Tips from Tyler: Holidays

1. Couples: Alright if you didn't already know I have a girlfriend and so I am going to give a few tips about the dating during the holidays. So if you live close to Fayetteville or are staying the the Fayetteville area during the holiday break one of the first things I would suggest is for guys to take your girlfriend down to the Fayetteville Square to see the lights and take pictures. You will definitely need to just need to pay the money and take her on a carriage ride at the square. (By the way she will love it and if you have something special to give her this is a good time!) If you don't live around Fayetteville then take your girlfriend out to see Christmas lights. I haven't done this one yet, but I think I will do it sometime soon (sorry not this year Ginny since I know you read my blog), and that is along with the gifts that you buy your significant other you should also make a gift for them. Hand-made gifts are more special most of the time and will make your significant other feel good that you care enough for them to take time to make something for them. For New Year's Eve make sure you spend time with your significant other if you all live close enough to do that. You can spend time with family or go to a party but just make sure that the two of you are together and that at midnight you get your New Year's kiss.


2. Families: I am one of the fortunate ones here at the U of A that my family lives close enough to campus for me to see them quite a bit, but if you aren't then Christmas Break is one of the few times a year that everyone can go home and see there family for a while. Cherish your time with your family, especially during this holiday season. Try to spend a lot of time with them and do all of the fun holiday activities with them. I know that in our family we love to put up our Christmas tree and decorations together. My tip for families though would be to buy your presents (or make them) early so that you don't have to spend Christmas Eve scouring the empty shelves of the stores to find a present for all of your family.

Good luck on your finals everyone!!! Have a great and relaxing break!!! Have a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!!!
