Go! Go to your DVD players or your laptops! It's that time of year when you get to binge all your favorite holiday movies without being judged.

1. "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown"

Giphy

Yes, the greatest Halloween quote of all time came from this 1966 Halloween special directed by Bill Melendez.

2. "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving"

Giphy

Bill Melendez strikes again with his 1974 Emmy Winning TV special. Let's admit it, jellybeans and toast never looked so good. And how could anyone forget about the epic Snoopy as the Red Baron?

3. "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"

Giphy

Honestly, this 1964 special is one of the greats and a timeless classic. You can catch me watching it for the 1,000,000th time this year.

4. "The Year Without a Santa Claus "

Giphy

Let's be honest, the Heat Miser and Snow Miser song is a total bop. But the 1974 heart-warming movie also teaches one of the most important lessons of all — the power of giving.

5. "How the Grinch Stole Christmas"

Giphy

What's this I hear? Apparently Bendiddle Combepatch is starring in a new one? That's nice, but I'll stick to my 1966 Dr. Suess version.

6. "The Polar Express"

Giphy

A great and emotional movie starring Tom Hanks, Tom Hanks, and Tom Hanks. And also Tom Hanks.

7. "A Christmas Story"

Giphy

I don't know what's funnier — the narration of older Ralphie Parker or the whole lamp thing. Even still, Ralphie's 1983 holiday adventure is a great film for everyone.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.

Daily Fun Lists

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.
