It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Unless your parents have accidentally forgotten that you exist and left you at home by yourself while they tour Europe! Now, I come from a family where I have eleven brothers and sisters and I can say with complete confidence that my parents never even went as far as forgetting one of us at the grocery store!

However, I can still empathize with the McCallisters over forgetting their son because he did misbehave the night before and ruin the family pizzas. Anyone that ruins a pizza is no friend of mine. I’m just joking (kind of), but I realized the best way Kevin can forgive his parents for abandoning him is by making his best and most sophisticated Christmas list to date to help him through this difficult time!

An Alarm Clock

This one’s self explanatory.

A Cell Phone

Crisis averted... Nuff’ said.

All Neon Colored Clothing…

Who could forget him now?

A Tarantula Cage

As much as I enjoyed watching this tarantula ATTACK Marve, that thing deserves to be locked up.

A Cookbook for Kids

A nutritious diet is important for any growing boy; Kevin needs to start improving.

Insulin

His blood sugar is through the roof!

A Security System

This system is amicable but far too time consuming. And could never involve the police.

Ultra Enforced Reusable Shopping Bags

A true tragedy. This can never happen again.

A Fire Extinguisher

It's good to protect the house, but not burn it to the ground.

A Family Who Doesn’t Forget About Him

This would be one where your parents tell you “Santa’s elves can’t make everything!”

Enjoying the Luxuries Your Parents Have Spoiled You with Due to their Negligence.

He didn't even have to put this one on his list!

Now Kevin will be able to clean up all the mess he had to make to protect himself, and still be able to have a wonderful holiday with his loving family. Merry Christmas everybody!

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
