If a little decorating isn't involved, the holidays just don't seem the same. I get a little disappointed walking through the halls of my dorm without seeing a single wreath or string of lights. I'm not the only college student, hopefully, that feels this way. And while I love traditional decor, this year I'm really loving the bohemian-holiday look. Although some of these look a little complicated, you can DIY these yourselves pretty easily.

Glitter Branches

What you need: Sticks, spray adhesive, and glitter

Lay down some wax paper or something else to contain the glittery mess, and then sprinkle a whole lot of glitter across the surface. Spray the branches pretty heavily with the adhesive and then roll them across the glitter until completely covered.

Embellished Stockings

What You Need: Stockings (preferably non-traditional looking), tassels, jewels, pom poms, sequins, bells, etc., and hot glue

Gold-Dipped Feather Garland

What You Need: Feathers, gold spray paint, spray-on adhesive, and gold glitter

Place feathers on a piece of cardboard and spray top 3/4 with the gold spray paint and let dry. Then spray adhesive to top 1/4 and sprinkle glitter until fully covered.

What I've Learned About Friendship During My First Year Of High School

Friendship isn't always as easy as it's made out to be.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

25 Things I Want My Younger Cousins To Know

A little advice for my original best friends

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
