I've been called insane because of this a few times already, but the day after Halloween automatically turns on my Christmas spirit. I was getting ready for a Halloween party on November 1st and was listening to the Christmas Hits playlist on Spotify as I got ready. I've watched a few Christmas episodes of my favorite TV shows and I have planned out fun winter things to do on dates. Like I said, insane.

However, if you're anything like me, Christmas is the best time of year. Classes come to an end, everything is covered in lights, you consume pounds of delicious food, and you get to spend time with your family. Christmas has always been a special time for me and my family, which is why it's so easy for me to get excited so early; when Christmas is your favorite holiday, why wouldn't you want to prolong the joy and celebration?

I am aware that some people are still stuck on Halloween or are patiently waiting to stuff themselves on Thanksgiving, which is awesome too! I'm a huge proponent of the holiday season and those are some great ones to celebrate. Maybe this is an attempt to get everyone on my excitement level so that I can stop being judged, but let's just call it spreading the spirit.

Frosty The Snowman

My favorite is the first one, but indulge in any of the Frosty variety and you are bound to feel a little more jolly.

Rudolph

The claymation Christmas movies are classics.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas

The animated one.... or the live action one. They both slap, tbh. So now, technically you have 11 options. You're welcome.

Love Actually

If you want a little bit of romance mixed in with your festivities, look no further!

Arthur Christmas

Honestly, an underrated one.

A Christmas Story

You'll shoot your eye out. This one also plays for 24 hours straight on Christmas day in case you were wondering.

Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas

SO MUCH MORE SUPERIOR than Mickey's One Upon A Christmas. It's made up of little shorts with all the characters. Maybe a little childish, but trust me on this.

Elf

An obvious choice.

Polar Express

Some people think this one is creepy (which I can see). However, the hot chocolate song makes it for me and I watch it every year.

Die Hard

It's a Christmas movie, idc.

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."
