1. You take it upon yourself to plan almost every get-together for the group.

It's what you do. Even though you might act like you're tired of it at times, everyone knows you love being in charge.

2. You tend to always be the last person there, considering you eagerly volunteer for clean-up duty.

This could be because you need everything back exactly how it was, but either way, the effort you put in to these events is not measurable.

3. Your friends always come to you for your great advice, however, they rarely -- if ever -- follow what you tell them they should do.

Whatever. They can't say you didn't warn them.

4. You love rubbing it in their faces when you were right, and they didn't listen.

You gave them the correct path to take, and they ignored you. Now you have no reason to hold back on your mockery.

5. You love your friends to the point that you aren't scared to be brutally honest with them.

You aren't afraid to speak your mind, especially if it's what will be best long term for your friend. You love them, but you're willing to set that aside momentarily to get real.

6. You'll stick up for yourself, but even more often for your pals.

Nobody messes with your squad. You're a bit headstrong and will always stick up for yourself, but when it comes to your friends, you're downright fierce.

7. Although you lead an organized and slightly uptight lifestyle, you know how to let loose and be silly.

The seemingly most uptight people always know how to let loose and be a little crazy. You are no exception, and are always up for a good laugh.

8. You LOVE winning.

I cannot emphasize enough how competitive you are. Playing "just for fun" isn't even a possibility for you.

9. In fact, you don't take losing well... At all.

You may try to act chill and like it's no big deal, but there is a literal laser ready to shoot from your eyes at any given moment.

10. Your friends love you in spite of your quirks, because your attention to detail and honest nature make you an incredibly thoughtful and compassionate person.


Yeah, you might be a bit overbearing, but that just means you have insanely good attention to detail. You know the best way to comfort people and give the best gifts.

11. Overall, you're the loving mother figure of the group, and no one would want it any other way.

You would do absolutely anything for your friends, and will always love and appreciate them. Even though they might not act like it sometimes, they can't get enough of you.

12. When people tell you how awesome you are, there's only one response deemed appropriate.

Your awesomeness is just obvious. No need to reiterate.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
