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.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
