There's no better time than Christmastime in my mind, and I think that means that it's never too early to start getting into that Christmas cheer. So, here are 10 reasons why you should never be afraid to get into beautiful CHRISTMAS SPIRIT (*cue the Jingle Bell Rock*).

1. Christmas movies are the best movies.

Giphy

"Elf," "A Christmas Story," literally any movie on Hallmark — they're all my favorite. They're also a wonderful reason to get into that Christmas spirit a little earlier than the average Joe. So give me a blanket and some hot cocoa, and pop in a Christmas movie!

2. Christmas music is (also) the best music.

Giphy

Did I mention the "Jingle Bell Rock"? Maybe some good old fashioned MARIAH CAREY because all I want for Christmas is some HOLIDAY CHEER!

3. There's nothing quite light bright Christmas lights.

Giphy

Christmas lights are my favorite. I repeat, CHRISTMAS LIGHTS ARE MY FAVORITE. So, I see nothing wrong with throwing some string lights over those turkey decorations.

4. You get to decorate a beautiful TREE!!!

Giphy

I LOVE CHRISTMAS TREES! There is nothing quite like putting up all those ornaments and lights onto a beautiful tree, and no better time than right around Halloween to do so, I am sure of it.

5. You can finally go HOME (and get a break from school).

Giphy

I always need a break. SO, getting into the Christmas spirit is the perfect reason to start counting down the days to Christmas break (the other most wonderful time of the year).

6. SANTA!

Giphy

Santa. Need I say more?

7. Did I mention that you get to decorate a tree?

Giphy

Yes, yes I did, BUT that's just because decorating a tree makes me oh so happy, and is the perfect reason to get into the jolly good Christmas spirit, and get HAPPY, HAPPY, HOLIDAY HAPPY.

8. It makes everything 100 times HAPPIER!

Giphy

See the list item above to understand more on why getting into the Christmas spirit early makes you oh so very happy. There's just something about all of that holiday cheer that can really help a college guy or gal get through the rest of the semester.

9. It means we're one step closer to SNOW!

Giphy

I ADORE SNOW. I know some places get tons of snow as soon as fall rolls around, BUT something about Christmas time itself really makes for the perfect backdrops for some nice fluffy snowfall.

10. There's no better time like the day after Halloween (or the day before)!

Giphy

"Bob's Burger's" is my favorite show for a reason, and that's because they know how to do holidays. OK, so that's not actually the reason, BUT IT'S TRUE. There's no better time than the day after Halloween to start putting up Christmas decorations.

Who says you can't have a Thanksgiving feast with a bright and sparkly Christmas tree in the background? Or maybe a few Christmas bops? I say, put up that tree and turn on some jingle bells because it is never too early to get into the Christmas spirit.

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.

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.
