Why Hallmark Christmas Movies Are Actually the Best

Christmas is the special time of year when it feels like anything can happen

Why Hallmark Christmas Movies Are Actually the Best
Hallmark Channel

Every year I secretly look forward to the cheesy Christmas movies on the Hallmark channel. People may say they don't watch these Christmas movies because there is bad acting, or unrealistic story lines, but these movies are the best at sucking you in because only during Christmas time can these magical moments happen. Christmas is the special time of year when it feels like anything can happen, so why can't a person fall in love with someone they just met or get over someone who they have lost?

The winter snow that is always very prevalent in these movies brings a sparkle to the already magical air. This makes it seems like anything can happen in these winter wonderlands, but it also makes you see the magic in Christmas. Even if you think that these movies are unrealistic they give you the gift of joy. Joy that comes from Christmas miracles and love at first sight. If you are in a committed relationship then it reminds you of the love you share with your significant other and makes you just want to snuggle up next to a fire with hot cocoa. On the other hand, if you are single it shows you that love can come when you least expect it.

The best part about the Hallmark channel is that there is ALWAYS a Christmas movie on. Bored over Christmas break and don't know what to do with all of the free time you have all of a sudden? Sit down with a friend, family, or by yourself and binge watch happy Christmas movies! What is better on a cold winter day (or a not so hot winter day in Texas) than to watch a movie that brings you into the Christmas spirit?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
