Christmas. The best time of the year! As Christmas is quickly approaching everyone is trying to feel the holiday spirit. If you LOVE Christmas and want to feel more holiday spirit, keep reading. If you still LOVE Christmas but are in a holiday funk, keep reading. Below is a list of movies to get you HYPED about Christmas. If you are not a fan of Christmas, please leave.

1. Elf

Once you watch Elf, you just know that it's Christmas time. What's better than watching Will Ferrell as an Elf???

2. Polar Express

This movie will always remind you of childhood and the pure happiness of seeing Santa Claus. When watching this movie, make sure to grab a mug of hot cocoa and cozy up by the fire.

3. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

This is a CLASSIC. It is an older movie but so sweet. I bet your parents used to watch this when they were kids also! It is a 10/10 family movie. Watch it during your next family night and then bake some sugar cookies.

4. Grinch

Wow. An all-time favorite! The Grinch is a very relatable character especially as a college student during finals week or just any week basically. The ending is the best part because Christmas always WINS.

5. Charlie Brown Christmas

Another classic because who doesn't love Charlie Brown...?

6. Unaccompanied Minors

Imagine being stuck in an airport around Christmas time with your siblings, friends, or random kids? When I first watched this movie as a kid I thought it sounded like so much fun... but re-watching it, it seems like a horrible situation. This movie is def going to make you laugh, cry, or scream (or all the above).

7. A Christmas Story

Surprise, surprise...another classic. This one is another great one to watch with the family.

8. Home Alone

The thrill of Christmas time with family at the end makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. There are also some great scenes in this movie that are bound to make you laugh.

9. Christmas with the Kranks

Is it really a good Christmas movie without Tim Allen??? Also another classic and probably a movie that your Mom or Dad is down to watch.

I hope looking at this list made you smile and think of the Christmas cheer that the holidays bring. Start watching all these movies before Christmas, or if you already have, watch them again (all of these are def binge-worthy)!!!

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.

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.
