Christmas means Christmas movies. And Christmas movies mean cheesy Hallmark Christmas movies, at least to me and my family. While the classics like "White Christmas" and "A Christmas Story" are awesome, I love Hallmark Christmas movies.

When you watch a Hallmark Christmas movie you never expect to like it, you think, "Oh, this is kind of cheesy," but inevitably you get sucked in. I don't know what it is about them, but I always have to see how they end and I always leave satisfied.

If you have never watched a Hallmark Christmas movie before, take a look at this starter list and if you have, take a look back at some of your old favorites.

1. "Matchmaker Santa"

Dumb title, great movie. This is my sister's favorite Christmas movie. Basically, this girl is on the way to meet her boyfriend's family for Christmas but gets stuck in this small town with her boyfriend's best friend. Also, it has Lacey Chabert and any movie with her is great.

2. "Northpole"

This one is different from a normal Hallmark Christmas movie because it has magic and a real Santa. Of course, having her son's teacher as the love interest makes it fit the mold.

3. "A December Bride"

A fake fiancee movie. How much more do I need to say? Basically, this girl's cousin steals her fiancee and then she has to go to the wedding. While there the guy blurts out that they are engaged. The cousin sucks but you're supposed to like her for some reason, but overall an A+ movie.

4. "12 Gifts of Christmas"

Fun movie about a workaholic dude who hires someone to do all his Christmas shopping for him.

5. "A Princess for Christmas"

High key any Christmas movie that has a prince in it is pretty great, just saying.

6. "The Sweetest Christmas"

Another Lacey Chabert movie. Plus you love to hate her boyfriend from the beginning of the movie. Also, I've already watched this one twice this year.

7. "Hitched for the Holidays"

Another fake dating movie. This one is fun though because the guy is Catholic and the girl is Jewish.

8. "Enchanted Christmas"

Okay, this one is basically on the list solely because Carlos from Big Time Rush is in it. And the main girl is the girl from Spy Kids. And they are actually married in real life.

9. "A Bramble House Christmas"

This one has all the basics of a good Hallmark Christmas movie. Single mother. Moving to a new town. Huge secret that causes a big problem. Ice skating. Making Christmas cookies. What more could you want?

10. "Hearts of Christmas"

This one is fun because the main character works in a hospital which is different. But is not fun because the conflict is a misunderstanding.

11. "Once Upon a Holiday"

The story of a runaway princess and the guy who helps her (even though he has no clue she's a princess).

12. "A Christmas Melody"

Since we started the list with Lacey Chabert, it only makes sense that we end with her too. Plus Mariah Carrey is in this movie.

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.

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.
