Do you procrastinate? Do you need a gift to give to your loved ones? If so, you came to the right place. I have combined a list of gift ideas to give to your mom, dad, friends, and relatives! They won't even know it was a last minute idea!

1. Swell Water Bottles

Honestly, these are the cutest water bottles ever! This water bottle keeps your drink hot and cold! The water bottles come in three different sizes, varying from $25-$45. Also, if you buy a swell water bottle, the company gives back to the community through UNICEF, American Forests, and Drink Up. The collections vary from galaxy, satin, glitter, stone, shimmer, and many more! Swell water bottles can be given to anyone, making it a great and unique gift to give.

2. Alex and Ani Rings

Alex and Ani is a company that sells eco-friendly jewelry and accessories. One of my favorite jewelry pieces to look at are the rings, which come in two designs: ring wraps and spoon rings. The rings are definitely one of a kind, and it is a great gift to give to your wife, girlfriend, or best friend!

3. Marble Sunglasses

Sometimes I get bored of wearing my regular Ray Ban sunglasses. These sunglasses are a perfect way to change things up a bit because the frame has a different look to it, and it makes your outfit more lively. These sunglasses can be bought anywhere, even Amazon! These sunglasses are a must buy!

4. Beats Wireless Earphones

Beats recently came out with one of the best gadgets, in my opinion, the wireless earphones, and it is so useful to have! Anyone would love to get this gift! It comes in 5 different colors, a battery life of 12 hours, and its WIRELESS!

5. ColourPop Makeup

So I saved the best for last! This company sells the best lip products because not only are they relatively cheap, but the quality of the products is amazing. Every you tube beauty guru loves them! I have a bunch of my own, so I can totally say first hand the lip products are the best. The colors are infinite, so it is definitely really hard picking out a few! Any girl would love to get them!

Now hurry before it gets too late!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
