The Two Albums That Need To Be On Your Playlist This December

As we brace ourselves for December, we find ourselves transitioning into winter necessities such as warm blankets, holiday drinks at local coffee shops, and turning our radios on to Christmas melodies. Though I am excited for the holiday changes, I am looking far more forward to the albums and artists that are coming back to the scene this December.

CHILDISH GAMBINO'S - "AWAKEN, MY LOVE!"

To start, we have Childish Gambino, more recognizable to avid TV watchers as Donald Grover from the sitcom, Community. Gambino’s last albums, Because The Internet and 3005, featured hits such as Sweatpants and 3005, but his upcoming album is something refreshingly new from his past rap and hip-hop creations. You can listen to two of his songs on YouTube already, Me and Your Mama, and Redbone, both brilliant and catchy songs with a 70s funk style and enough soul to keep you singing along for hours.

J. COLE'S - "4 YOUR EYEZ ONLY"

We can make fun all we want with the memes of J. Cole going platinum with no features, but it doesn’t change the fact that he did. As a sucker for cinematography, his documentary style comeback has me excited to no end to see what he has in store this December. Released on YouTube, the title tracks False Prophets (Be Like This) and Everybody Dies, took little to no time to blow up on all social media sites.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.

We all have a love hate relationship with winter, lets be real here. The snow makes people forget how to drive, its cold, the roads are bad, and chances are, you will be spending a lot more money than you do during the other months of the year.

The Post Thanksgiving Panic And Anxiety

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.
