It's December!

So it only just hit me that it’s ACTUALLY December! I love this month!

Once again, I’m writing this blog post to avoid homework and finals preparation, and I thought I would enlighten my [very few] devoted readers as to what goes on in the loveliest month of the year.

Now, I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking I only like December because of Christmas. Now, it is DEFINITELY a highlight [okay, maybe THE highlight], but December has so much MORE to offer! For example, did you know that the entire month of December is “Read a New Book” month? I KNOW. Mind blowing. So I thought I would prepare a list of “holidays” that occur in December that show how great this month REALLY is:

December month observances

• Hi Neighbor month
• National Stress Free Family Holiday month
• Read a New Book month
• Universal Human Rights month
• Write to a Friend month

December 1: Eat a Red Apple Day/National Pie Day — Let me just say, I amdevastated that this day has already passed. A day dedicated to two wonderful foods, and I missed out! I am so bummed.
