Considering Christmas is less than a month away, it's time to break out some hot coco and play some classics. This is a list of some of the best Christmas movies TV has to offer to get yourself in the Christmas spirit!

1) Rudolph the Red- Nosed Reindeer

An absolute classic movie and carol. Can't go wrong with your favorite reindeer!

2) A Charlie Brown Christmas

If you don't know this movie, you should be ashamed of yourself! That tree is iconic, I even own one as a Christmas decoration in my house!

3) Santa Clause is Coming to Town

Ever wonder the story about Santa Clause? Well this movie gives you a tell all story about Santa Clause! Nothing beats the classic stop-motion Christmas movies!

4) The Year Without a Santa Clause

The siblings of the holiday season... Snow Miser and Heat Miser. These two are basically you and your sibling in a nutshell!

5) How the Grinch Stole Christmas

The only one who would ever want to steal Christmas... the classic Grinch!

6) Jack Frost

Ever wonder how the snow and cold weather comes about? Well Jack Frost can explain it to you! Along with the help of the Groundhog!

7) Twas the Night Before Christmas

8) Frosty the Snowman

Because we all wish we had a snowman like Frosty growing up!

9) The Little Drummer Boy

Definitely one of my favorite classics and favorite Christmas carols!

10) A Garfield Christmas Special

This one isn't as popular as some of the others on this list, but my dad and I loved this growing up as kid! If you know who Garfield is, you'll love it too... I promise!

11) Annabelle's Wish

Another not so popular movie, but definitely worth the watch! What's cuter than a cow who wishes to be a reindeer?!

12) Nestor the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey

This movie made me so sad in the beginning, but every Christmas movie on this list has a good ending! See why!

13) Arthur's Perfect Christmas

If you grew up watching Arthur, you definitely remember this special! Feel the nostalgia with this one!

14) Olive the Other Reindeer

Not as famous as the other movies, but it's similar to Annabelle's Wish... except this is about a dog who wishes to be one of Santa's Reindeer's!

15) Elf

"Buddy the elf what's your favorite color?!"

16) Home Alone

I WISH my parent's accidentally forgot me as a kid. I'd have the time of my life!

17) A Christmas Story

Because on Christmas day, this marathons for a full 24 hours. "You'll shoot your eye out!"

18) It's a Wonderful Life

"Every time a bell rings, an angel gets it's wings"

19) The Polar Express

Is this a real train yet? Because I'm ready to buy my ticket after watching this movie!

20) The Nightmare Before Christmas

Is this a Christmas movie or a Halloween movie? I find it can be used for both occasions!

I could make a list of 50 movies but these are my top MUST see movies! So grab your blankets, a cup of coco and enjoy a nice Christmas movie marathon with your family or friends!

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.

The people that spend their summers at the lake are a unique group of people.

Whether you grew up going to the lake, have only recently started going, or have only been once or twice, you know it takes a certain kind of person to be a lake person. To the long-time lake people, the lake holds a special place in your heart, no matter how dirty the water may look.

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.
