10 Reasons to Hate Christmas

With Christmas literally just around the corner, I'd thought I'd share some thoughts. Christmas a time of year that just really gets me going. and you know what it probably gets you going too. So here are 10 reasons why I HATE Christmas.


1. There's too much happiness.

I don't know about you but when I come home for the holidays, I just want to be surrounded by sadness. Or anger maybe? It would be a good reminder of what finals week was like right before I came. But all the joy and happiness around Christmas? Ew.

2. Presents are literally the worst.

Like, who wants to express their love for their friends and family through gift giving? That sounds terrible. Who wants to see kids get excited over a new doll or toy? NO ONE, that's who.

3. Food, amiright?

I mean seriously guys! I'm trying to lose weight not gain it with all that super delicious food!

4. Christmas Movies. Enough said.

Why is it that we watch the same heartwarming, hilarious movies every year? WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?!

5. Decorations: What a hassle.

First you have to get them out.. then you have to decide where to put them... It's not really worth it for all the joy it brings.

6. Christmas Parties: Eh. Boring.


I'm only twenty, and nothing is fun when you're underage... not parties, not white elephants exchanges, not games with friends, not movies. NOTHING.

7. Christmas songs: Ba-Humbug

I think this goes back to the whole joy thing... nobody likes to be happy anyway.

8.Trees in general

Trees are a general nuissance and provide no extra love to the season. kthxbai.

9. Giving to others?!

Why would I want to help those less fortunate than I?

10. It's Jesus' Birthday Celebration? Actually no.

Jesus was born in the summer guys. Why do we celebrate this amazing gift in the WINTER


Guys, I hope you know, I'm just kidding, cause Christmas is amazing!

These are all the reasons I love Christmas. Merry Christmas, you filthy animal!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
