The Christmas Break Obsession: Hallmark Christmas Movies

I can't stop watching!

As a college student on break, I have spent many hours watching television. What I have noticed is that I have spent the majority of those hours watching Hallmark Christmas movies.

These movies are truly a guilty pleasure. I never thought that I would ever enjoy watching the cliche couple get back together or all of the different snowball fights or ice skating dates. But there is just something about watching the Christmas movies being played all day and night that excite me.

Hallmark Christmas movies are super cliche. Every single movie has the same situations, such as the couple who ends up getting back together after being away from each other for years or the couple that hates each other at the beginning of the movie and ends up falling in love.

They also always have a scene with ice skating or a snowball fight. You can predict the ending of each movie within the first ten minutes of watching, but somehow you end up still watching the whole movie.

I have probably watched over ten of these Hallmark movies since I have been home over break, and although I never thought that I would ever get into these movies, I am so glad that I did. I know that I will be looking forward to all of these movies by the time next Christmas rolls around.

I am thinking that I am not the only person who feels this way about these movies, and it's so cool that people get to sit down and watch all of these great movies before the Christmas holidays with their loved ones.

Although these movies are super cliche and predictable, they are truly my guilty pleasure over this holiday break. I am thankful that these movies are constantly playing to get me excited for Christmas and to keep me occupied over this long winter break!

Happy Holidays!

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.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
