5 Giveaways Christmas Is Your Favorite Holiday, No Contest
John Hughes Entertainment

Christmas is literally the BEST time of the year, from holiday movies to Christmas decorations there is not one bad quality about this special holiday. You give gifts to your loved ones, get to have hilariously awkward big family dinners, and for college students, the best of all is — WINTER BREAK.

If you have been questioning whether or not you are the Grinch or Buddy the Elf Himself, here are five sure signs that you are a literal Christmas Angel.

1.You count down to the Hallmark Channel Holiday Movies and FreeForm's 25 Days of Christmas.

Maybe you have a timer on your television, or maybe you literally added the premiere dates into your phones Countdown app - either way these movies are a wonderful way to get into the Christmas spirit! Who cares if they start at the beginning of November?

2. Decorating your tree is a job, everything has to be perfect.

You have special ornaments that need to be seen in the front, and ornaments that have to be towards to top. The star vs. angel debate is an inner crisis for you every year, causing a few sleepless nights and minor anxiety attacks.

3. Your house looks like a beautiful Christmas Wonderland, with what should be a prize-winning light show out front.

You have a beautiful tiny Christmas village along with small train either surrounding the village or your beautiful tree. Your light show should be on "The Great Christmas Light Fight" on ABC - because you would definitely win that $50,000 prize.

4. There is literally NEVER a bad time to start holiday shopping or talking about the holidays.

Christmas Music starts playing on the radio just before Thanksgiving, but you have been listening to your hand-made Spotify playlist for weeks. In fact, you probably have your shopping done before December. You treat Christmas time like the Olympics -- and you are certainly going for the gold.

Christmas time

5. Christmas Day is the best day of the entire year.

Sure, you spend time with family and you might have to be in 90 different places - or you are hosting a full house of people, but that doesn't matter to you. You have been baking cookies, preparing your holiday dinner, and delicately setting up packages to give out since last night, and you haven't slept but you have been watching the Christmas Story. Nothing can ruin this day. (Even when your younger relatives tell you they don't believe in Santa anymore and you can feel a piece of your heart break off.)

Don't be ashamed of your Christmas Spirit. Embrace being Buddy and know that you are certainly not alone, we have to make this holiday special for the people who are Grinchy. Keep up the good work Santa's little helper!

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
