6 Reasons Why It’s Totally Ok to Get into the Holiday Spirit

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

Halloween ended, Thanksgiving passed and it is now the first of December, which means it is totally time to get into the holiday spirit! Here are some reasons why it is completely and totally okay to get into the Christmas spirit:

1. The Music

Now when I say Christmas music, I really mean belting out Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” because let’s be honest, that’s the best part of the holiday season!

 

2. Justin Bieber

Let’s not forget about that bomb Christmas album Justin Bieber put out in 2011. Still bump to that in my car.

3. Decorations

Ever since Halloween ended, every store has been selling holiday decorations. Seeing all the beautiful red, green, and gold decorations makes me want to wrap myself up in tinsel.

4. Starbucks

Starbucks has already gotten into the holiday spirit by using those iconic classic red cups that are only used during the holidays.

5. Shopping

Shopping during the holidays is absolutely chaotic! So get in the Christmas spirit and start your shopping early so you don’t get trampled at the mall.

6. Skipping Thanksgiving

Let’s be honest, the holidays go straight from Halloween to Christmas.
