The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
7 Themes

The most wonderful time of year is finally here! If you're anything like me, you get excited about Christmas in October before it's even Halloween! Christmas is not just about the presents, but rather the joy that is brought out throughout the holiday season.

1. Music

Whether you're listening to music in the car or while decorating the Christmas tree, you can never go wrong with some Christmas tunes! Especially when it's finally December and all the scrooges can no longer judge you!

2. Food

There's no doubt about it that the food is always one of the best things. Whether it's snacking at the family Christmas party, or sneaking the snowman cookies from the cookie jar, the food around Christmas is always bomb.

3. Family Time

Meeting up with the family is sometimes a drag? Not around Christmas time; the more the merrier, right? The more the people, the more the presents! Don't forget to do a tease here and there throughout the night... After all, it wouldn't be the same without it, right?

4. Shopping & Decorating

Decorating is by far one of the most time consuming, but fun things, to do. Whether it's putting multi-colored lights outside the home, or putting the cliche white lights up in your college dorm room, you can never go wrong. Oh and don't forget the Christmas tree or other essential decorations to make your room the best of all.

5. Santa!

Don't forget about the most talked about man during the holiday season! After all he does bring you what you wished for, right? What's the biggest thing on your wish list this year? Write it down and don't forget to leave milk and cookies!

Have a safe and happy holiday! Make it a great end to the year of 2016. Merry Christmas!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
