If Girl Scout Cookies Were People On Campus

Every cookie has its equivalent on campus.

If Girl Scout Cookies Were People On Campus

If you survey each student on college campuses across the country, you'll find one thing that they all have in common: a love of Girl Scout cookies. But, if you think about it a little more you'll find that the types of students on campus are similar to our favorite cookies.

Thin-Mints: The Athletes

Thin Mints are the thinnest people on campus. They are the athletes we love to cheer them on and to be around. We spend money on them every year because we can’t get enough buying their jerseys, going to their games and making sure that we never wash the one shirt of ours they touched. We get excited when we see them out in public because we know that it is going to be a while until we can see them again.

Samoas: The Overachievers

Samoas are the people that magically have it all figured out. While the rest of us are struggling to get our coconut to stick to our cookies, they poured chocolate over it so it would all stick together. When you ask a Samoa if they have a minute they say “of course.” But they only mean a minute, because they have to dash off to run a meeting, see their boss or finish their 10 page paper that is due tomorrow -- that they haven’t started yet, but will still get an A on.

Tagalongs: The Greeks

You’ll always find a Tag-a-long in a large group of Greeks. They always talk about their sorority sisters or their frat brothers. Their Facebook profile picture is always a different flyer for a philanthropy event that their sorority or fraternity is holding. Tag-a-longs are all about Greek life and are decked out in their colored frockets and letters on their jackets. They might have a chocolate coating on the outside but their inside is pure Greek-loving peanut butter.

Trefoils: The Bookworms

Trefoils have a very simple purpose in life which is to get straight A’s. They are always in the library or in the MLC and are dedicated to their education. They are the ones that get A's in their Organic Chemistry classes when everyone else is struggling to maintain their D’s. Trefoils are the students who will be accepted by Harvard Law School and Duke Medical School. There isn’t much to them other than their insane drive to get straight A’s.

Savannah Smiles: The Transfer Student

Savannah Smiles are relatively new on campus. They transferred recently and don’t know many people but they are always smiling and trying to meet new people. They try to get involved in as many organizations as possible and get their face out there. After they're comfortable with the scene, they will be like the rest of the cookies.

Do-Si-Dos: The Party Animals

Do-si-dos are the party animals on campus. They are always downtown and it seems like they never do homework. They drink more than an entire AA group. They don’t seem to care about their grades and they aren’t on scholarship so their GPA's don’t matter to them. Do-si-dos have that "C’s get Degrees" mentality.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
