The Elf on the Shelf, now an internationally renowned children's Christmas phenomenon, was invented to keep kids on their best behavior around Christmas time. As the legend tells, the elves sit in their same spot all day and monitor your child. When it is time to go to bed, the elves fly back to Santa and relay to him if your kids have been naughty or nice. This can ultimately effect what presents your kids will receive from Santa on Christmas. However, there have been many times when the kids get out of bed and come downstairs in the morning, that the elves have been caught participating in things that should earn them their own spot on Santa's naughty list.

Like graffiti-ing on the back of babies' heads while they sleep.

Or holding Princesses for ransom.

Or wreaking havoc on the copy machine.

Or making sure their human wont have a problem going to the bathroom.

Or making a mess in the kitchen to make flour-angels with the gingerbread cookies that Mom just baked the night before.

Or redecorating the bathroom


Or teepeeing the house

Or slipping Tabasco sauce in your Visine just for shits and giggles.

Or breaking into Mom's jewelry box and making away with her diamonds.

Or hanging out in the liquor cabinet to make for a rough morning.

It seems that Santa has a corrupt law enforcement, and it won't be long until our elves need their own elves to keep them in line.

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
