Do you ever feel lost? Like you're not sure which direction to take in life? Let's face it - sometimes we need help navigating this crazy thing called college. That's why I'm here. Consider me your third-party, impartial columnist. You have questions, and baby doll, I've got your answers. Or rather, I can provide my spin on things. So sit on down and buckle up, 'cause you're in for a big ol' Sass Attack!

If y'all finding yourself in a hardship, seek me out at entertainment@thetriangle.org. Make sure to put "ADVICE" in the subject line. I got your back, sugar.

I've been with my girlfriend for a while now and it's our first holiday season together. What should I get her for a present?

Tube socks? Naughty lingerie? No, no. I'm kidding - maybe. Well, I'm gonna suggest taking a more romantic road. Think about what makes your girlfriend tick. What would give her a warm, fuzzy feeling?

You've been together a while, so you should know her fairly well at this point. What is her greatest hobby? Say she is a runner: why not look for a great new pair of running shoes? Ok, so that's not totally romantic, however she'll use them often and each time she's lacing 'em up, she'll think about you.

Lets say she rides bikes and is obsessed with her super cool - insert bike name here - sorry, I ride horses not bikes. Why not buy her some biking accessory that will help her personalize her preferred mode of transport and at the same time put a little of you in her hobby. Whatever you do, make it fun, make it memorable, make it her - make it you!

I am going to a holiday party at a friend's parent's house. Should I bring something? What should I bring?

Excellent question. This time of year is littered with soirées dedicated to merrymaking and joyous celebration. You'll be in a room cheery with wine and spiked eggnog, with red and green fringe scattered about banisters and mantles, and the later-regretted kisses under the mistletoe. And although I didn't mention it, don't forget the extra five pounds you'll gain from all the cakes and cookies.
