Christmas is, in fact, the best time of the year. Of course, we cannot forget about Thanksgiving, but, unfortunately for Thanksgiving, Christmas is kind of like the cooler older sibling.

I mean, come on, Christmas has Christmas trees, decorations, snow, presents, my birthday and the best of all — Christmas cookies!

Christmas cookies are often enjoyed for their delectable taste, but a little-known fact is that they are also perfect for describing college majors! Here is the definitive ranking of some college majors as Christmas cookies!

1. Art Majors: Sugar Cookies

Just like Sugar Cookies, Art majors come up with unique ways to do the same thing — they're always looking for a way to elevate a project or assignment. Just like how sugar cookies come in tons of different shapes, sizes and host various decorations.

2. Business Majors: Gingerbread Cookies

Just like Gingerbread cookies, business majors are a classic staple. They're versatile and appropriate for many different holiday occasions, just like business majors can take a variety of career paths.

3. Journalism/Communication Majors: Dipped Ginger Cookies

Communication and Journalism majors have a strict way of doing things — they know exactly how to get the story they want through an age-old process. However, they aren't afraid to try something new to get the story they want, either, just like how dipping these classic cookies in white chocolate gives them a new look, trying out a new story method can give a story a fresh angle as well.

4. English Majors: Peppermint Cookies

English majors often get questioned about the practicality of their major, similarly, peppermint cookies often get questioned because mints already exist. But, just like English majors — peppermint cookies are a vital force in the world.

5. History Majors: Christmas Tree Cookies

Christmas trees are a staple symbol of Christmastime — similarly, history majors are able to tell you all about the important or notorious events from different points in history!

6. Biology Majors: Snowball Cookies

Biology majors are always up for a new experiment to discover something new — just like how snowball cookies can be filled with many different things and are always a surprise!

7. Psychology Majors: Lemon Curd Sandwich Cookies

Seemingly straightforward, but actually one of the hardest majors to study (and cookies to make) out there!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

1."But what would happen if we all tried to be like Santa and learned to give as only he can give: of ourselves, our talents, our love and our hearts? Maybe we could all learn Santa's beautiful lesson and maybe there would finally be peace on Earth and good will toward men."

"Sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see."

"If you won't use your heart, who cares if it gets broken? If you just keep it to yourself, maybe it'll be like my rollerblades. When you do decide to try it, it won't be any good. You should take a chance. Got nothing to lose."

"Remember, no man is a failure who has friends."

"Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it."

"If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find a that love actually is all around."

"Sometimes things look good on paper, but lose their luster when you see how it affects real folks. I guess a healthy bottom line doesn't mean much if to get it, you have to hurt the ones you depend on."

"'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.'"

"Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to."

"There's room for everyone on the nice list."
