11 Things To Put In Your Favorite College Student's Easter Basket

Some geode bath bombs are a must.

Easter Basket

We're in college. We have no money, but we do have you. While we won't be able to get you much, we'd love if you could get us any of these things (especially number 11).

1. Candy

Facebook

Throw in all their favorites! I'd bet money that almost every person loves Reese's cups, KitKat bars, and M&Ms.

2. A cute ring dish

Instagram

Make it personal to them! I love cats so I would die if I received a cute ring dish like these ones! If they love flowers, find a floral one! If they love geometric shapes, look for one like that!

3. Gift cards

Facebook

We college students are broke. While we know you don't like giving us cash because who knows where we will use it, give us a gift card instead! A gas card, grocery card, or gift card to our favorite store would do wonders for us!

4. A spring themed water bottle

5. Easter themed socks

Everybody loves socks!

6. A little prayer box

If you're like me, you refuse to spend money. I'd never buy myself something so cute, but I've always wanted one so badly!

7. An embroidery set for beginners

Amazon

We'd love yet another thing to distract us from doing our homework.

8. Some geode bath bombs

Etsy

Again, we'd love to have cool stuff like this but we cannot really afford it. If you threw one of these in our basket, we would love you (more than we already will) forever!

10. Flowers

Facebook

It's always a nice gesture to have some flowers in the basket!

11. A rescue cat to add to the family

Instagram

Leave all the of the above behind and just put a cute cat in (or near) a basket. That would be the best Easter gift ever. Have fun topping that!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
