I. Love. Winter. I love the cold, I love drinking four cups of coffee a day, and I absolutely love wearing winter clothing. It is all my favorite thing in the whole world. I cannot wait to live somewhere after I graduate college where it is freezing cold the vast majority of the year.

To me, there is nothing cozier in all the world than changing into a fuzzy pajama set at the end of the day, fixing some hot chocolate, and playing some sick jams on my record player and just watching it spin before I go to bed. I think in another life I am a record player.

Music is so important to me. It sets the tone of my every day, and I have a playlist for almost every single occasion or mood. And I truly hope you, my dear Odyssey reader, didn’t think I was going to start the year off without a playlist for you.

I hope these sweet, soft, gentle tunes find you settled in, whether that be in your bed getting ready to fall asleep, in the library creating bigger and better study habits, or just hanging out with the people you love who love you right back. If you ask me, there is most definitely season-specific music, so here is a wintery mix (pun intended) from me to you.

1. Winter Song X The Head and The Heart

2. Skinny Love X Bon Iver

3. Wild Heart X Bleachers

4. The Girl X City And Colour

5. Ribs X Lorde

6. Turning Page X Sleeping At Last

7. Slow it Down X The Lumineers

8. High Dive X Andrew McMahon (bonus points for

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

17 Things You Can Only Relate To If You Grew Up With Strict Parents

Sleepovers are not a thing. They're just not.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

Living Away From Home, As Described By 'Friends'

For better or for worse

Loyola University Chicago

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

14. When you’re called by your full name, you’re in deep trouble.

15. Don’t make them call your name twice.

16. Sleepovers are not a thing.
