Attention K-Mart Shoppers the following is only for the 21±. The holidays can be really stressful times for some. From putting everything together, to wrapping Christmas presents, sometimes we just need a Christmas hack for staying chillier than the weather. Here's how to survive Christmas:

Have Breakfast With Alcohol

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day so make it your bitch and cook whatever you want. Just be sure to add a side of your favorite booze.

Sit Down For A Second With Alcohol

Sometimes our minds can be dangerous and we need to de-clutter it. Why not do it with a beer or ten? I sometimes just stop what I'm doing and lay or sit down. I don't do anything, I just stare at the blank ceiling and once my mind surrenders and is calm, I continue on.

Give Yourself A Pep-Talk With Alcohol

Ban those negative thoughts and indulge yourself in good vibes. Look at yourself in the mirror and gaze into your own eyes. Use a phrase that you like and that motivates you.

Approach The Christmas Party With Alcohol

You won't be arriving to the party alone! You'll be accompanied by Jack Daniels and Captain Morgan. It's time to socialize and create memories and hope that you'll remember them in the morning.

The above is 47% satire. As always drink responsibly and in a safe environment. This time around can be stressful, but when you stop for a minute and regain your sanity you should be okay. Cha Cha on!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
