It's the most wonderful time of the year...to watch Hallmark Christmas movies! We all know we watch them, and if you are anything like me, you watch from November 1st until the end of January.

1. Naughty or Nice

Holiday Scrooge, Krissy Kringle receives Santa's naughty or nice book and starts using it to her advantage. She starts exposing the naughty deeds of those around her, but soon finds that using the book's power isn't all so nice.

2. A Very Merry Mix-Up

Alice Chapman plans to meet her future in-laws at Christmas and, through a serendipitous series of events, spends the holiday with a warm and caring family whose son catches her eye. When she realizes her mistake, she is forced to make up her mind about who she loves.

3. Christmas With Holly

Traumatized by her mother's death, a 6-year-old Holly stops talking, but is cared for by her three uncles. The story unfolds as all of them find the importance of family and find unexpected love.

4. Help For The Holidays

Sara Vancamp is a bah-humbug mom with no Christmas spirit, unfortunately for her two children. Christine is an elf from Santa's village who wonders if there could be more to life than making toys in the North Pole, comes to the real world to help the VanCamp family rediscover Christmas spirit.

5. A Royal Christmas

Prince Leopold, heir to the throne of Cordinia, wishes to marry his young love Emily Taylor, a humble seamstress from Philadelphia. But Leopold's mother, Queen Isadora has other plans for her son.

6. A Carol Christmas

The ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future visit a humbug, nasty, talk-show host Carol and give her a chance to find some genuine holiday spirit before it is too late.

7. A Princess For Christmas

After losing her sister and brother-in-law, Jules receives an invitation of an estranged relative, and she travels with her niece and nephew to a castle in Europe for Christmas where she unwittingly falls for a dashing Prince.

8. Hitched For The Holidays

An attractive pair agrees to be each others supposed significant other throughout the holidays to keep their meddling families at bay. However, things end up escalating more than they had planned.

9. The Nine Lives Of Christmas

If you love cats and Christmas, then this is the movie for you. Two felines bring together strangers who are meant to be.

10. Matchmaker Santa

As a little girl, Melanie asked Santa for her Prince Charming, and no request is too big for Santa Claus. Melanie thought she found the man she wanted to marry, but Santa has other plans for her and intends to grant her wish all these years.

Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. You may want to revert back to watching your Christmas classics that you love so much, but adding a little bit of Hallmark flair can only make the holiday season better. (If that is even possible.)

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
