With the holidays coming up, I decided to take a poll of students across campus. My results came from sorority sisters, classmates, a couple of professors that overheard the questionnaire, and even a few strangers. The feedback I got back was unanimous: it is true that every college student wishes for the majority of the same things, especially at this point in the year.

First semester is coming to a close, and let's be honest, we are all hanging on by a thread. Whether our grades are as exceptional as our parents wish for or not quite up to par, we can all agree on a few things we'd like to see Santa deliver this year.

1. "Real food, not ramen."

I'm talking a home cooked meal. No "vent before microwaving" instructions or loosen powder to sprinkle in the lukewarm water paired with boxed noodles.

2. "Netflix, without the chill. And my own account."

Let's be honest, Netflix is the best when watched alone. You only have so much time to binge watch "Orange is the New Black" and "Scandal" on your own, much less with someone else. We're all guilty of logging on to that one friend's Netflix account and bumming off of their subscription until too many log on and we all get kicked offline.

3. "More than $5 in my bank account."

I hit my all time low of 34 cents left in my account, last week. Some extra cash in my stocking would be great, Santa.

4. "To abolish all of my parking tickets."

Staff parking -- basically, you know you'll get a ticket if you park here, but you really just do not care. There's nowhere to park behind the dorms and you're in a hurry.The result -- six parking tickets. The worst part about parking tickets is that you can only use an excuse once, and more than likely you'll only be allowed one ticket taken off of your account. Take it from me, the ol' "I didn't know I parked in staff" isn't as effective as it sounds.

5. "Clean laundry."

The pile rises every day. Quarters are nonexistent and that one guy down the hall never remembers to take his clean clothes out of the dryer. The struggle is real.

6. "Good grades on finals."

Most of us are numb at this point due to the caffeine overdoses and lack of sleep. The terms on each study guide from different classes are starting to run together, and the hardest part of the day is deciding which final to study for first and for how long.

7. "The body I had in high school."

This is definitely one of my favorite answers because almost 75 percent of the girls I interviewed answered with this first. If you don't believe in the freshman 15, then you haven't been witness to the food we eat at the sorority house for dinner every night. And let's not forget the late night Bin cheese fries. Stress is a huge contributing factor to the amount of food being consumed, and we've all just completed on of the most stressful semesters of our lives.

With less than 20 days until Christmas, we've all got gifts on our minds. This year, however, we'd prefer less tangible objects as opposed to the gift cards from Grandma. College students are making Christmas shopping easy. This year, this is the only list you'll need, Santa.
