Finals just begin? Mom, Dad, or your best friend from high school thinking about sending you a care package? Slyly share this article on Facebook to drop all the hints you need to…
New Sweatpants
You can actually never have too many of these. And you're going to want to wear them all day. But you know, it'd be sanitary to have a new pair every day.
Coffee gift cards
Starbucks, Dunkin, Tim Hortons, or whatever shop is closest to you, get your GPA gas for free and worry about the exam, not the expenses.
Lunch gift cards
Stay out of the house and away from your bed! This is the one time you should be encouraged to eat lunch out for your own good. (But try to keep it healthy!) Some good spots at Ohio State where you can order something that will leave you feeling fresh are Pita Pit, Panera, Chipotle (if you order right!), and Berry Blendz.
Sports balls
On that health-nut note, encourage us to take a fun study break by throwing around a tennis ball in the study room with our friends, or tossing a football outside as long as our cold hands can take it to re-energize. Frisbees have always been a college staple!
Power food snacks
Any kind of nut, dried fruits, granola bars, homemade trail-mix, something to hold us over while we study and put off lunch and dinner to finish that damn paper.
Holiday movies
For when the storm passes, the snow sets in, and you finally get to chill-ax.
Reusable water bottle
I say specifically get one with a straw (reusable!). They're hard to clean if you don't have a dishwasher, but they're so much easier to continuously drink while you study, and hydration is super important to stay awake for long hours working.
Studying supplies
The fun ones! Colored pens, sticky notebook tabs, highlighters (the ones with the clear part of the tip, my guilty pleasure), a 2019 planner to get excited about, etc. Pick your poison!
Notes with everything you love about them
I know I'm not the only one who uses low grades and my malfunctioning ability to schedule out writing a paper against my self-esteem. Notes that personal, specific, and authentically your opinion of how awesome I still am will always help bring us back down to earth when our head goes crazy with self-loathing comments.
