My 15 Songs for the Holiday Season

The Holiday season is upon us, and to get you in the Christmas mood here are my top Christmas songs for the season.

15. I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas by Gayla Peevey

Every Christmas list has to have this song included, perfect fun holiday song!


14. Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer by Gene Autry

This song is a classic.


13. Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano

One of my favorites, ever since I was a kid.


12. Silver Bells by Rosemary Clooney


Love Silver Bells sung by Rosemary Clooney, mostly because she is in White Christmas and that is my favorite Christmas movie.


11. Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms

Perfect song to sing along to!


10. Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow by Dean Martin

We have a stuffed turtle that is accessorized with a scarf, gloves, and a hat and when you squeeze him he starts singing this song!


9. There’s No Place Like Home for the Holidays by Perry Corno

There are just certain songs that have to be played every year.


8. My Favorite Things by Kelly Clarkson

The Christmas version of the song from The Sound of Music. Love that movie and love this song!


7. Where are you Christmas by Casi Joy

Beautiful song from The Grinch Stole Christmas!


6. White Winter Hymnal by Pentatonix

The first of many songs that I enjoy by Pentatonix.


5. It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year by Andy Williams

Another beautiful classic Christmas song.


4. White Christmas by Bing Crosby

Favorite song from my favorite movie!


3. Mary, Did you Know? by Pentatonix

I never really liked this song until I heard it by Pentatonix, now it's on of my favorites. Plus they created an incredible music video of the song too!


2. Hallelujah by Pentatonix

Such a good chilling version of this song!


1. That’s Christmas to Me by Pentatonix

This song is my number 1 favorite during the holiday season. My rule for myself is that I don't start listening to Christmas music till after Thanksgiving, but this year I broke my rule and the first song I listened to was this one.

Happy Holidays!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
