9 Of My Favorite Holiday Movies

One of the things that always puts me into the holiday spirit is Christmas movies. It seems that this time of year all I watch is movies, whether it be while I'm doing homework, doing puzzles, or anything at all really, I just always seem to be watching holiday themed movies. The holidays just aren't the holidays without all of the movies I watch while I'm running around acting as if I'm not losing my mind over all of the things I have left to do before Christmas. These are some of the Christmas movies that I tend to like, maybe you will like them too.

1. The Ultimate Christmas Present

So I still am in love with this Disney movie, what can I say? I've always loved it ever since I was young. It just gives me happy feelings and I typically watch it at least once every holiday season. It's just a fun movie for me to watch.

2. Elf

Sometimes you just need to have some comedy with your holiday movies. I don't know what else to say besides I find this movie hilarious, and I absolutely love it. Each time I watch this movie, I swear I find something else or catch another new joke from it.

3. How The Grinch Stole Christmas

The grinch is another great Christmas movie. There isn't a year where I remember not watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

4. Four Christmases

Four Christmases is a funny Christmas movie, it's one of those movies that just makes me laugh. If you haven't ever watched it, you should because I think most people would find this movie funny.

5. Home Alone

One of the classics, what can I say, it's funny. It's just one of those movies that you relate to Christmas time.

6. Charlie Brown Christmas

I don't know what it is about Charlie Brown, but I always love all of the Charlie Brown shows, at least the Thanksgiving and Christmas ones. I guess it's just that inner child in me.

7. The Polar Express

This movie is one that I tend to find more cute than anything, I think. I don't know what else it would be that makes me love this movie so much. That, and I am always watching little kids and seeing their reactions to movies like this always make the movie much more enjoyable.

8. The Santa Claus

When I was younger, I believe, these movies were just coming out. It wasn't something I liked at first, but as years went on this series of movies began to grow on me more. Sometimes when you just need a good Christmas movie, this movie can be it.

9. Any Hallmark Movies

Hallmark is like the mother of all Christmas movies. Always so dramatic, always such happy endings. It always puts me in such a cheery mood, the one time I enjoy wrapping Christmas presents is when I am watching a Hallmark movie. There's just something about Hallmark movies that absolutely makes me love them.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
