Christmas is coming fast and so is the snow! Which means hot chocolate and cuddling up on the couch watching 25 Days of Christmas! In New York City, Christmas is all about the events, the food, and everyone who look at all of the lights in awe.

1. Rockefeller Center

Rockefeller Center is absolutely beautiful. The best part? The huge tree in the middle of it all. Lit up in thousands of lights. It's up now until January 7th.

2. Radio City Christmas Spectacular

After seeing the tree, you can walk to Radio City for a Christmas show like no other. The Christmas Spectacular is full of cheer. It is 90 minutes of you questioning how these girls kick so high and so in sync.

3. Ice Skating

Whether you know how to skate or not, it's fun trying not to embarrass yourself and fall. There are many places where you can go ice skating. If you enjoy being around many people, Rockefeller Center is your best bet. If you want to go somewhere more relaxed, Bryant Park has a great rink.

4. NYE Ball Drop

We all gather around the TV on New Year's Eve to watch the countdown clock wind down and see everyone screaming. But if you're lucky enough you can go there in person and witness how loud and how crazy it gets. Maybe you could finally get your midnight kiss.

5. Popup Holiday Markets

Support small businesses! Come see what these vendors have to sell. There are markets in Bryant Park, Grand Central, Columbus Circle, and Union Square!

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters.

Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
