So tomorrow is National Girlfriends Day. How will you celebrate? Take her on a nice date? Participate in an activity she loves? Give her the whole day to decide what she wants to do with you? There are numerous things you can do for your lovely lady, but it all really depends on the girl. However, me being a hopeless romantic, here are my thoughts:

Gifts are always fun, and so are dates. If she's not the most picky girl, then maybe tomorrow will be easy for you. Most of the time, she just wants to spend quality time with you. In my opinion, quality time is probably the best thing you can do for your relationship. People have busy lives and everyone has their own responsibilities, but nothing is more precious than seeing someone devote time for you that they could've used to do anything else. So, if you guys have any particular hobbies or literally anything you both enjoy doing together, you should definitely do that tomorrow. It is also a weekday tomorrow, so maybe even just staying in and watching movies, playing card games, drawing/painting, or even cooking dinner together would be great.

Also, the most important thing to consider about tomorrow is to avoid being on your phone. Have you ever hung out with someone who didn't look at their phone the whole time and gave you their full attention? It's so simple, but also difficult to find nowadays. This is something I cherish. It reminds me of some old 90's romance movie, where the couple is so into each other that they don't notice anyone else.

Lastly, one thing that I also think a lot of girls appreciate is hand written letters. I am a sucker for hand written letters. Being in the 21st century when someone can just send you a novel through text is surely much easier, but a hand written letter shows that you care and really took your time. First of all, hand writing anything is a task in itself. Hand cramps are killer and not easy to get rid of, so when she sees that you wrote a lengthy letter, it lets her know that you really put in the work. Second, she can keep the letter forever. If you guys are ever traveling separately, or just not physically together for whatever reason, she'll probably pull out the letter and read it just because she misses you. Third, letters are much better than flowers or any gift that can depreciate or die. If your girl is a hopeless romantic, take my advice and write her a letter. I promise you she won't forget it, and she may even happy cry once you give it to her.

Now, Girlfriends Day can apply to any romantic or friendship relationship. I would love to do these same exact things with my girlfriends, so these tips are interchangeable. Enjoy tomorrow and good luck!

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

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!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
