In This Article:

Everywhere you go, Christmas music is playing now. You can't escape it, so you might as well embrace it. Instead of listening to the same, old traditional tracks, I gathered a bunch of jolly jams that aren't considered as common as the well-known classics.

I will not be including "All I want for Christmas is you", "Mistletoe", or "Last Christmas" on this list, for these songs have become absolutely huge during this season and are practically classics in their own right now.

No artist is on this list more than once, but many have tons of amazing holiday bops, so check them all out!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock
