Reasons To Be Excited For The Holidays
Natasha Trivedi

If you're anything like me, nothing makes you happier than the Holiday season. Here are some reasons why it's easily the best time of the year.

1.) Holiday Music

Yes, it's annoying when it's overplayed before Thanksgiving, but that doesn't make it any less fun! Nothing lifts spirits like a good holiday song.

2.) Winter Break

Depending on your level of education, you could be home for as long as a month. It really doesn't get much better than that.

3.) New York City

The tree, the lights, the shows, and everything in between truly makes NYC a winter wonderland.

4.) Decorations

The more festive, the better. When its the best time of the year, there's no such thing as going overboard.

5.) Family Time

Because nothing is more special than being with your loved ones.


6.) Festivities

Partie, public events (I personally love the Philadelphia Christmas village) and so many holiday character meet-and-greets are only the beginning of the fun.

7.) Vacations

Being home for the holidays is great, but if you really want an adventure, look into traveling. It always makes for an unforgettable holiday experience!

8.) Movies

A good holiday movie always gets me in a good mood, really no matter what month it is. My personal favorite is Home Alone.

9.) TV Specials

So. Many. TV Specials. To watch all of them would take a lifetime.

10.) Food

Two words: GINGERBREAD HOUSES.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe.
