Reasons the Christmas Season is the Best

Everyone I know absolutely loves the Christmas season. Some are even slightly obsessed with it but I won't completely call him out. However, there are reasons we all love it so much. Now, I wasn't able to come up with many reasons because of just how much I love it but here are a few reasons the Christmas season is the best ever.

1) The Possibility of Snow

Okay, so I realize that we don't always get a white Christmas. In fact, I feel like I rarely see snow. However, knowing that there is a possibility of it makes me excited. Sorry, I love snow.

2) The Food

There are some candy and foods that are only available this time of year. I'll own up to having an addiction to chocolate oranges. Sorry not sorry. They're literally my favorite thing ever but are only available during this time of year.

3) The Music

Christmas music is awesome however, it is only appropriate during this time of the year. Not that Thanksgiving is over I will have Christmas music playing 24/7. As I am writing this, I'm listening to Christmas music. Face it, you know you love it.

4) The Funny Christmas Sweaters

Disclaimer: I don't own any Christmas sweaters. That being said, I absolutely love seeing them in stores. I even love seeing pictures form ugly Christmas sweater parties. It's very entertaining to me and I'm sure others feel this way as well.

5) The Movies

This is literally my favorite part of the Christmas season. I love Christmas movies so much. I watch them all year round however it's just not the same. Being able to turn on the TV and just flip to a channel and see a Christmas movie makes my heart so happy. I have a problem. I accept it.

6) The Decorations

I can't be the only one that drives around looking at Christmas lights during this time of the year. Christmas trees are the cutest thing ever in my opinion. Christmas decorations in general make me happy and I'm sure many of you feel the same way.

7) Christmas Break

Now, the reason most people love the Christmas season, Christmas break. Who doesn't love a month off of school to be home with your family and friends? I know I do. After the struggles of first semester, we all deserve it and I know everyone counts down the days.

Clearly, I am a tad bit in love with the Christmas season. Knowing I'm not the only one makes it a little better. If anyone needs someone to go look at lights or to watch Christmas movies with, hit me up. It would make me so happy!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
