ2JJ/ref=sr_1_30_sspa?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1544671019&sr=1-30-spons&nodeID=7141123011&psd=1&keywords=teacher+tshirts&psc=1

Especially if you'll be teaching elementary school...these are too fitting!

10. Candles.

https://www.amazon.com/Best-Teacher-Candle-Natural-Handmade/dp/B07KTC68LV/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1544671168&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=teacher+candles&psc=1

Teachers love candles, so this is a fool proof gift that can do no wrong.

11. Insulated tumblers.

https://www.amazon.com/Burton-Tumbler-Teacher-Whats-Superpower/dp/B07822HJS3/ref=sr_1_8?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1544671247&sr=1-8&keywords=teacher+tumbler

Teachers can never have too many caffeine holders, am I right?

12. Art supplies.

Freshly sharpened color pencils or a variety pack of markers will do the trick.

The teacher or future teacher in your life would be thrilled to receive any of these gifts! After all, they've been compiling a wish list all year long!

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.
