Now that thanksgiving is over, it is time to start thinking about Christmas. We start putting up the trees and started shopping for gifts. My favorite thing about this time a year is getting to pull out all the movies that you don't typically watch any other time of the year. So, here are a few of my favorites.

1. How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Okay, let's be honest. This is everyone's favorite Christmas movie (except for the fact that Cindy Loo Hoo is now a Jennie from Brooklyn aka little J). But anyway, if were being honest with ourselves here then we all know why we love this movie so much. We are the Grinch inside really (minus hating Christmas) but I've been saying for years that he is my spirit animal and I'll fight you if you say that isn't true.

2. Home Alone

All of the home alone movies are great because it is another story showing how adults are stupid and that you shouldn't have more than two kids. Really though, who leaves a kid? Either way, we all love this movie because it is hilarious and it kind of made us want to take on New York by ourselves too.

3. Santa Clause

Yet another great Christmas movie series. This is definitely a good laugh for the holiday season even though the last one makes you want to scream at times. But Charlie growing up and acting out because his dad is santa gives me the feels every time.

4. Polar Express

All Aboard the Polar Express! Don't act like you didn't hope this train would be at your house after you saw this for the first time. I mean really any movie with Tom Hanks is great, but this movie is a child's dream from the hot chocolate to meeting santa.

5. Elf

This movie is great when you're in the holiday mood and you want a great laugh. There is nothing funnier than this movie around Christmas time and if you don't love this movie then you have a sad, sad life.

6. The Night Before

This is a great adult Christmas movie. It's super inappropriate, but it's so funny. It's also sadly realist because when you get older and settle down this what happens to traditions with your friends. It makes me sad to think about, but happy to watch.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.
