I don't know about the rest of you ladies and gents, but the semester is finally over and winter break is here at last. It's time for those dreadfully glorious holiday parties! But whatever shall you wear? Pinterest has your back.

Here are the four all time greatest ugly Christmas sweaters you can wear this holiday season.

1. The dual function

Talk about your conversation starter. Everyone is going to be wondering how you got so crafty this season after they see you shakin' your tree limbs in this mega fine sweater. AND it's so easy and cheap to make! Buy a forest green sweater, some tinsel (whatever color you feel like rockin'), a $5 bucket of ornaments and whatever you feel like holding the rest of the night (a star, an angel, some beer... maker's choice).

The best part, it's multi-functional! In the left picture, we have a girl ready to mingle and jingle with her friends. On the right, we have a girl who just saw someone she really doesn't want to talk to and is now in full camouflage.

*hint* *hint* perfect for those awkward work holiday parties!


2. The beer belly deception


This one just might be my favorite. I love to eat because oh my god food is amazing, especially at those pesky Christmas parties where there's a mountain of mashed potatoes and a dessert table a mile long. Not to mention ALL YOU CAN DRINK EGGNOG!!! For food lovers, it's heaven shoved into a couple of hours and a house full of somewhat familiar faces.

But there's teensy tiny problem in this calorie-crammed dreamland... food babies. That damn bulge we all get from stuffing our faces. Nothing is worse than fashioning a banging outfit... and a mac n cheese tumor.

Luckily, someone somewhere developed one of the most amazing inventions in human history that will change holiday parties every. It's a snow globe ugly Christmas sweater.

I mean, just look at that cheery guy up there! Is it the eggnog or is it that stylish snow globe? We may never know... and that's the point.

3. For that funny couple


Well, there's really not much explaining I need to do for this one. A pictures worth a thousands words, and this one is definitely not exception.

Look, it's Christmas. People are on vacation, they're hanging with friends, drinking... and then drinking some more. Things are always going to be nice. People are going to get a little naughty, and hey, 'tis the season.

So for the couple and people in general who like all eyes on them, this is definitely up your alley, chimney, or something else punny/witty... clearly I'm not funny enough for reindeer boobs.

4. Christmas Couture

Well, you'll definitely be the only one wearing this one... but for how long is the question. That thing is bound to get itchy. BUT you'll be the only glamorous person at the ugly Christmas sweater party. And this high class clothing item is ridiculously cheap. Pull out an old sweater, smother it in tinsel (whatever compliments your eyes, of course) and once again, bring out the $5 dollar ornament bucket, and you're ready to turn heads and drops jaws... but maybe wear a turtle neck and some long sleeves because no outfit is worth being itchy all night, no matter how cute or creative it is.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
