10 Irrelevant Things You, A Broke College Student, Keep Buying

It's not often that a college gal has extra money to spend, but what do I do when I have a solid $17 in my bank account... scroll through online shopping. I've created a pretty solid list of the 10 things you probably don't own but could spend a while on Amazon shopping for.

1. Car Coasters

Natural Life literally has the cutest, whoever thought of this is absolutely genius.

2. Bobby Pins

Literally, who can ever have enough of these! Always something to buy!

3. Lululemon

OK, don't hate me, but I kid you not these are just the best things you will ever put on your legs. Once you do, there is no turning back.

4. Chacos

I was never a Chaco girl, but these are just great to have for summer, the pool, and doing earthly things.

5. Boho Bandeau

Again, Natural Life killing the game with useless things. Seriously how cute though?!

6. Makeup Bags

Canvas Pouches could rule my world. I just can't have enough, they are too cute!

7. Little Prayer Box

These are available at T.J.Maxx and are a super cute place to store your prayers.

8. Sudoku Calendar

These are so cool and they have a sudoku puzzle for everyday!!

9. Wall Canvas

Who can ever have enough of these?? Wall canvases are my most favorite thing. I could unload at Hobby Lobby.

10. Mini Mason Jars

You can grow plants, fill these with hair things, or bucket lists. What else could one need!

So here is my irrelevant list of things you should currently online shop for instead of studying! I hope these things benefit your life like they have benefitted mine!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
