14 Things Christmas Addicts Can Relate To
Bustle

We have finally hit that time of year! Not the holiday season -- the Christmas season. The day after Halloween, you started playing "All I Want for Christmas." You are practically are Mariah Carey every time you blast it in your car. To some people, your love of Christmas is excessive. To us Christmas addicts, the two months of Christmas is never enough. So with that being said, we have to unite this Christmas. Here are some problems all Christmas addicts can relate to.

1. You get overly excited when stores begin carrying Christmas items.

Halloween and Thanksgiving decorations are all right. It makes your day to see stores begin to rack up the Christmas decorations. The best time of year is after-Christmas sales when you clear the aisles of all the Christmas decorations for your stock next year.

2. When you see Santa, you low-key want to sit in his lap.

Santa is your role model. He works 24/7 all year round and you only see him in the malls one time a year. Low-key you want to tell Santa what you want this year. It’s OK, we all know.

3. You watch "Elf" on repeat until Christmas.

"Elf" is a Christmas classic. If you are not watching it on repeat, then you are doing it wrong.

4. You blast Christmas carols every time you get in your car.

You have a bomb Christmas playlist. Every time you get in the car, you have the aux cord and you have to play at full volume your favorite carols. There isn’t enough time to play Today’s Top. It’s Christmas y’all! It is a must to play Christmas music.

5. You got mad singing skills to "You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch."

Your impression of this song is better than anyone you know. You give every lyric your full force. If you are not giving it you all, then you are a rotten banana with a greasy black peel.

6. Your ugly Christmas sweater game is too hard.

You have walked up and down Goodwill’s aisles to find the most rockin’ ugly Christmas sweater. Every ugly Christmas sweater you see, you have to one-up. The minute you find the right one, you order or buy. There is no competition when it comes to ugly Christmas sweaters.

7. You know Freeform’s "12 Day of Christmas" schedule like the back of your hand.

From classic movies, to modern Christmas movies, you have seen it all. You are ready to recite each line of every movie if needed to add emphasis.

8. Who cares about Pumpkin Spice this and that? Peppermint is the true favor of the holiday.

There is such a rage about Pumpkin Spice Lattes. But Peppermint Lattes are like a hug within a drink. The warmth of the holiday is contained within peppermint.

9. You have been making plans for your Christmas holiday since last year.

Now, you are actually adding dates to your plans.

10. Your diet consists of candy canes, gingerbread and egg nog.

There is no shame. If you aren’t eating pure sugar, the entire holiday that explains why Christmas isn’t your favorite holiday.

11. You always bring the best gifts to Secret Santa.

From all the "Santa Claus" movies, you have perfect the act of giving gifts… and maybe even making them.

12. You have gotten into a few arguments in your life about the best holiday.

It’s Christmas, duh? If not, you sit on a Throne of Lies.

13. It’s not winter break.

It is Christmas break and it can never come fast enough.

14. You are never ready of Christmas to end.

Enough said.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
