Although everyone is different, there are certain things that, most if not all, girls can agree on. Especially as a college student, these 10 items are something that, in my opinion, every girl needs to be successful throughout their college career.

Endless amount of T-Shirts

T-shirts will become your favorite piece of clothing for class. They make your mornings easier and your days a little more comfortable. If you can buy them in all colors, oversized or fitted.

Cosmetic Organizer

The best way to declutter your bathroom or desk is by getting a cosmetic organizer. Not only will you have more room but you'll be able to see everything you have, cutting your getting ready time in half.

Leggings

You can NEVER have too many leggings. Try to get at least one legging per day and pairing them with one of your many colorful t-shirt and you won't even have to spend time thinking about what you'll wear in the morning

Mattress topper

Dorm and student housing beds will never compare to your comfortable bed from home. Nothing is worse than sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress. Mattress toppers will be more comfortable and it'll make you feel a little more at home.

Planner

As the semester goes on, it is very easy to unorganized. To avoid this it is best to buy a planner at the beginning of the semester and write down any important due dates so you won't miss them.

Full-body mirror

Whether you're in college or not, a full length mirror is a necessity in a girl's life, so one can get a full view of their outfit before they leave their home.

Tumbler

Tumblers come in handy for many reasons. Whether you're trying to wake up for the dreadful 8 am class with some iced coffee or you're just trying to stay hydrated throughout the day, you'll get good use out of your tumbler by the end of the semester. Plus it helps the environment.

Face mask

After long a stressful days filled with studying and assignments, all you'll want to do is stay home and relax. Although you can't see how much stress affects your skin, in the long run it'll become more obvious. Using a face mask every now and then can help your skin feel and continue to look fresh and rejuvenated.

Hair straightener or blow dryer

Just like the full-length mirror, a hair straightener and/or blow dryer is something every girl needs regardless if they're in college or not. Regardless if you just want to dry your hair or change your hairstyle these hair styling tools will always come in handy.

 Baseball caps

Last but not least, don't forget your favorite baseball caps. Although we would like to, not every day is a good hair day. So for those mornings that your hair is not cooperating, throw on a baseball cap and you're ready or class.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
