Here are a few pointers for Christmas break from yours truly and the one and only, Buddy The Elf!

1. Smile and be happy! Don't let the stress of shopping and scrooges get you down. Enjoy your time with family and friends and be grateful for what you have.

2. Try not to sit around and worry about how you did on your final exams and/or projects! You can't go back and change anything, so relax and focus on what is important. You are not a cotton-headed ninny muggins.

3. Spend time with your family and friends! There is so much to do around your town, so be on the lookout for fun memories to make!

4. Don't forget: you are never too old to get excited about Santa! He only comes once a year so go all out with baking cookies and other treats for him.

5. Take advantage of the home-cooked meals and don't let anyone judge you for pigging out on your favorite foods!

6. Jam out to Christmas music every time you are near a radio! Blare it through the car or house and sing, sing, sing!

7. Let your family and friends know how much they mean to you. You don't even have to buy them extravagant, expensive gifts to do so. Just show them!

Merry {almost} Christmas, y'all!

Love,

Caitlyn & Buddy The Elf
