Christmas is a time for family and gifts, and although I don't celebrate Christmas I do think it's the most wonderful time of the year. The whole atmosphere Christmas creates is one of the reasons why I enjoy participating in all the festivities. There are so many activities you can do that, it's probably one of the busiest months for me.

Not only do I feel like it's a great excuse to spend time with my friends and family but they feel the same way as well. My favorite part of the holidays is that it gives me time to spend with my loved ones and the hardest thing to do, sometimes, is to make time for people.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
