Buying Flowers For Christmas

A Student’s Dilemma

As students, we are constantly faced with certain limitations borne about by our personal situation. Most students are expected to exist and to live only to study (probably in one of Alabama's famous universities)– it is our mission and our goal is to graduate. The faster the better, of course. Most people do not realize that even as students there are certain things that we need – the most important of which is money. Money makes our education possible because even if we were scholars we still need the money for our everyday expenses and to pay for other school related purchases. Not to mention a student’s need for money for books and other academics related materials.

Affordable gift idea

Do not think that as students we are content enough to be cheapskates and freeloaders. We still have our reputation and self esteem to think about. This means that this coming Christmas we are not going to use the “struggling student” trump card in order not to give gifts to loved ones this season. Gifts need not be expensive, as so many people say. And as a student I firmly believe in that kernel of wisdom. It is the thought that counts, to quote another maxim. But even if we as students are not financially capable of giving expensive gifts it does not mean that our gifts should not carry any kind of emotional or sentimental weight. This is where flowers come in.

Flowers as a gift

I have been a student for the past three years and one thing that I have learned through all my years of working on a limited budget is that flowers are a perfect gift. They are quite affordable and you can get a great bouquet that would suit your budget, whatever it may be. This, I think is one of the best features of giving flowers. Flowers can easily fit your target budget because it is as easy as adding or subtracting a couple of flowers to fit into the price point you are looking for. It’s flexibility is not easily matched by any other gift idea. Secondly, flowers are one of the most versatile gift ideas out there – perhaps the most versatile.You can give flowers for whatever occasion – be it for a birthday, house warming, christening, a get well gift, or even for Christmas.
Flowers are also wonderful gift to anyone, especially to the most important people in your life. A flower bouquet to your mother, girlfriend or sister would be enough to put a big smile on their faces for the whole day. Women love flowers so it is a foolproof way of giving something that you know they will love. It is also a useful gift because the recipients of the flowers can display them to beautify a part of their house or room. And don’t think that men do not love flowers. I know for a fact that even dads and brothers appreciate flowers as gifts. I remember my aunt who received a wonderful vase filled with arranged flowers for Mother’s Day from her daughter. Upon seeing it, my aunt’s husband who is a carpenter and outdoorsman, loudly told my aunt that he hopes that on Father’s Day his daughter would also remember to send the same gift to him. I mean, who can say that they hate flowers, right?
