Top 5 Christmas Movies To Watch This Holiday Season

First off, Merry Christmas Eve everyone! Hope everyone is doing well. Since Christmas is literally right around the corner, I want to share with you my five favorite Christmas movies to watch this year. Some may be iffy but hear them out and check them out if you like them!

1. Elf

How can you NOT like the movie Elf? This is absolutely my favorite Christmas movie of all time. Will Ferrell as a human who thinks he's an Elf? Can't get better than that. This is a great movie to watch with either friends or family. Always gets a laugh out of people, and it is really fun to quote this movie. Really makes you wonder if Santa IS real. Buddy sure proved that Santa is real, but remember: Seeing isn't believing. Believing is seeing. Also, how can you miss out on the Mr. Narwhal scene? It is hands down the best part of that movie.

2. A Christmas Story

Ah, a classic. A movie with a sequel that sucks, and that later turned into a televised musical that ALSO sucked. See, I'm talking about the CLASSIC version of this movie. Where Ralphie shoots his eye out after begging for this weird BB Gun for Christmas, when Santa suggested a nice football instead. It is on ALL day on Christmas Day and I can tell you right now that it is on my television the whole day. I don't watch it all day, but it is nice to have it on and to just sit around while listening to it. This movie is most definitely a top five contender for Christmas movies, and don't try to change my mind on that.

3. Home Alone Series

Home Alone. Where after the 2nd movie they somehow snuck in a decent third one, and then after that ruined it. I will say that there are so many plot holes throughout this series. I mean, wouldn't the kid just call the cops if robbers were coming into his house? I know I wouldn't be messing with my house and boobytrapping the place if I was in that position. At least not at that age. But that's what makes this movie series so great. There are SO many problems with the plot that you just learn to enjoy it because it is a classic. You want to have a Merry Christmas you filthy animal? Watch this series.

4. Christmas Vacation

Clark Griswold. The man who tries to make everything perfect for the holidays and ends up shooting himself in the foot half the time. This is another classic holiday movie that you can't miss. With Cousin Eddy and the whole gang visiting for the holidays, you know it is going to be a great time for Clark. Why wouldn't you want to watch a guy go sledding through the streets, or having the police break into his house as mayhem is already occurring? Trust me it is a great choice.

5. The Santa Clause Series

TIM ALLEN IS THE MAN. I watched this whole series already and I still love it so much. A man who doesn't believe in the big man in the north, becomes the big man in the north. Really teaches you the magic of Christmas and that it is totally okay to believe in the mysterious wonders of life. I could watch this series over and over again because to me it never gets old. It also just has tons of funny and beautiful moments throughout the three movies in the series. If you and your friends need a chill movie to watch, I'd definitely go with this one.

Really hope you guys like my suggestions! I love the holidays so much. Hope everyone has a great Christmas and a happy New Year!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
