10 Classic Christmas Movies Everyone Must See

YouTube

'Tis the season, everyone! It's that time of year again to curl up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and some holiday classics. From decorating the tree to eating Christmas cookies and watching the snow fall quietly outside, it really is the most wonderful time of the year. Whether you're young or old, there's something for everyone around the holidays. Here are 10 must-watch Christmas movies that everyone needs to see this holiday season.

1. "Elf"

Probably one of the most popular Christmas movies amongst teens. Will Ferrel makes a great elf.

2. "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation"

The provocative humor makes this one of the funniest Christmas movies of all time. I would not recommend this movie to anyone under the age of 13.

3. "Home Alone"

One of the most classic Christmas movies of them all. Need I say more?

4. "The Polar Express"

If you're looking for a great Christmas movie for the entire family, this is at the top of the list.

5. "A Christmas Story"

Getting your tongue stuck to a telephone pole and getting shot with a BB gun... Merry Christmas!

6. "How The Grinch Stole Christmas"

The Grinch is every child's favorite nightmare. A green, hairy beast with Christmas spirit? How ironic. And don't forget, "Where are you Christmas? Why can't I find you?".

7. "The Santa Clause"

Tim Allen goes from your ordinary dad to a Christmas icon over night.

8. "The Nightmare Before Christmas"

There is nothing else that is quite like Tim Burton's movie. The best thing about this is that you can watch it not only during Christmas, but Halloween too!

9. "A Charlie Brown Christmas"

Any of the Charlie Brown movies are iconic, but the Christmas one is by far the best.

10. "A Christmas Carol"

Scrooge, the man who hates Christmas, is visited by the ghost of Christmas past, present and future... If you know anyone who hates Christmas, they are the Scrooge of the 21st century. Bah hum bug.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday's everyone!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

LaGrange College

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
