10 Signs That You Are Definitely Obsessed With Christmas

PublicDomainPictures

Most people love the holidays. There is the warm, cozy drinks, the snowfall, the endless shopping sprees that end up with you saying "Oh well, it is the holidays, right?" purchase of a gift to yourself, the general good cheer for all. It is magical. But that is most people.

Then you have those people who are completely obsessed with Christmas and everything it has to offer and they start planning for the holiday well before Thanksgiving even hits. For those of us who decide to take our love for the holidays just a little bit further, things are always a tad bit more intense. Suddenly, you find yourself at Target in mid-November buying Christmas-themed items because why not? Thanksgiving to you is just a pre-Christmas feast. It is pretty obvious that Thanksgiving is much more about the fact that SANTA'S COMING! See what I did there? Elf reference. The first sign of obsession.

Here are the ten signs that you are definitely are one hundred percent one of those Christmas-obsessed people:

1. Christmas music is not a seasonal treat, but a way of life.

2. Watching "Elf"

Elf has become the favorite film for Christmas lovers. It is charming, hilarious, and it is fun no matter what age you are. It is fun to say "You sit on the throne of lies!" to people around the holidays if you are feeling like the "Grinch".

3. Going to Target takes on a whole new meaning.

This one does not need an explanation. During any other season, Target is a goldmine, but during the holidays, it is simply heaven. Affordable decorations, candy, baking supplies, and Christmas-themed clothing and stockings.They have everything and it is wonderful.

4. Everything becomes a Christmas Event.

You do not just bake Christmas cookies. You bake Christmas cookies while watching Home Alone while wearing Christmas-themed socks while putting together Christmas gift bags for your friends and family.

5. Christmas Pajamas.

Starbucks holidays beverage? Check. List and budget that you will more than likely not follow? Check.
7. "You're in love, You're in love, and you don't care who knows it."

Yes, this is yet another Elf reference. You should all get why that is important. If you are in love, Christmas is even a thousand times better. Gift-giving, mistletoe, cuddling up in sweaters, and baking cookies for your significant other is just lovely.
8. Christmas Themed Cookie Dough = A Necessity

One hundred here, one hundred there. A stocking for my dog? Okay, no big deal. A way-too-expensive bouquet of flowers for my mom? Obviously. In the spirit of Christmas and gift-giving, you simply forget that you can barely afford Starbucks three times a week (even though that does not stop you).

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.

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.
