"Holiday In Handcuffs" Guide To Not Being Single This Holiday Season

25 Days of Christmas is one of the things that I look forward to every Holiday Season. Buddy the Elf spreading Christmas cheer, Kevin McCallister’s patience (or lack of) with the overwhelming amount of family crammed into one room of the house (and how dare someone eat the last piece of plain pizza?) The Griswold’s showing us the true art of Christmas decorating, and of course, Trudie displaying actual refusal to be alone this holiday season. Here's her five step guide to getting yourself a man for the holidays!

1. Hold Him At Gunpoint

Who can resist a woman in a pink dress, and antlers?

2. Rock A Fro'

We all try to look our best. We straighten our hair, perfect our makeup, and put on a cute outfit. Regardless If we're dressing for ourselves or to impress, maybe this year's holiday hair style must is the fro'.

3. Maybe Add Some Antlers

If the afro wasn't enough, antlers... or better yet a Santa hat may do it.

4. Blindfold Him

It adds excitement and anticipation. If you're looking to give off the whole mysterious woman vibe, a hand-woven blindfold is definitely a must!

5. Cook A Really Nice Dinner

Who doesn't love a home-cooked meal? A romantic candlelit dinner? Since the holidays can get stressful, and we're all busy with Christmas shopping, and work deadlines, warm leftover Chinese food will win over his heart for sure.

So many people worry about being alone during the holidays. Not having someone to watch Christmas movies with, take cute Instagram pictures with in New York City, or not having anyone to bring home to meet the family. And while all these things are nice, a perfectly filtered Instagram with 102 likes, is not what the holiday season is about. While it is about love, it's not necessary that you're wrapped around someone else's arm until New Years. The right guy will come along, enjoy the holidays, and if you have to hold him at gunpoint.... you're probably doing it wrong (and are probably the one who should be in handcuffs.)

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
