Holiday break is finally here! You know what that means! Time for naps, free time, aaaannndd.... family dinners. Once you finish shuddering, continue reading please.

Now if you are anything like me, you get along well with your direct family. But once Christmas Eve hits, you are faced with plenty of uncles and cousins you see once or twice a year. These events always make for some drama.

Take a shot if....

An adult asks you how your finals went.

An adult asks you if you have a boy/girl friend (and take two if they ask if you have a partner that doesn't match your sexual orientation.)

A kid asks if you have a boy/girl friend.

"Come give _____ a kiss." (and take two if you are over the age of 20.)

Someone passes a baby to you for you to watch.

People go and excuse themselves into the kitchen to argue.

Someone is gifted a candle.

Politics are brought up.

"Hey who's parked behind Uncle ____?"

Someone is drunkenly singing Christmas carols.

Finish your drink if...

You are in a relationship and someone asks when you're getting married.

An unexpected (and uninvited) guest shows up.

Someone hands you a baby and says, "you're next, you know."

Someone receives an offensive gift.

A relatives ex-girlfriend or wife is brought up.

Someone takes the, "well how about our new president," bait.

Someone is drunkenly stumbling.

Just grab the whole bottle if...

"You know I know this nice boy...."

A heated political discussion begins.

Your unexpected guest starts arguing with someone else outside.

A child starts riding the dog like a horse.

Someone drops a glass plate in the kitchen.

Someone brings up conspiracy theories.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. 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. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
