10 Festive Jams To Put You In The Christmas Spirit

Now that the stress of finals and the chaos of the end of the semester has come to an end, it's finally time for Christmas. Break out the tree, string the lights, and throw on an ugly sweater because it's time to get festive. Sure baking gingerbread cookies and wrapping presents may put you in a Christmassy mood, there's nothing that can get you into the holiday spirit better than a few Christmas jams. So here's a list of what I think are the top 10 Christmas songs.

1. "Baby, It's Cold Outside" by Kelly Clarkson and Ronnie Dunn

This song's just a classic. And it makes me want to watch "Elf." It's impossible to listen to this and not want to sing along.

2. "Merry Christmas Everyone" by Shakin' Stevens

3. "White Christmas" by Michael Buble

This is by far the best version of this song I've ever heard. 10/10 would recommend.

4. 'Oh Santa!" by Mariah Carey

This song is SO fun to dance to! It's very upbeat and exciting! Definitely gets you ready for the holiday.

5. "Santa Baby" by Kylie Minogue

Another classic. Self explanatory.

6. "The 12 Days of Christmas" by Straight No Chaser

This isn't your ordinary version of the 12 days we all know so well. Straight No Chaser is an acapella group that makes this holiday classic into something even more fabulous while adding some comedy in the mix. If you haven't heard it yet, go listen to it NOW!

7. "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" by Michael Buble

I love this song and Michael Buble way to much to not include it on the list.

8. "Santa Tell Me"' by Ariana Grande

The addition of this song onto the list may make me sound like a basic white girl, but its a darn good festive song.

9. "Mistletoe" by Justin Bieber

Another basic song, I know. But it's every girl's dream and a very catchy song.

10. "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey

Yes it's overplayed, but it wouldn't be Christmas without this song.

So grab some eggnog, sit back by the fireplace, and let these songs put you in a holly jolly mood.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
