Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! It's finally the month we've all been waiting for. I know it's only the beginning of December, but for dedicated Christmas lovers out there like me, we've been preparing for the big day since mid-November—who cares when it's socially acceptable?
Every year the conversation about your favorite part of the holidays always makes its way to the surface, and with classes coming to an end, the idea of the upcoming holiday has become more of a distraction.
So, for all of the Buddy the Elf's out there, this one is for you.
Here are my top 10 favorite things about the Christmas season:
1. The After-Christmas Sales
Because only the real bargain shoppers have the courage to hit Forever 21 or American Eagle after the shopping season is coming to a close.
2. The Food
Ah, yes, the socially acceptable time of the year to eat endless amounts of food and not feel guilty about yourself.
3. The Holiday Music That Plays On An Endless Loop![]()
Did you miss the "12 Days of Christmas"? Don't worry, catch it again at the top of the hour!
4. Decorating For Christmas
Plugging in the Christmas lights. One goes out and they all go out!
5. The Competitive Environment During Family Game Night On Christmas Day
Balancing your Christmas spirit and hostility towards your Dad who is a little too competitive for a game of cards is a lot more difficult than it sounds.
6. The Silence Of Everyone Digesting Their Food And Relaxing After A Hectic Christmas Morning
7. The Awkward Moment At Your Christmas Church Service When Nobody Knows The Words After The Second Stanza Of 'Silent Night.'
8. Calling Everyone Scrooge Who Has Even A Slightly Bad Attitude During December
9. Having Every Day Of The Month Be Considered A Day In The Month Of "Christmas" Not "December"
December 1? Haven't heard of it. Christmas 1? That's more like it.
