Taylor Swift showed us a different side of her in her recent Tiny Desk concert with NPR.

If you are a hardcore Swiftie, this was everything you could have wanted from her and more. Right now she is on fire with "Lover" recently being released. It is so great to finally get to know a happily in love and unadulterated Taylor Swift.

If you are a Swiftie and haven't seen this performance yet, take the next 28 minutes to do so.

SHE PLAYS HER SONGS ACOUSTIC

SHE PLAYS "ALL TOO WELL" IN THE FALL

Umm, hi?! If this isn't one of your favorite T-Swift songs, you're wrong.

No backup dancers or singers, it's just her

She explains her thinking behind her songs

"Lover" is one of those albums that she needed to have a conversation about and this performance gave us more than we could have ever wanted.

She shows that her voice is beautiful by itself

She is HUMBLE

Taylor Swift is the highest paid female artist in the world, she has played stadiums across the world, and she is SO humbled to be in a tiny room with just a guitar, a mic, and a piano singing and talking to her fans.

We hear a different sound to "Lover"

She interacts with her fans in the audience

She talks TO them and even gives a little girl her guitar pick.

She is FUNNY

She is raw in talking about the meaning behind her lyrics

She makes us cry, just because she is Taylor

Seeing Taylor up close in a more intimate setting gives us a more personal version of her and it brings us happy tears!

She looks incredible

She showed us she is the same Taylor Swift we all fell in love with in 2006

Her hair changed, her sound changed, but her personality and her passion for music and her fans is still the same Taylor. We stan.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

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

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

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."

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.
