Tis the season!

Thoughts Of A Christmas Fanatic

It’s officially our time of year. The time when our most favorite season is finally here. Thanksgiving and fall- themed events are gone, and Operation-Christmas-Overload has commenced. Your friends and family have already made comments about your “way too early” celebrating of this amazing holiday, but they can now save those comments until next October.

It’s acceptable to decorate, wear, and watch your favorite Christmas-themed things. No longer are the months with weather that’s far too warm or holidays that just don’t measure up to our most prized. Let the Christmas season begin and the decorating invade. Every year, it seems as if the Christmas season becomes shorter and shorter, so enjoy the most glorious month while it lasts! Here are some common thoughts that may run across the mind of a Christmas fanatic like myself.

“I better update my Christmas board on Pinterest.”

“I must craft all the Christmas crafts possible.”

“I need to make all my saved radio stations Christmas.”

“There’s no such thing as too many lights.”

“I may need more than six Christmas sweaters.”

"I wish 25 Days of Christmas was more like 365 Days of Christmas."

“Coordinating wrapping paper for friends, family, and even my pets is essential.”

"I've been planning out all of my friend and family's gifts since July."

"More tinsel."

"Still not enough tinsel."

"I'll watch my weight this holiday season. No overloading."

“One more candy cane.”

“I need hot chocolate in an IV.”

“I must go see this Christmas light display for the tenth time.”

“I don’t even have enough space for all my Christmas mugs.”

“Oh, look how cute this Christmas mug is!”

"When I have my own place, its going to be a Christmas invasion this time of year."

"I wish I still believed in Santa."

"I believe I have snow-smelling powers like Lorelai Gilmore."

"After-Christmas sales are for the weak. We need it now."

"Is it really a candle if it isn't Christmas-scented?"

"Christmas $1-$3 bins at Target are my stress relief on a budget."

"More than one Christmas tree should be the new normal."

"Yes, my dog has his own Christmas sweater."

"I never want December to end."


"Merry Christmas!"

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
