Now that we're a week into December, it's only natural for us to queue up our holiday playlists. We consider ourselves Christmas music–aficionados, so we've compiled a list of our top ten tracks for Yuletide!

"White Christmas" by Bing Crosby


A classic. Is it really Christmastime until we hear this song?

"It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" by Michael Bublé


Michael Bublé is an annual Christmas tradition for us.

"Mvmt III, 'Silent Night, Holy Night'" by the Oh Hellos


This track is a new discovery for us. Its utter beauty breathes new life into a beloved carol.

"Christmas for You and Me" by Drew Holcomb & the Neighbors


We dare you not to feel like curling up by the fire with a mug of hot chocolate while listening to this song.

"Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow" by Gloria Estefan


Another fun blast from the past. Our fingers are crossed for a white Christmas!

"Christmas Lights" by Coldplay


In addition to loving this song, we adore this music video. This is one of the loveliest original Christmas songs in recent memory.

"The Christmas Waltz" by She & Him


This song makes us feel perfectly cozy and Christmas-y.

"Christmas Time Is Here" by Vince Guaraldi Trio


Another classic. We love this entire soundtrack.

"Wizards in Winter" by Trans-Siberian Orchestra


How can we not love the combination of Christmas music with festive lights?

"Christmas Is All Around (Love Actually)" by Sleeping At Last


A sweet, laid-back take on a fun, festive song.

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.

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.
