November is a great month all around. We can finally look forward to a long and much-needed break from school, the holidays are coming up, the weather is getting brisker, and the overall spirit of the holidays is felt all around. If you want to start to get excited about the many upcoming fun things, just continue reading!
Here are the ten best things about November:
1. Daylight Savings
Although it will start to get darker earlier, gaining that extra hour of sleep is much needed at such a busy time of the year.
2. The weather is getting colder.
This can be sort of good and bad, but at least you can finally wear those cute boots, sweaters, and leggings you have been saving since last season... and maybe pick up a few new cute items for your wardrobe.
3. Fall scented candles
There is nothing better than the cozy scents of fall like leaves, autumn, and cranberry woods.
4. Thanksgiving Break
After the long month of October with difficult midterms, many assignments, and papers, it's easy to say that we are all ready for this break!
5. "Friends" Thanksgiving Episodes
"Friends" has some of the greatest Thanksgiving episodes, so to get in more of the turkey eating spirit, it's fun to watch those holiday filled episodes.
6. Thanksgiving... duh.
A holiday that revolves around family, friends, food, and giving thanks...what could be better?
7. Black Friday
If you're into all the craziness that revolves around Black Friday then more power to you. Just please don't trample anyone (or just wait for Cyber Monday and avoid all the crowds).
8. Being able to listen to Christmas music without it being totally socially unacceptable
Some people say the day after Thanksgiving is when they start being able to fully listen to Christmas music and enjoy it, however to me, November 1st is just as acceptable. Do yourself a favor and listen to Justin Bieber's "Under the Mistletoe"... truly will get you in the spirit. Thanks, JB.
9. Decorating for Christmas
Right after Thanksgiving is a popular time for people to begin getting their houses all ready for December fun!
10. The simple joys of this time of year
Enjoying the beauty around you, the scents, anticipation for the holidays, and overall feelings of joy that surrounds this time of year is something we all need to truly enjoy and take advantage of! It truly is the best time of the year.
