Dear Santa,
With the holidays fast approaching I've realized that I have neglected to write you my Christmas wish list! I've been a really good student this year. I've only had a few mental breakdowns (okay, more than a few), and my anxiety is practically gone (also not true). I know that these days, it seems that college kids have gotten more and more difficult to buy for! I thought I would help you out and write an ultimate gift list for any college student.
1. "Class is Canceled" Emails
I am honestly the happiest I have been in a long time when I wake up to see that class is canceled. It is even better when that is your first class of the day and you get to sleep in!
2. Not having to purchase required textbooks!
ESPECIALLY the ones that we never open after the first week.
3. Sleep
I'm not talking about the 5 minute naps we take between classes. I'm talking a full 8 hours (AT LEAST) with a comfortable bed, nice soft pillows and plenty of zzzz's.
4. Money
I mean, I don't need to be a Rockefeller, but I would like to be able to shop at classier joints than the Dollar Tree.
5. Puppy sightings on campus
Okay but Santa, do you REALLY understand how magical it is when you can spontaneously pet a dog?!
6. Food
But not like... food that comes with microwaveable instructions.
7. Every week to be syllabus week!
I don't mean to go over expectations for the entire semester, but I could really get used to having minimal stress!
8. A 4.0 GPA
I don't believe these exist in college. Please prove me wrong.
9. Getting able to get into all of the classes you need
Hallelujah! Scheduling classes can be like the Purge. Just once, I would like no hassle and to get into all the classes I need.
10. No Finals

Finals suck and make people cry.
11. To stop procrastinating
I can't study until I take this Buzzfeed quiz. It tells me what kind of cheese I am. I must know.
12. More sleep
I'm just really tired, okay?
13. Being able to shower without shoes
Is this the real life?!
Santa, any of these gifts would be perfect for any college student on your list. Just remember, especially after all of us dealing with finals week, we all could probably use a little sleep. Can't wait to see what goodies you've left me under the tree!
Merry Christmas!
