A Very Merry Dunder Mifflin Christmas

Happy Birthday, Jesus. Sorry your party's so lame.

Christmas movies are definitely fun and festive, but "The Office" is my go-to pick when I want to get in the holiday spirit. Sure, it may not be conventional, but the Christmas episodes are filled with fun decorations, bad santa costumes, and plenty of laughs. So, I've decided to rank the 7 Christmas specials NBC's greatest television show has to offer from absolute best to sub-par (It's the office, so it's still amazing).

1. Christmas Party

In this case, the writers got it right the first time. This is hands down the best of them all. Don't even argue. Michael spends far too much money on a Secret Santa gift (an iPod), is disappointed when he receives a hand-crafted oven mitt from Phyllis, and decides to turn the activity into a game of "Yankee swap" which kind of ruins the whole party.

2. Secret Santa

Phyllis is sSnta. Michael wants to be Santa. Michael can't be Santa. Michael becomes Jesus instead. Oh, and Andy's Secret Santa gift to Erin is all of the fowl from "The Twelve Days of Christmas" song. There's a lot going on in this one.

3. A Benihana Christmas

Karen is in this episode, so I almost didn't want to rank it at number three, but she did end up helping Pam plan an amazing party that blew Angela's nutcracker idea out of the water, so I guess I can give her some credit. Overall, this episode has everything from karaoke to random Stamford employees to the hilariously heartbroken Michael Scott.

4. Classy Christmas

It's a classy Christmas, what's not to love? The fabulous Holly Flax covers for Toby in this one (A Christmas miracle for Michael), and Dwight and Jim are up to their usual antics.

5. Moroccan Christmas

Meredith gets too wild at the annual Christmas party and gets her hair caught on fire. Honestly, the only thing keeping this one from being the last on the list is the fact that Dwight bought out the hottest children's toy on the market and ends up gouging innocent people with his crazy prices. Supply and demand.

6. Christmas Wishes

Drunk Erin is the star of this episode. Everyone gets wild, but the audience sees a really honest and vulnerable side of Erin. It's still a hilarious Christmas special, just a little sad. I guess we can't all be happy during the holidays!

7. Dwight Christmas

While every episode of "The Office: is a blessing to me because I'm obsessed, this one was mostly just strange because it gave the audience a glimpse into Dwight's unusual Christmas tradition. Belsnickel is a thing of nightmares.

While "The Office: is not typically the most festive show, it has a few holiday gems. So log into Netflix, sit back, relax and binge watch all of these Christmas treats! Here's to hoping you'll attend a Christmas bash that's been approved by the Party Planning Committee!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
