Because even Santa has wants.

A Christmas List: By Saint Nick

Time to get into that Christmas spirit! I’m sure all the excited kiddos have written and sent out their list of wishes for old Saint Nick. What’s different about this year is that Santa has made his own list. Here's what good ol' Kris Kringle wants for Christmas this year!

Kris Kringle’s Christmas List:

  1. A happy, happy holiday for all my elves.
  2. A peaceful Christmas Eve for the lovely Mrs. Clause.
  3. A warm stable for my eight tiny reindeer.
  4. A joyful and Merry Christmas for all the families and friends on earth.
  5. A peaceful year for all the world.
  6. A never-ending supply of cookies (for me).
  7. Less pain, hunger, and illness in the world.
  8. For the cruel people on this earth to find warmth in their hearts.
  9. For mankind to set aside all differences and realize that they are all in need of each other (even if they don’t think they are).
  10. For people to treat each other better.
  11. For dysfunction to become a whisper of a legend long ago.
  12. For children to be children.
  13. For money to be less important and corrupting.
  14. For people to learn before they assume.
  15. For Christmas to be a gift and not a burden.
  16. For broken families to be made whole.
  17. For love to never die.
  18. For a healthy planet.
  19. For less hate.
  20. For a world that is a better place, to live, to love, to have fun, and be kind in.

Santa, like everyone, has a list of wishes. He writes his list in hope that it will find us because, in reality, his wishes are not for him, but for us.

Everyone have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

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

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.

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.
