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.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
