You know those people that get super offended when you celebrate Christmas before Thanksgiving? Ah. If that is you, I wouldn't read this or you may not be happy with me (this is all out of love and light hearted humor, I promise. Pls forgive me).

Here are 5 ways I will DEFINITELY be celebrating Christmas before Thanksgiving:

1. CHRISTMAS MUSIC

If this makes you cringe, have no fear. I don't just listen to Christmas music before Thanksgiving. I listen to it before Halloween, before Labor Day, before Fourth of July, Easter. Essentially, you can catch me dancing to All I Want for Christmas is You all. year. long. I have no shame in my Christmas jam game.

2. Christmas tree? Oh you bet.

I don't just put my tree up before Thanksgiving, I put it up, decorate it, dance around my living room, take pictures of it, all the works. You can FOR SURE count on me to have my Christmas tree up, and I sure will stare at my beautiful tree whilst eating my wonderful Thanksgiving food.

3. Wow, the Christmas socks.

First of all, you can complain to me about celebrating Christmas before Thanksgiving when Target has $1 Thanksgiving socks. Do they? No. OH, but do they have Christmas socks RIGHT NOW? Yes and you bet your little soul I will be stylin' and profilin' my Santa and Snowman socks all around campus with a big smile on my face.

4. Christmas Festivities?

YOU GOT IT. I will literally be at everything possible. I will be extra. $40 to see some lights? I'll be there. $4 for some hot chocolate? Ha. Everyday. I'm so extra that it could not even feel like Christmas outside and you better believe in my world it will be. Colbie is having a whole Christmas season, y'all do y'all.

5. I don't even like movies, but Christmas movies are a whole different story.

I will watch Elf at LEAST 43 times this holiday season, and it starts now. I clearly don't have enough time to watch it that many times AFTER Thanksgiving, right? I mean anyways, they already started the countdown to Christmas movies on tv or something, didn't they? Christmas movies are a must, and I will enjoy them for as long as I can.

Needless to say, I think it is hilarious how upset some people get about this. I love it. & not in a mean, sarcastic way, but I THOROUGHLY enjoy watching people argue through the topic of Christmas before Thanksgiving.

Ah, I sure am THANKFUL for CHRISTMAS.

(Disclaimer: I adore Thanksgiving as well, though hard to believe).

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
