7 GIFs That Accurately Describe Going Back To School
Scott Webb

Going back to school after two whole months of fun in the sun can be exciting but some of us dread the back to school season.

Back to school is full of lots of packing, getting all of your school supplies, finding new roommates or moving back in with your old roommates, and beginning to make new memories. For those that are just starting out in college, these will be the best and worst times. You will be incredibly tested with academics and you will experience things that you will keep with you forever.

With the back to school season in full swing, here are some GIFs that share all the emotions and preparation of going back!

1. Excitement

The moment that you finally see all your friends that you have not seen since the last day of before summer, the excitement is unbearable! The best part of returning to campus is reuniting with all of your besties!

2. Unpacking

The only thing worse than having to pack up your whole life again to move back into a smaller space is having to unpack your whole life. Unpacking and redecorating a room is challenging yet can be so exciting because who doesn't love a good visit to Hobby Lobby to find new ways to furnish?

3. Freshman 15 turns into Sophomore 20

Say goodbye to the healthy summer eating and hello to the sophomore 20. Just when you thought you have survived the college diet, you have to defeat it all over again. Although there are healthy options on campus, it is more than likely that you will go for the one that is not healthy.

4. Studying

Back to stressing over exams and the endless assignments start back up again. Here is a future look at your face while trying to fit all of these things in at once.

5. Napping

After every class and even sometimes after just waking up, you want to go back to bed. In college, time does not exist so any time is nap time.

6. Over it

After a couple weeks, you are already over the stress of the college life and you just want to go home or even eat ice cream and watch a movie marathon with your roommates.

7. Happiness

Nothing beats the college life and your home away from home will bring you the best memories and will make you work as hard as you have ever worked before to get your degree while also having fun!

College is fun and exhausting even through the long sleepless nights of studying or going out with your friends and making memories. I am sure we are all excited for school to start again and for everyone to move back in and get back into the groove of things so have fun and good luck to everyone!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
