Yes, another Christmas article in the sea of Christmas articles this time of the year. But let's be honest, Christmas is amazing and we can't get enough of it. What else can I not get enough of? "Love Actually." It's not Christmas until I've watched this film at least 10 times. I can't help but think of all the things this movie describes about the holiday season.

1. When you are excited about the holidays and everyone else is indifferent

2. When Christmas morning comes and you make your way downstairs

3. When you finally get time to yourself

4. When someone asks if Christmas is your favorite holiday

5. When the Christmas feast begins and you've been waiting for the food

6. When someone gets you a gift you really like

7. When you realize it's still cuffing season and you are alone

8. When it doesn't always go according to plan

9. When the Christmas cookies run out

10. When the Christmas music comes on the radio

11. When you are single for another holiday season


12. When you ask your friends for cuffing advice

13. When your Christmas decorations go overboard

14. When you figure out the weather is going to drop drastically

15. When someone wants something expensive for Christmas

16. When someone gets you a present you don't like

17. Trying to bundle up to go out in the cold

18. Listening to all of your relatives life advice

19. When you get just a little too into present wrapping

20. When the family leaves and you can finally relax

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
