15 Signs You're The Christmas-Obsessed Friend In Your Circle.
The List Love

Between the smell of gingerbread lattes and the clanging of Salvation Army bells, the Christmas season is definitely upon us. While most people draw ample pleasure from shopping or a song or two, there's always that one friend who's completely obsessed with the most wonderful time of the year. Below are fifteen signs that you're the crazed, Christmas-obsessed friend in your circle.

1. You refuse to listen to anything but Christmas music during the entire month of December


~*Bonus points if you have your own holiday playlist*~

2. Your house/dorm/apartment is decked floor-to-ceiling in Christmas decorations

3. You make extensive shopping lists for presents to buy your friends and family

Because every gift has to be perfect

4. You frequently engage in Christmas movie marathons

5. ...and never miss a night of ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas

6. When you're not watching Christmas movies, you're out shopping for gifts

...and admiring the decorations in all of the stores

7. You own several Christmas-themed clothing items, and wear them proudly


8. You're a master at wrapping presents


...and obsessively coordinate all of your paper and bows

9. You have a checklist of Christmas activities that help to boost your holiday spirits

10. ...and force your less-festive friends to participate in all of them

Secret Santa, anyone?

11. You waited all year for the holiday beverages and cups to be released at Starbucks

...and were secretly a little pissed off when they got rid of the Christmas designs on the cups.

12. The wallpaper on your phone and computer is reflective of your undying love for the holidays


13. While most people love warm weather, you're dreaming of a white Christmas

14. Besides wrapping gifts, you're also a professional baker of all foods Christmas

15. But most of all, you want everyone else to enjoy the magic of Christmas as much as you do!

...and after it's all over, you find yourself suffering from PCD (Post-Christmas Depression), until it's time to start back up again next year!

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.
