For most of us, Christmas was an exciting time during our childhood. It was a time of anticipation, waiting for the fat man to come down the chimney and place gifts around the tree. This was such a great time of the year and we had only one worry in the world: what to put on the list.

With finals rolling around the same time as Christmas, it is much more stressful. But it is still an exhilarating time. Just because we are older and perhaps do not believe in Santa anymore does not mean we don’t look forward to this time of year.

College guys truly do not care what they receive for Christmas. All we really care about are sports, drinking and girls. That’s why you rarely see a Christmas list by a 21-year-old guy.

Instead, we have more of a “dream list” and this is not a seasonal list, but rather a year-long list. For most seniors, we probably would joke about asking for a job. I’m pretty realistic so I’m not asking for one and instead, I am asking for another Patriots Super Bowl appearance. Mainly so they will televise Gisele in the crowd. That’s a win-win gift and even if you’re not a Pats fan, you got admit that Brady’s girl is a smoke show.

Next on the list: enough beer to last me through the break. With over a month off from school, guys would only enjoy being in one state of mind: blacked out. Winter break is a much longer version of spring break without the warm weather and the babes in bikinis. At least you can grab a 30 and go tubing down your town’s most notorious hill. Throw the beers in the snow and it will make this childish adventure very eventful.

The final wish is a chick. Most of us would love to find one like Tebow’s, but beggars can’t be choosers. Therefore as long as she puts out and doesn’t talk in your ear, she’s a keeper. Best case scenario, you meet her after the holiday so you don’t waste you dough on a gift.

It is not about the possessions for guys. You could honestly give a guy a sixer of Busch light, a television with ESPN, and a playboy and I guarantee he’d be happy. So you will not be seeing guys asking for UGG boots. Oh wait I forgot, this is Fairfield U.
