Everyone has a fear in life; for some people it is spiders, dying alive or clowns, but for me it is Santa. Ever since I remember, I have been afraid of the man. The childhood phenomenon of Santa and the belief in Christmas is a magical experience for most children. It honestly taunts me in my sleep. Even at 20, I still cannot get over the fear of the Santa. Here are some reasons why Santa is one of the scariest people alive:

**Yes, this listicle was terrifying to make because I had to look up pictures of Santa on Google**

1. The beard

Duck Dynasty and ZZ Top are okay, but the white beard is just creepy

2. Why is he so happy all of the time?

"Jolly old Saint Nicholas"

3. “He sees you when you are sleeping”

That is just creepy

4. The red suit

No, just no; even if it isn't Santa. Just too creepy.

5. He sneaks into your house when you are sleeping

...AND that is why at my house we enclosed out chimney (not because of a leak or something)

6. At the mall, he always looks so angry and grumpy

RUN!!

7. You never hear about any of his friends

Wow, that's cool. He gets to be friends with a snowman, reindeer, penguin and other mythological creatures like a Christmas tree

8. There are so many movie spin offs, from The Polar Express to Elf

You just don’t know what to believe anymore.

9. He drives a sleigh

What if there isn't snow on the ground or you live in a tropical part of the world? Does he still drive one? It's too complex.

10. The Naughty and Nice List

That is bullying, Santa. What is the criteria anyways?

In the end, just believe and have some Christmas spirit and all else will be fine.

But then again, that cursive is kind of creepy...

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
