Christmas is right around the corner, yet final exams are very close to Christmas break so you may not feel the Christmas spirit. The good news is there are many things you can do to feel the spirit.

-Play Christmas music! It is a mood lifter and a great way to get into this time of year.

-Decorate your house. If you decorate your house, you will surely feel the Christmas spirit every time you walk into your home.

-Make Christmas treats. They are delicious and a very fun thing to make with your family or your friends.

-Host or go to a Christmas party! Invite all your closest family and friends. A party is such a great idea to get into the Christmas spirit with yummy food and cool decorations.

-Buy cool Christmas pjs or even go a step further and host a pj party.

-Make crafts; this is an especially festive idea for people who have little siblings. 

-Give to others, give an extra offering at church, give to the homeless, or even help a friend.

-If you aren’t into decorating, appreciate those who love it. Drive or walk through a neighborhood and look at the beautiful decorations and lights.

-Play Christmas-themed games.

-Miami doesn’t exactly give “A White Christmas” vibe so if you plan to travel to a colder part of the world, enjoy the snow! Go sledding, skiing, or simply just play in the snow.

-Watch Christmas movies. This is a chill and easy way to help you feel the Christmas love. 

The most important thing is to just have fun, enjoy your Christmas break, and appreciate time with family or friends. However, you decide to spend the holidays, remember you are not alone.

Happy Holidays!
