Now that Thanksgiving is in the past, the first of December is quickly approaching! How exciting! Now, those who are excited for Christmas can truly show it without the judgement! Of course, with Christmas comes the "25 Days of Christmas" movie marathons that many channels provide as entertainment during the Christmas season. No matter if you are by yourself, with a group of friends, or cuddling with your significant other, here are ten Christmas movies that are a must watch during this Christmas season.

1. The Nightmare Before Christmas

Disney and Tim Burton in one movie? That already makes it a must. This is a great Halloween movie and a great Christmas movie so you get to watch it for two different holidays!

2. Elf

Will Ferrell in this movie is absolutely hilarious! He is the reason I watch this movie every Christmas season. Elf is a great Christmas comedy.

3. Dr. Seuss': How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Jim Carrey did an amazing job as the Grinch in this movie. I'm not sure what it is that makes me love this movie so much, but I have both the cartoon as well as the Jim Carrey version on DVD so I can watch them all year long!

4. Polar Express

First off, the music in the movie is beautiful. I can sing every song and I'm not ashamed! Second off, for all of you non-believers out there, this movie is for you! Do you hear the bell? If not, believe.

5. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

This movie is just so cute. You hear about Rudolph in the popular Christmas song, but being able to see Rudolph's hardships in a movie hits me right in the feels. Plus, this movie is all about acceptance and who doesn't like that?

6. A Charlie Brown Christmas

Another very cute movie. All of the Charlie Brown movies are just super cute. Charlie and the gang definitely have Christmas spirit no matter what gets in their way.

7. Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas

It amazes me at the number of people who have not heard of this movie! I am a big lover of Beauty and the Beast so naturally, this movie makes my list. The music in this movie is also one of my favorites and little Fife is the cutest! If you have not seen this movie, watch it ASAP!

8. The "Santa Clause" Trilogy

I really like all three of these movies, the third movie being my favorite because of Jack Frost, but since they are on all of the time, they can get a bit boring. These three movies are definitely a must watch at least once because I think the concept is pretty unique.

9. A Christmas Carol

Another movie where Jim Carrey beautifully executed his character. I absolutely love the concept of the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future, and I love Scrooge's change in perspective.

10. The Year Without a Santa Clause


This is probably my favorite classic Christmas movie! The Heat Miser and Snow Miser scene is my absolute favorite part and you better believe I can recite their theme songs word for word. If you haven't seen this Christmas movie, or any of the classics, I highly recommend you watch them.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
