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!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
