Christmas time is here and what better way to get into the spirit than snuggling up and watching a good movie? With so many Christmas movies coming out every year, here are some of my personal favorites. Most I watched all the time as a kid, showing my little sisters and cousins all of them to continue the tradition. Everyone gives you that warm fuzzy Christmas feeling, with or without the hot chocolate and eggnog.

1. The Grinch Who Stole Christmas

Giphy

Nothing like a good ol' Jim Carry movie to lighten up the feelings around Christmas. Plus Max is the cutest and makes everyone wish they had their own personal reindeer/dog.

2. Love Actually

Giphy

So many different stories and they all make you cry and put you in your feelings. This movie doesn't spare any "realness" as it shows you every detail and heartbreak of the holidays but like any good movie everything works out in the end.

3. Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas

A little Disney magic and good lessons for everyone to remember every now and then. As a kid this was my absolute favorite Christmas movie. Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, the triplets, they're all here to show you their own holiday stories. Grab a little sibling or niece/nephew to use as an excuse to see this one,

4. Nightmare Before Christmas

Giphy

What's better than a movie you can watch for two different holidays?! You may have just watched it with some cider for Halloween but hey, break out the hot chocolate and you can watch it again!

5. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer 

Giphy

Grab your fellow misfits and get ready for the little jingles. The classics are hard to beat and with them being so short you can watch more than one in a night!

6. Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Giphy

You can follow up with this classic! If you've always been curious about the back story of St Nick snuggle up and give this one a look.

7. White Christmas

Giphy

This movie has it all. Dancing, singing, giving, comedy, romance, it's just a classic that never gets old. Feel free to sing along, I'm sure most of you know the words.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
