11 Signs That You're Christmas Crazy

We all have that friend that gets a tad overzealous once the christmas season rolls around. In fact, they're probably in the Christmas spirit well before the actual holiday. Maybe this person is you, you just don't know it yet because you haven't noticed the signs.

1. You start listening to Christmas music the day after Halloween... Sometimes, even before.

Regardless of how much your roommate complains, blasting Christmas music gets you in the spirit! It's never TOO early.


2. You have your Christmas decorations all planned out before they're even in stores.

Your strategy is to use a mixture of DIY creations, mixed with your older decorations. If anything, you know where the new Christmas stuff will be located in the stores.


3. Hearing Christmas music in public makes you feel giddy and warm inside.

You already have your Mariah Carey and Michael Bublé Christmas stations ready on Pandora and Spotify!


4. You already have the perfect ugly sweater.

You and your friends go out of your way to check out the ugly sweaters since you guys are in Target all of the time anyway.


5. Wrapping presents would be an ideal job for you.

Friends are constantly asking if you will wrap their presents for them because they know you can get the wrapping paper to fold perfectly.


6. Looking at Christmas lights is the equivalent of seeing your favorite band.

Whether it be multi-colored lights or the white ones, you dream about decorating your house while humming along to carols. The two just go together!


7. You have decorating the Christmas tree down to a science.
Ornaments and tinsel must not be clumped together in one area of the tree!


8.You start shopping for Christmas well before Black Friday.Black Friday is just a way to collect even more Christmas presents. You mainly participate for the experience.


9. And when you run out of money to spend on gifts, you walk through the storing saying "Oh! So and so would love that!"

You're always thinking about how much Jamie would love that scarf or how Ben would be so happy with the half pound Reese's Cups.


10. Christmas day is easily in the top 5 best days of the year.

It's probably above your birthday and every other holiday. Nothing can compare to this magical day.

11. And when it's over, you find yourself getting excited for next Christmas... even if it's 364 days away.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
