7 Reasons Why Millennials Are Obsessed With Christmas Starting November 1st

If you are active on any type of social media, you have more than likely noticed the overwhelming excitement for this holiday season. That being said, most — if not all — of it began on November first. While Millennials are consumed with the holidays' spirit, so many people are so offended that we are 'forgetting' Thanksgiving. First off, we are thankful for turkey and gravy just like everyone else but we also thrive on the idea of Mariah Carey's "Merry Christmas" album, hot cocoa, and winter break.

1. Christmas Socks

2. How The Grinch Stole Christmas.

Literally the best movies are Christmas movies. Love stories, family reunions, puppies, Grinches, and reindeer are just a few elements of Holiday Cinema that just makes your heart smile. It is so incredibly hard to study when you can watch "How The Grinch Stole Christmas."

3. Holiday Drinks from Starbucks

There is nothing quite like ordering your first peppermint mocha of the season. That first sip of your warm espresso hug accompanied by a beautiful holiday cup is nothing less than the feeling of perfection.

4. Bath and Body Works Signature Holiday Scents

Whether you stock up on candles, body wash, or body lotion, you are sure to find a scent that puts you in the spirit of giving at your local Bath and Body Works. Some signature scents include Winter Candy Apple, Vanilla Bean Noel, and Twisted Peppermint.

5. Christmas Albums

Ah, the iconic Mariah Carey "Merry Christmas" Album. Playing on full blast in many car stereos, this album alludes the feeling of holiday cheer.

6. The Target Dollar Section

As soon as November hits, it seems like there are sales everywhere. Victoria's Secret has their panties seven for $28.00, Bath and Body Works has three-wick candles for $12.50, and places like Sephora and Ulta have cosmetic gift sets for an insane discount.

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
