Myabetic. Pretty much anything from this website is ideal. They have cases for a variety of your diabetes needs, cooling pouches for those of us on injections so we can keep our insulin cool, T-shirts, Dexcom accessories, and Tandem accessories. I have the Banting wallet in purple (which I absolutely love) and the Marie Diabetes mini Crossbody in black which is basically a wallet and the Banting combined for the perfect night-out purse.

Prikkedief. This is a company based in the Netherlands, but their diabetes supplies are seriously to die for. They have clutches (which are basically the same as Myabetic’s clutches) and wallets, jewelry, pump and sensor covers, clothes, and posters! I recently ordered the Medtronic 630G gold sparkle pump cover and I cannot wait until it comes in the mail! If it's not in English at first, go down to the very bottom of the website to choose the right language.

Etsy. This website is my go-to for anything crafty, but I had no idea they had so many awesome diabetes accessories! I just ordered this super cute thigh band for my pump, and I am hoping to get this running belt as well (I mean, I don’t run, but if I ever want to run with my pump and some glucose tabs, I can). They have jewelry, clothes, bags, journals, stickers, pins, and so, so much more. All you do is search “diabetes,” “type one diabetes,” or “diabetic accessories” and you’ll get hundreds of hits on super cute, fashionable, and handmade items that any diabetic will no doubt love.

Lauren’s Hope.This company has medical ID jewelry that is just the absolute cutest. They have jewelry for men, women, and kids, and they have so many different styles suited for all kinds of different activities. Seriously, just shop around on this website for a bit and fill up that shopping cart because not only will these cute little accessories save your outfit, but they’ll save your life, too.

Journals. We all know how constantly busy and hectic a diabetic’s life is, so spoil them with a nice planner to keep them up to date with appointments and to help them get on a schedule to reduce the stress in their life. This website has some fantastic ideas for planners for all sorts of people, depending on their preferences. Personally, this one is a total dream for me, and the fact that I can choose which size and how the pages look is a big plus for me.

Pretty much anything cute and stylish, yet also functional, will be much appreciated from the diabetic in your life. Go on and impress them with your thoughtfulness!

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

Being a music major is not all kicks and giggles. In fact, there are days when I question my sanity and doubt myself as a musician. I know I am not the only one going through the struggle, and so here are 13 GIFs that I know my fellow music majors can relate to...
