Christmas music!

I love listening to Christmas music and everything about it. It's only around for a month and a half so why not listen to it as much as possible and sing my heart out. I especially love Pentatonix Christmas albums :)

Christmas movies!

Because it just wouldn't be Christmas if you don't watch Elf and every other Christmas music or episode ever made.

Christmas Eve

Around the time I was a freshman in high school, our family began a new tradition of making a big Christmas Eve dinner. Each person in the family would be responsible for a dish, and we would spend most of the day in the kitchen. Then go to Christmas Eve Mass, put the finishing touches on the meal, and sit down and enjoy. We then usually open one gift and watch Christmas specials.

Christmas Break

Who doesn't love leaving school and just being off for 3 or more weeks? Especially since it's Christmas time!

Typical Stairs picture

Every year when my siblings and I wake up, we all wait by the stairs before heading down, and my mom has to get the usual Christmas stairs picture. We’re all in our 20’s except for my little brother, and I still get excited for it.

Seeing my little brother's reactions

My little brother is 9 and I love seeing the excitement on his face Christmas morning, and how it lights up each time he opens up a new present

Seeing family

Christmas is one of the times of the year that you get to see your family that you may not see all the time.

Building Snowmen/Playing in the Snow

I love snow. I love playing in it, having snowball fights, building snowmen and forts, everything. It is so much fun to play in!

All the Hot chocolate I could ever want

Hot chocolate and winter just go together so well. I go through so much hot chocolate, it's insane. Whether it's the normal milk chocolate type, white chocolate, peppermint, I love it all.

Christmas decorations

I love decorating for Christmas, setting up the tree, putting up lights. Everything. My dorm room has lights hanging right when you walk in, and a little tree that has ornaments and lights. I love to decorate for Christmas.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
