10 Reasons Why We Love Christmas

1. RED AND GREEN

you see, I'm not a huge fan of either color but when you put them together in the month of December and BAM. magic.

2. Christmas trees

My absolute favorite is finding the perfect tree and putting it up in the living room. The smell of the tree covering the whole house and the lights twinkling through the windows. I may be slightly bitter because my family got the tree withoutme this year but maybe they can win my love back..maybe.

3. Christmas lights

Who doesn't love Christmas lights that blink along to jingle bells?

4. Christmas music

Jingle Bells, I Hear the Bells, Carol of the Bells..boy people sure are creative. I don't care what the song is or if I even like it. I am going to be playing Christmas music from Thanksgiving to New Years.

5. Cookies


They aren't just for Santa.

6. ABC Family 25 days of Christmas

Yes, it's called Freeform now but Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas does not have as much of a ring to it if you ask me.

7. Hallmark Christmas movies

They are nothing short of predictable and cheesy but thats what we love about them. I could have never seen the movie and I coud still quote all the typical sappy love lines and tell you what happens in the end.

8. Family time

It's all about learning you have a third cousin from Montana you never knew about.

9. Bath and Body Works Christmas Scent Candles

I currently have about 5 lit in my room. Enough said.

10. 8 lb 6 oz newborn infant Jesus

It's not just a Talladega Nighta]s quote. He is the single most important reason for this Holiday. Without Jesus we wouldn't have Christmas. The meaning of the word is Christ-mas, MORE CHRIST.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
