It's the last month of the year, and that is absolutely refreshing because it means we made it through! From the cozy winter weather to innumerable year-end celebrations, December has a lot to offer. Even if the rest of the year hasn't been that great, this month will be awesome simply because it's December, and that means it's the most wonderful time of the year! Here's eight reasons why December is the coolest month:

1. Cuddling in blankets!

December is a time for sitting on the couch by the fireplace wrapped up in a warm blanket. It's one of everyone's favorite parts of the month!

2. Vacations!

School's out for the holidays, and we love nothing more than a break from everything to enjoy it! You worked your butt off all year long and now that we're down to the final weeks of the year, you deserve to enjoy yourself!

3. Sweater weather!

No more sweaty weather, hello sweater weather! The weather has been unseasonable warm, but now that it has finally gotten colder, we can break out those cozy winter sweaters we love to wear!

4. Snow!

December marks the official start of winter, and with winter come lots of snow! Time to bundle up, pull out those sleds, and jingle all the way!

5. Family and friends!

How else can you make this month of festivities better for you? By visiting your family and friends! Everyone gathers together to celebrate the holiday season in the best ways with the people who mean the most to them.

6. Holidays!

It's finally time to celebrate the best holidays of the year! No matter what you are celebrating, it's guaranteed to be the most wonderful time of the year!

7. Coffee/Tea/Hot Chocolate

We all love a nice warm drink to warm us up on a cold December day! Plus, everything is peppermint flavored-it's like Christmas in a cup!

8. Ringing in the New Year!

Out with the old and in with the new! It's the time for us to reflect on everything from the past year and move ahead to the next, and December is the perfect month to do it!

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
