12 Things You Know If You've Been Excited For Christmas Since Halloween

There's the people who passionately defend not saying the C-word before Thanksgiving. There's the people who enjoy every holiday as they come. And then there's the people who decked their room out in lights and started their Christmas countdown before their Halloween hangover wore off. Here's a few things you know if you're person #3.

1. People who are just getting excited for Christmas now are baffling to you

ARE YOU SERIOUS? Christmas is the best day of the year, get in the spirit right now. RIGHT NOW.

2. You spent all of November defending yourself from Thanksgiving lovers

"But Thanksgiving comes first!" "Don't forget about Thanksgiving!" "I won't say the C-word until after Thanksgiving."

GOOD FOR FREAKING YOU. I'M EXCITED ABOUT CHRISTMAS NOW, OKAY?

3. You aren't even tired of your decorations that have been up for 2 months

It still makes your heart happy to fall asleep under your Christmas lights to the smell of your tree scented candle.

4. And your Christmas shopping has been done for at least 4 weeks

You've been thinking of your loved ones' Christmas gifts since last Christmas ended.

5. The only thing you've listened to for the past 30 days is Christmas music

90% of this has been different versions of All I Want For Christmas Is You because you have at least 5 on your playlist.

6. You wear Christmas sweaters out and about, not just for ugly Christmas sweater parties

Nothing is more practical than a gigantic three-dimensional Santa on your sweater for a trip to the mall.

7. You love Thanksgiving, but you see it as more of a milestone for getting closer to Christmas

Every bite of turkey is one bite of turkey closer to Christmas.

8. Whether you like snow or not, you're dying to have some on Christmas Day

You're not just dreaming of a white Christmas, you're praying and begging God for a white Christmas.

9. You have a favorite Reindeer

Because what Christmas lover doesn't? (Blitzen is the best, you can't lie.)

10. Coming home to your Christmas tree makes your heart indescribably happy

The spirit of Christmas lights up your heart.

11. Your diet during the month of December is just Christmas Cookies

Your exercise regimen has to double during Christmastime because all you eat is christmas cookies and desserts. But lets be real, you just lay around and watch the 25 Days of Christmas.

12. Your Christmas spirit won't actually die down until mid-March

At least 4 months of the year have to center around loving Christmas, and if people have a problem with it before October, it's going to extend into the New Year.

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.
