5 Signs You're Christmas Obsessed

It's ALWAYS the most wonderful time of the year.

5 Signs You're Christmas Obsessed

1. You can quote Christmas movies like it's your job.

Your friends are literally horrified when you start

quoting your favorite holiday movies word for word even when you don’t have the movie playing. You just wish you could do that with all the information you have to remember for finals.

2. You lose yourself in the Christmas section, in any store, AT LEAST twice a week.

You’re basically a team member at the store now and should probably ask the manager for a promotion. You spend your entire shopping trip in the Christmas section trying to decide if you should spend money on the $10 Christmas colored moose stuffed animal or the $15 multi-colored star tree topper when we all know you’re going to end up buying both.

3. Your life revolves around Christmas music.

Give you the aux chord? Only if you’ve got Hillary Duff’s fire Christmas album ready to blast through my speakers. If you can’t find the Christmas radio station, you’ve got a Spotify playlist ready to go as your back up plan. And if you’re anything like me, you’ve even got the old-school reinforcements, CDs. So don’t worry, from November 1st to December 25th, we’ll be bumping to Jingle Bells.


4. You firmly believe that November 1st marks the beginning of Christmas.

Literally as soon as the clock strikes midnight on October 31st, you rip off your Halloween costume and instantly transform into Santa. Instead of dancing around to “Monster Mash” and shoving your face with candy corns, you’re now going hard to “What Christmas Means to Me” by Stevie Wonder while you make your way through a whole pack of candy canes.


5. You're a very real version of Buddy the Elf.

You truly believe that the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear. You love Santa and the thought of him coming to town has you so giddy that you can hardly contain your excitement. You can't wait to decorate every inch of your house and your friend's house and your workspace and your car and literally anywhere else that can possibly be decorated with something Christmas themed. You just want to see Christmas EVERYWHERE.

But some people aren't as stoked about Christmas as we are and they'll tell us to calm down. But don't sweat it, kid. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being obsessed with Christmas.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
