It's Never too Early for Christmas

Do you hear what I hear?

It's Never too Early for Christmas
Hallmark Channel

Yes, I know it's only October. But, it's never too early to get into the Christmas spirit! It really is the most wonderful time of the year. Christmas time just has a wonderful, joyful, and exhilarating feeling to it. Everyone seems to be in a cheery mood (not if you work in retail...do not even get me started.) From the insane amounts of baking, the shopping, and everything in between, I just can't seem to get enough of this season. Here are 10 signs that you are SO ready for December and the Christmas season.

1. You already started building your Pandora and/or Spotify playlists to perfection. Make sure you have the Michael Buble Christmas album, I would 10/10 recommend.

2. You figured out what gifts you're going to get for the ones you love. It really is a great feeling seeing their faces light up when they unwrap your gift. Along with that, you're looking at your bank account wondering how you will afford everything. Hey, it's the holidays. It's okay to spend a little cash.


3. Christmas music isn't on the radio yet. Someone has got to keep the spirit alive! Left and right, people are politely telling you to shut up. According to Elf, the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.

4. Walking through the isles of the department stores gazing at all of the Christmas decorations. "Why do you want to go to Macy's?" "Oh, no reason...." GET PUMPED!!!


5. You cannot wait to start baking Christmas cookies. Baking, eating cookie dough, and spending time with your loved ones...what could be better? I don't know what's more fun: baking them, or actually eating them!


6. Watching Christmas specials of your favorite TV shows puts you in a great mood.

7. You want to watch all the old, classic Christmas specials play on TV. Honestly, I absolutely love watching the original Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer, and A Charlie Brown Christmas.


Oh my god, I want to watch this right now.

8. The thought of decorating your house/bedroom with Christmas decorations gives you the goose bumps. The lights, the mini tree you keep in the corner of your room, the Christmas scented candles....ahh...



9. You own multiple Christmas sweaters and cannot wait to wear them!! Someone please have an ugly Christmas party so I have an excuse to wear them. Wait, I don't need an excuse, just don't judge.


10. You can't wait to come together with your friends and family. After all, that is what Christmas is about. Whether it's watching movies or wrapping presents, Christmas is a wonderful time to be together.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
