What to do after Christmas

Christmas Is Over: What Now?

Once the Christmas season is over what do you do? It is so hard to get back into the swing of life. It's nice to have a break every once in a while. Here are a couple things you can do after Christmas before you go back to work:

1. Sleep In

There isn't any point in waking up early if you don't have to. Am I right? The joy of the holidays is sleep. If there is no need to wake up and be productive, then why do it?

2. Watch Movies

What way is better to spend your last days before going to work than watching movie, after movie, after movie? Whether it be a romantic movie, action movie, or comedy we all have that one movie that we can put on repeat.

3. Stay In Your PJ's All Day

There is no need in changing clothes. That's it. To watch your movies comfortably you need to be in comfortable clothes and surround yourself in blankets. So there is no need in changing.

4. Eat Christmas Dinner Leftovers

Christmas dinner is always best the second time around. You can make a turkey sandwich or ham sandwich out of the leftover meat. Everyone has that one dish that they would die for that one relative makes, and makes sure they get plenty of it and take some home with them.

5. Enjoy The Rest Of The Year

This year has gone by so quick. If feel just like yesterday that I was sitting at the pool in the hot sun. Take time to reflect on the year, whether it be good memories or bad memories they were all part of the year that had an impact on it in some way.


The end of the year and the start of the next one is always the hardest to do. You don't want to let go of some things from the past but don't want to start fresh either. Just enjoy the present and see what happens!

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.
