Thanksgiving? Don't you mean Food Christmas?

Food Christmas Is My Favorite Holiday
Thanksgiving.com

Food Christmas is a wonderful time of the year. After Halloween, but not quite Christmas time yet, Food Christmas only comes once a year, so fill up as quick as you can. For some, they may call this wonderful holiday... Thanksgiving. While I agree with the whole "thanks" and "giving" part, its just that the time of the year is all wrong! Maybe if Thanksgiving was in August or September the name would be more appropriate. But, in the middle of November, lodged between everyone's 2 favorite holidays, Food Christmas is a great name for the holiday we all love to stuff our faces for. Because hey, they did it forever ago, so why not?

Food Christmas is to be celebrated with whoever you want! Family, friends, cats, fish, whoever or whatever you want. Be by yourself if you want to, as long as you eat as much as you possibly can. Bring in all the turkey, ham, stuffing, cranberry sauce... everything is so great to eat. Seeing all the food on the table during Food Christmas gives college kids the same feeling they got when they were kids and saw all the presents under their Christmas tree. Free food! Freshly made! Leftovers to take back to your dorm and chow down on until next Tuesday! Its every college kids dream, other than free tuition, of course.

Food Christmas is to eat everything in sight, and to give thanks to everything you've been blessed with from the year. I am thankful for all the food I am going to enjoy all year long... even the ramen noodles.

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.
