One of Hollywood's greatest contributions to the Christmas season is a slew of fantastic Christmas movies. Each year, ABC Family, (which is now Freeform) puts on their annual 25 Days of Christmas, and each year I flip out over the movies that come on TV. Nothing makes me merrier at this time of year than watching a Christmas movie on the couch, surrounded by friends and/or family, covered in a warm fleece blanket (besides the actual reason for the season).

Freeform announced the schedule on October 27, 2016. Although, for me, it is a bit early to be thinking about Christmas in October, I was still excited with the film choices this year. I am very excited that they made sure to include all of the classic stop motion films. Here are some of my favorite holiday films, sure to make the season a bit merrier!

The Year Without Santa Claus

This is definitely my favorite stop motion Christmas movie of all time! The characters are some of the most iconic characters of the Christmas season, not to mention how adorable they all are! It has some of the best songs in Christmas films, as well. 🎶 They call me Heat Miser! Whatever I touch starts to melt in my clutch! He's too much! 🎶

The Santa Clause

This movie is perfect for people of all ages! It gets everyone in the Christmas spirit, from little kids to adults. It is full of great lessons about believing and having faith. Not to mention, Tim Allen is quite the character!

The Little Drummer Boy

Another stop motion sensation! This film is one of the greatest Christmas films of all time. The title song is one of the most iconic songs in Christmas music history. It is a perfect way to get into the Christmas spirit, considering it is a story that leads up to the REAL reason for the season!

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

It's a Griswold Family Christmas! Here is another of the most iconic Christmas movies of all time! You will be rolling on the floor laughing by the time this movie is halfway finished! This movie is full of the comedic realities of the Christmas season.

Santa Claus is Comin' To Town

This movie is one of the great stop motion films of the Christmas season. It is one of the most iconic films, tracing Santa Claus all the way back to his Kringle origins! Full of some of the most known songs in Christmas music history, you'll be singing along before you know it! 🎶 You'd better watch out! You'd better not cry! You'd better not pout I'm telling you why! Santa Claus is coming to town! 🎶

8 Things All Siblings Know Too Well

As told by Ross and Monica Geller.

Clarion University

FanPop

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.
