Aren't I spot on?

If 'Parks And Recreation' Characters Had College Majors

The characters on the television show, "Parks and Recreation," are diverse. They are talented in all different areas which make them unique. Some are talkers, motivated, act like sociopaths and dreamers. If Leslie Knope and the gang were in college, I believe they would have these majors:

Andy Dywer: Undecided

From shoe-shinning to being an assistant to Leslie's campaign, Andy as done it all. He is just multi-interested— in everything! There is nothing wrong with that. Sometimes it takes a few years or so to find your niche.

Tom Haverford: Business and Marketing


While Tom failed at Entertainment 720, he did build up successful companies: Rent-A-Swag and Tom's Bistro. His creative ideas and motivation make him the perfect business and marketing major.

Ann Perkins: Nursing

Ann is a gentle and kind person and usually soothes Leslie in one of her crazy times. They are great qualities for nurses.

Leslie Knope: Political Science

As an independent, dedicated and hardworking individual, Knope succeeded in her dream of being part of Pawnee's council. Her obsessiveness over the government stands out throughout the series.

Chris Traeger: Exercise Sport Science

You can find Chris always talking about excising or eating healthy. He has only 2.8 percent of body fat due to his excessive exercising and dieting.

Ben Wyatt: Communications

While Ben seems to be a shy guy, he is a great talker— if he gets a word in edgewise with Leslie.

April Ludgate: Psychology

The awkward and strange April fits perfectly as the psychology major. Sometimes you don't understand her ideas or even what she says.

Ron Swanson: Fishery and Forestry

Instead of working for the Parks Department, Ron would rather live in his secluded cabin in the woods by himself—fishing, building things out of wood and enjoying the outdoors. He hates the government—even though he works for it.

"Parks and Rec" entertain you from start to finish. From their crazy adventures to their different personalities, Leslie Knope and the gang work well together. Did you agree with my choices for their majors?

It’s everyone’s favorite time of year. Christmastime is a celebration, but have we forgotten what we are supposed to be celebrating? There is a reason the holiday is called Christmas. Not presentmas. Not Santamas. Not Swiftmas. Christmas.

What many people forget is that there is no Christmas without Christ. Not only is this a time to spend with your family and loved ones, it is a time to reflect on the blessings we have gotten from Jesus. After all, it is His birthday.

Recently, an article on Total Sorority Move called 23 Things My Boyfriend Better Not Get Me For Christmas, was going around on social media.

I would like to represent the girlfriends out there who disagree with her standpoint -- the girlfriends who would be more than happy to receive any of these gifts from their boyfriends.
