6 Songs To Add To Your Christmas Playlist

Now that you over-ate Mom's sweet potatoes and lounged away on your parents' couch for a week, it's time to jump on the holiday bandwagon. This could mean anything from decorating your fake $14 tree you bought from Target, making gingerbread cookies with your roommates, or going ice skating with your significant other. Whatever fun winter activity you have planned, you're bound to be playing Christmas music in the background. To spice things up this holiday season, I've compiled a collection of songs you need to add to your Christmas playlist ASAP.

1. Michael Buble's Entire Christmas Album

Is it really Christmas if you don't listen to the entire thing?

2. "Baby It's Cold Outside" by Colbie Caillat and Gavin Degraw

Their voices are perfection together. Enough said.

3. "Santa Baby" by Kylie Minogue

Every girl knows every word.

4. "Santa Tell Me" by Ariana Grande

If you're single, this one's for you.

5. "Mistletoe" by Justin Bieber

This sounds extra good when your significant other is serenading you with it.

6. "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey

Requirement: sing at the top of your lungs. Bonus points if you hit all the high notes.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.
