December Is The Best Month

December is absolutely crazy, but it's the best month of the year

December Is The Best Month

December is literally the craziest month of the year. Everyone is busy, whether it's finishing out the semester or doing last minute Christmas shopping or planning for the next year's shenanigans. Even though December is actually so crazy, you have to admit that it is the best time of year and everyone loves it!

December is so fantastic. My personal favorite part of December has got to be Christmas. Everything is just happy and beautiful at Christmas time. People learn to love each other. People learn that it's better to give than to receive. People learn that life is about your family and the people you love, not about the dumb and unimportant things. I also love traveling and though I don't usually travel during the Christmas season, plenty of people do. December and the Christmas season is a fantastic time to trvel because you get to see how other areas of the country or world celebrate the holidays. Plus, who can resist spending an entire day celebrating the birth of our wonderful savior, Jesus Christ.

One not-so-fun part of December is finals. Finals are horrible and disgusting but it's fine. Why is it fine? Because after finals comes BREAK. For us students, Christmas/Winter break is at least two weeks filled with holidays, friends, family, shopping and of course food. I love to go shopping with my friends after Christmas while we are on break. I also love spending time with my family during Christmas. More wonderful things that happen during Christmas break are Christmas movies, hot chocolate, candy canes, tree trimming, Netflix, ice skating and maybe even snow!

December is such a fun time to be with friends and family. It is a time to celebrate each other. December is the very end of the year so it's almost like a final chance to come together and end the year on a good note by coming together and become closers than ever before. Whether you are just getting to know someone, becoming best friends with a good friend or starting to love someone even more that you ever thought possible.

December is about becoming less selfish and becoming more selfless. December is a time for joy, laughter, giving and family. Make this December the best December you have had yet! Reconnect with old loved ones. Make new friends. Participate in a white elephant gift exchange. Celebrate your favorite December holiday. Be happy! End your year with a bang and try something different. Have a fantastic December! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
