I love Christmas. And when I say I love Christmas, I mean I am OBSESSED with everything surrounding the Christmas season. It's important not to forget the true meaning of Christmas, but these movies will help you get into the Christmas spirit. One of my favorites traditions is to watch the same Christmas movies on repeat. Corny? Maybe. Regardless, here's my four favorite classic '60s movies that help me get into the Christmas spirit!

1. "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town"

Join the Kringle's and the Burgermeister Meisterburger for a fun-filled fifty minutes of timeless Christmas songs, classic puppet-like cinematography, and all the Christmas vibes you felt when you were five years old. From the day after Thanksgiving beyond Christmas Day, it is a safe bet that I am watching this classic or the next one - "Jack Frost"!

2. "Jack Frost"

The classic "Jack Frost" is a Christmas masterpiece. I had the biggest crush on Jack Frost when I was younger. Who am I kidding - I still do! The quest for Jack Frost to have a normal human life is explored through this timeless classic. A must-watch for every Christmas season!

3. "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer"

Did anyone else ever realize how many lessons and motifs there are in "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer"? I noticed but not to the full extent until recently, like, wow! Anyways, this is a must-watch classic story of an outcast reindeer who gains a place in "high society" as Santa's leading reindeer. Rudolph is almost as adorable as Jack Frost, ready to cheer up your Christmas spirit with his cute red nose.

4. "The Year Without A Santa Claus"

Imagine a Christmas without Santa Claus? Everyone knows him, everyone loves him. This classic explores the pitiful year Santa Claus decided to take a holiday, leaving Mrs. Claus and his elves to navigate the project that is present-delivery on Christmas Eve! This classic tops out the four Christmas movies I watch on repeat from Thanksgiving to Christmas. Who am I kidding? I watch these movies way past Christmas; it's all a part of that holly jolly spirit!

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

What I Do When I’m Sick in College

I wish I had my mom.

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Moms are super heroes dressed in yesterday's clothing and they deserve an award for that.

1. For all of the endless hugs and kisses you always seem to smother me in.

2. For teaching me how to cuddle and being the best cuddle buddy still to this day.

3. For teaching me some of the best "mom dance moves"

4. For pushing through all of the sleepless nights and still being super mom.

5. For not killing me every time you found me cutting my own bangs.

6. For showing me all the classics and helping me develop a good taste in movies.

7. And for watching the ridiculous reality TV shows with me because no one else will.

8. For helping me with all of that awful homework that even you couldn't understand.

9 For giving us a taste of our own medicine when we needed it.

10. For setting my curfew at a reasonable hour to ensure I didn't get into any mischief. (I was still able to accomplish a little mayhem though)

11. For spoiling me as a little girl but making me do chores as I got older. I now understand the point of having a clean house.

12. For being the best host to all of the weird friends I would bring over.

13. And for standing up for me when those weird friends stabbed me in the back.

14. For listening when I needed to vent and always giving the best advice possible.

15. For being the absolute best cook. No arguments there.

16. For answering every single phone call and the millions of questions that I always have.

18. For going on shopping dates with me and always telling me your honest opinion.

19. For rolling the windows down and singing along to the music with me.

20. And for being the best mom possible. I love you!

I wish I had my mom.

"Your ass is grass, and I'm going to mow it."

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

The struggle is real.
