TO MY BEST FRIEND

The Christina to my Meredith, you're my person.

TO MY BEST FRIEND
Odyssey

To my best friend. I don't know what I would do without you. From our 7 am food truck feasts before exams to the classic studying till 4 am the night before said exam, I don't know how I'd make it without you. We kept each other sane freshman year, always together studying, eating, or just chilling in the little free time we have. We even are in a lot of the same clubs, and turn club event into bestie time. When we're together, you know there won't be more than a minute without laughter, especially during a lecture when we can't help but laugh at nothing, together. We are literally two peas in a pod, to the point when either of us goes somewhere, whoever we're with asks about the other person. We're always together, and I love that. I love our dinners and our coffee dates, our little surprises, and gifts for each other. How we both have the dirtiest minds, and just the raise of an eyebrow will make us cackle.

I love knowing you're there for me whenever I need to talk about anything and everything. I love, even though I hate that you won't let us go to bed angry, despite my love for sleep. How we share everything and nothing is secret from each other. I love how we text boys for each other because we know how each other think. Hell, we even talk for each other a lot of the time. We are always there for each other no matter what, and I can't even begin to thank you for that.

When I'm going insane with stress or having a mental breakdown, you're there rubbing my back and telling me how I'm going to kick life's ass. When I'm super sad that I haven't seen my dogs since I moved out last, that your "oh honey" is so comforting and you reassure me they're fine. There is just so much of you that I know, it's like we're one person.

I don't know what I would've done without you if we hadn't roomed together freshman year. The first night I met you, and we played cards against humanity with the floor, and every answer out of your mouth was as filthy as could be, I knew we were going to be great friends. I just never knew our friendship was going to be this amazing. Ever since that night we never looked back, through everything. We were together. We were there for each other. We are here fore each other.

You're the Christina to my Meredith, and you're my person. I love you and I don't know what I'd do without you.

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."

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.
