It is finally December! 'Tis the season to stay inside and watch Christmas movies with your families. Everyone has to leave the house eventually though and when you do, Christmas music is everywhere. We all have our favorites, but these ten are better than any others.

1. Sleigh Ride

This one is tricky because it has several different versions. Personally, my favorite is the orchestra version. I really don't care for the lyrics in the song at all.

2. Baby It's Cold Outside

This is another one where the version makes all the difference. Dean Martin never actually did a duet to this song, but Martina McBride later added her vocals in there. It is honestly the only version of this song that I like.

3. White Christmas

Bing Crosby sang this song in one of the best Christmas movies ever made. That's all I really need to say about that.

4. Little Drummer Boy/Peace On Earth

Another Bing Crosby song, but this time he is joined by David Bowie in one of my favorite Christmas duets. If you haven't heard it, you need to look it up and hear it. There is also a parody of it by Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly that is pretty great.

5. Let it Snow

I live in lower Alabama. I never get snow, especially not on Christmas. I can dream though, right?

6. Do You Hear What I Hear?

Carrie Underwood does a rendition of this song that is absolutely gorgeous. It will always make my top 10.

7. Christmas In Dixie

Lesser known, but still amazing. The band Alabama has my favorite Christmas album of all time and this song is a big reason as to why.

8. I'll Be Home For Christmas

Michael Bublé can sing just about any Christmas song, let's be honest. This one is probably my favorite of his though.

9. All I Want For Christmas (Is You)

Is it really Christmas without Mariah Carey singing this song?

10. You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch

For those of us who are a bit like the Grinch during the holidays, find the 2000 movie version with Jim Carey.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
