Dear Santa,

You did it again! Another year’s work is completed and every boy and girl felt the spirit of Christmas once more with your help! You work hard all year in order to spread joy around the world.

Your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed. And because of all that hard work, I think you deserve some time to yourself. I figured you might not know where to start, so I have made a list of all the possible things you can do while taking some time off!

1. Go on Vacation:

This is an obvious choice for some relaxation. Getting away is always peaceful and rejuvenating. I suggest somewhere sunny, because we all know the North Pole keeps you covered and pale. Just don’t forget your sun screen, and get those toes in the sand.

2. Read a Book:

Your life is a fantasy to us, but you live it everyday. When you aren’t reading Christmas letters, you should experience some adventure, mystery and drama in stories you aren’t familiar with.

3. Binge Watch the Best TV Shows:

Santa, with all your constant Christmas list checking, you don’t have time to watch the exiting new shows everyone is talking about. Go get yourself a Netflix account and snuggle up with Mrs. Clause and binge-watch away!

4. Hit the Gym:

Okay, we all know you are kind of obligated to eat all of those cookies we leave out for you, but they still can cause some damage. In order to get back stamina for the upcoming Christmas season, I suggest you get a gym membership. It will help boost your endorphins and get your spirits going.

5. Date Night with Mrs. Claus:

Mrs. Claus has been by your side and helping you and the elves prepare for Christmas Day. Her hard work shouldn’t go unnoticed either, so how about you and her enjoy a romantic night out… you’ll thank me later.

6. Enjoy a Spa Day:

Ahhhhhh, just thinking about the spa has me feeling stress-free. That’s what a trip will do for you! Go on a calming getaway and get the antsy energy out of your body. You will come back feeling good as new and ready for next Christmas.

7. Stumble Your Way into a Bar:

If you rather just do it the old fashion way, go out and get a drink. You deserve to get loose, dance a little and have some fun! Us college kids, and even sometimes grownups, do it.

8. Get Some Shut Eye:

Let’s be real, all of those ideas seem nice but what you probably really want is some good olé’ sleep. Do like the bears, and hibernate. (Maybe you can squeeze in the other stuff after)
