I Ranked Taylor Swift's Albums From Worst To Best, And I Don't Care What It Does To My Reputation

YouTube//Taylor Swift

It was tough because Taylor is a genius, but here it is. And, no, I will not be taking constructive criticism.

7. "Taylor Swift"

As much as I love little Taylor and her curly hair, I think we can all agree that the self-titled "Taylor Swift" is the weakest link. I love you "Tim McGraw" and "Picture to Burn," but you come in last.

6. "Fearless"

"Fearless" was a strong second album, no doubt. Who doesn't love Taylor in sparkly dresses whipping her long hair around? More cohesive than the debut but still a weaker link than the other albums, I have to give number six to "Fearless." Sorry, "Fifteen." You were basically my freshman year.

5. "1989"

As much as I LOVE this album and all its sarcastic, pop, love-song-y glory, it's still got a few skips (I'm so sorry, "Shake It Off") and I just can't justify putting it any higher on the list.

4. "Lover"

I love how "Lover" is a mature, diverse, Taylor-owned glory, but this era has been like radio silence for not being "reputation."

3. "Speak Now"

Ballgowns. Self written. Wonderstruck. "Haunted." Amazing.

2. "Red"

The cross between country and pop, making turning 22 a new landmark, the newfound maturity, the raw emotion before the media decided to make Taylor their personal punching bag. Chef's kiss.

1. "reputation"

From pop princess to I will ruin your life. Best comeback of any pop star. Ever. The dark, experimental, choreo-heavy era was to die for. That's that. (Justice for "Getaway Car," tho.)

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

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 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.
