Finals are over! Hopefully you ate plenty of bananas and most of your finals got canceled. Now that we're getting close to the holiday season, it's time to start getting into the holiday spirit. Here is my foolproof 4 step method to make sure that you're exuberayting even more holiday cheer than a mall Santa Claus who just got promoted to a less absurd job like jester or tooth fairy.

Step 1: Get that spinning windmill going!

It got you through finals. It'll get you through mid December. The trick here is that the rotating motion in your torso combined with the windmill gesture will summon the energy of the popular 20th century dance icon Petrushka. And believe me, nobody has more holiday spirit than Petrushka. If I had to recommend a location to perform this action, I'd say either Paris or a gym in a high school.

Step 2: Lick some snow.

Despite these frigid temperatures, some of us may still be feeling like it's summer. Well there is only one way to combat that. Lick some now. This will help tell your body that it's time to put away the short shorts and crop tops and break out the holiday sweaters and igloo building kits.

Step 3: Befriend the local penguins in your community.

I'm not entirely sure when penguins came to the states, but they're here and they're here to stay. Most of the penguins I've seen seem like they're pretty darn pumped for the holidays. They probably have some great wisdom to share about their holiday methods, and maybe even how they are so skilled at the art of aviation

Step 4: Keep that windmill going!

The problem that most people run into is that by the time the holidays roll around they've used up all of their holiday spirit. The only surefire solution is to keep your windmill going. Channel your inner Petrushka!

Happy holidays everyone! :D
