This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at VCU chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.
Just in case anyone is shopping for a certain college student this holiday season. Guaranteed, they will love you forever if you follow this simple guide.
 
1. Queso
 
 
Chips and salsa are optional, but also just as equally wanted and appreciated.

2. Adele’s new album

 

 

Because she’s back and just as beautiful (if not more) than ever and we worship her.

3. Gift cards.

 

Chipotle, Starbucks, Victoria’s Secret, Amazon, Target, iTunes. We’re poor/hungry and want new clothes/music without spending our own money.

4. Tickets to see Justin Bieber live in concert

 

Or any concert tickets, for that matter.

5. Blankets and other snuggly things

 

Because let’s be honest, winter break is for one thing and one thing only; catching up on sleep.

6. New pens/pencils/highlighters

 

 

One of the best feelings in the world is starting off a semester with brand new school supplies.

7. Things to make us smell good

 

 

Because some mornings we oversleep our alarms and don’t have time to shower before a full day of class.

8. Fandom merchandise

 

 

Decorating a dorm in your favorite Harry Potter/Supernatural/Gossip Girl/Doctor Who/One Direction, etc. paraphernalia is incredibly satisfying.

9. Wine

 

No explanation necessary.

10. Money

 

 

For the love of all that is holy, money.
