How Pinterest Can Help You Get Through This Holiday Season

With the holidays quickly approaching, many of us feel unprepared. Whether it is with what gifts to purchase for each family member, what to bring to the holiday party at work, or what is appropriate to wear; Pinterest is the perfect place to turn for your answers. Similar to Google, typing in just a few words can open up many possibilities.

GIFT GIVING

Whether you have a lot of money to spend, or hardly any Pinterest offers many gift ideas that you can purchase or diy. From the newest jewelry for moms to handmade bath scrubs you can easily find something for everyone.

HOLIDAY FOOD

Choosing what food to bring to any party can be very stressful, especially around the holidays because you want it to be perfect. Pinterest is a place where you can obtain recipes that are so easy that all you do is combine a couple ingredients and everyone will be in love with it and impressed with your cooking skills.

WHAT TO WEAR

Depending on what type of outfit you are looking for, maybe an ugly christmas sweater or a formal dress, Pinterest makes it so easy that once you see the outfit you want to buy you can simply click on the image and it will take you directly to the website you need to make your purchase and rock your holiday party.

HOW TO DECORATE

Decorations can be tough, because you either buy everything in the store and have no idea what to do with all of it, or you are on a small budget and still want your house to look festive. Pinterest is great for this because it features tons of ideas all with pictures showing you have a decoration would look in your house. It is also a great tool, because it has pins that involve low cost decorating or decorating with supplies that you already have.

HOLIDAY ACTIVITIES

Getting together with extended family over the holidays can either be really great or really awkward, so it is a good idea to plan out some activities for all ages to keep the party going.

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.

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?
