Top 4 Ways to Keep the Christmas Spirit (a few months early) (Post #5)

It's October. I know. Not only is it October, but it is early October. If anyone else is like me, they would already be in the Christmas spirit. It is my favorite time of the year, for many reasons. But as classes continue and the hustle and bustle of everyday life ensues, its hard to find that Christmas spirit.

So today, even though it is technically not the Christmas season, I want to give some ways to keep the holiday spirit in your life as a college student.

You definitely do not have to be a Christian to have this holiday cheer. No matter what religion you practice or lifestyle you lead, winter time is always a good season to spread cheer.

Here are some ways to keep this cheer!

1. Christmas Music
I will be the first one to admit that I have already began to listen to Christmas music. I am well aware that this is probably abnormal. But it is a good way to make this connection to the holidays that you could be lacking.

2. Go to Walmart
Lordy, lordy. The trees are already up and the smell of cinnamon and apples are in the air. If you are ever searching for the spirit of Christmas just walk into a Walmart.

3. Start Planning your Christmas break now
This could mean a lot of things. Sign up for an alternative break for a way to have a bigger holiday season impact.

4. Bother your friends with how  excited you really are
This is what I am doing. The words, "Christmas", "Break", and "after finals" come out of my mouth at least 20  times a day. You'll feed your own excitement, but will probably annoy your friends. The sacrifice may be worth it.

Christmas is around the corner (and down the street a little).
