10 Reasons Why We Love Christmas
PC Wall Art

1. RED AND GREEN

you see, I'm not a huge fan of either color but when you put them together in the month of December and BAM. magic.

2. Christmas trees

My absolute favorite is finding the perfect tree and putting it up in the living room. The smell of the tree covering the whole house and the lights twinkling through the windows. I may be slightly bitter because my family got the tree withoutme this year but maybe they can win my love back..maybe.

3. Christmas lights

Who doesn't love Christmas lights that blink along to jingle bells?

4. Christmas music

Jingle Bells, I Hear the Bells, Carol of the Bells..boy people sure are creative. I don't care what the song is or if I even like it. I am going to be playing Christmas music from Thanksgiving to New Years.

5. Cookies


They aren't just for Santa.

6. ABC Family 25 days of Christmas

Yes, it's called Freeform now but Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas does not have as much of a ring to it if you ask me.

7. Hallmark Christmas movies

They are nothing short of predictable and cheesy but thats what we love about them. I could have never seen the movie and I coud still quote all the typical sappy love lines and tell you what happens in the end.

8. Family time

It's all about learning you have a third cousin from Montana you never knew about.

9. Bath and Body Works Christmas Scent Candles

I currently have about 5 lit in my room. Enough said.

10. 8 lb 6 oz newborn infant Jesus

It's not just a Talladega Nighta]s quote. He is the single most important reason for this Holiday. Without Jesus we wouldn't have Christmas. The meaning of the word is Christ-mas, MORE CHRIST.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
