This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Hofstra chapter.

For collegiettes, the month of December means one thing: finals. Most of us will spend the first half of the month living in the library with an IV of coffee, and the second half of the month catching up on sleep. Believe it or not, December can still be as joyous as it once was when we were kids, and we are here to tell you why.

 

Christmas music is playing nonstop.

 

Pretty lights EVERYWHERE.

 

You never have to search for a movie to watch because 25 Days of Christmas is on.

 

It’s sweatshirt/fuzzy sock/puffy jacket season.

 

New York City is like a fairytale, if you’re lucky enough to go.

 

Your diet consists of hot chocolate and Christmas cookies.

 

Peppermint-flavored anything > Pumpkin Spice. Sorry not sorry.

 

The mall may be a zoo, but just remember gifts are coming your way too!

 

Endless holiday parties to go to.

 

And most importantly, the end of finals.
