You don't need a reason to celebrate and come together with loved ones. If your new year resolution is to spend more quality time with your family, then here are some ideas to consider:

Host a themed party:

Bring the party spirit to your home by hosting a fun themed event. You could go with trendy themes like favorite movie characters or try something unique like a holiday movie night. Decorate the house, plan some activities, and serve some yummy treats to make it a memorable occasion.

Take a trip:

A change of scenery can be a great way to bond with your family and create lasting memories. Consider planning a trip to a nearby destination or even somewhere further afield. It could be a beach vacation, a mountain retreat, or a city break. Whatever your preference, make sure to include plenty of activities and downtime for everyone to relax and enjoy each other's company.

Get creative:

Encourage your family to tap into their creative side by planning crafts or a DIY project together. You could make decorations for your home, bake cookies, or even try your hand at painting or drawing. Not only will you be spending quality time together, but you'll also have something to show for it at the end.

Go out and about:

Enjoy the winter season by exploring your local community or nearby city. There will likely be plenty of markets, relaxing activities, and other events like winter carnivals or food festivals. Make a day of it by trying out new activities, local food, and drink.

Have a game night:

Gather the family for a game night at home. Bring out the board games, card games, or even some video games, and spend the evening laughing and having fun together. You could also make it a potluck and have everyone bring a dish to share.

Get active:

Encourage your family to stay active and healthy by planning a group workout or outdoor adventure. Go for a hike, hit the ski slopes, or even try a new sport or activity together. It's a great way to bond and have fun while staying healthy. Woodside Villas Kasauli will be your haven if you want to enjoy a relaxing holiday ensconced in the serenity of the hills. Their Estate 33 is a four-bedroom villa with a heated outdoor pool and fireplaces (both indoor and outdoor) that welcomes families with much-needed warmth in the cold hills.

Enjoy a movie marathon:

Snuggle up on the couch and have a movie marathon with your family. Choose a theme, like Disney movies or family comedies, and spend the evening laughing and enjoying each other's company. Remember the popcorn!

No matter how you spend quality time with your family this year, the most important thing is to be present and enjoy each other's company. Make an effort to remove distractions and connect with your loved ones. You can create lasting memories and strengthen your family bond with a bit of planning and creativity.

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.

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:

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.
