17 One-Liners From 'Elf' College Kids Can Use In Everyday Conversation Over Break

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a54yC1etmVc

"Elf" is a classic Christmas comedy that holds a special place in my heart. Its wholesome humor means that I know I'll be watching it every Christmas. The current college generation grew up with "Elf" and can relate to Buddy in more ways than one. Here are 20 ways that college kids will quote "Elf" in everyday conversation.

1. "We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns, and syrup."

Being home on break is not the time for eating healthy.

2. "I am a cotton- headed ninny- muggins."

When you get your final grades back in January.

3. "You have such a pretty face. You should be on a Christmas card."

When you need money from your mom

4. "I just like to smile; smiling's my favorite."

When you have to work a double shift in retail or as a waitress.

5. "I'm sorry I ruined your lives and crammed 11 cookies into the VCR."

When you apologize to your parents about everything you did during you childhood.

6. "I planned out our whole day: First, we'll make snow angels for two hours, and then we'll go ice skating, and then we'll eat a whole roll of Toll- House cookie dough as fast as we can, and then to finish, we'll snuggle."

When you see your childhood best friend for the first time since August and you have to make every second count.

7. "So, good news- I saw a dog today!"

Seeing a dog is one of the greatest things that can happen to a college student.

8. "I'll call you in five minutes."

When you say bye to your college friends on the last day of the semester

9. "Son of a nutcracker!"

After any mild inconvenience occurs

10. "I like to whisper, too."

When your family inevitably talks about you while you're in another room.

11. "You sit on a throne of lies."

When your sibling says they didn't know that the leftovers in the fridge were yours.

12. "I got a full 40 minutes [of sleep]"

When it's Christmas Eve and you're so excited to wake up.

13. "I passed through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of swirly twirly gum drops, and then I walked through the Lincoln Tunnel."

When you explain to your family what college is like.

14. "I'm in a store and I'm singing!"

media2.giphy.com

When you're shopping with your besties and they play "All I Want For Christmas Is You"

15. "Does somebody need a hug?"

When you get the January blues

16. "Santa! I know him! I know him!"

Christmas is all about being a little kid again, isn't it?

17. "The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear."

We all could use a little more Christmas spirit.

Everyone's homework over Christmas break is to watch "Elf."

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
