This Is What Your Starbucks Holiday Drink Tells You About Your College Major

Because we all want a sarcastic description to tell us what holiday drink best fits our major us.

It is finally the holiday season, and college students are stressing out over what brings the beginning of this time of year... finals. If you're anything like me, you're probably procrastinating studying by drinking a Starbucks coffee and wishing you were someplace warm. But, since we can't even think about traveling until mid-December, we stay cozied up in the library trying to figure out what holiday coffee best describes our major, while also wondering if drinking that coffee will bring us any luck on finals (it probably won't, but a girl can dream).

1. Education.

Peppermint Mocha

Congrats, you're a crowd favorite! Almost everyone buys one of these during the holidays, just like almost everyone at Longwood is an education major! Your students probably use this drink to replace you over winter break, but once January hits, they are tired of peppermint and want their sweet teacher back.

2. Math/Finance.

Holiday Christmas Blend Drip Coffee

You really can't mess up a drip coffee, but there is a right way to make it and a wrong way to make it. Same with math; there's only one right answer, and if you don't get it, you need to start all over...

3. Business/Economics.

Holiday Spice Flat White

You're probably super serious around this time of year, but let's be honest, you're serious 24/7. You don't like to make things too special, but you're willing to drink your signature espresso with a little holiday flair. But if anyone asks, you're drinking a boring espresso, no questions asked.

3. Psychology

Gingerbread Latte

You're not fully sweet, but you sure do tell it as it is. Some people think you're kind of weird because they either don't like gingerbread or are afraid to try it, but once they do, they'll love you forever.

5. Biology/Chemistry.

Toasted White Chocolate Mocha

Wow, you're way too long and confusing to be a drink title, which is the exact way I feel about biology/chemistry. If I can't say it or pronounce it, I'm not drinking it. End of story. But, if you're one of those people who love this drink, more for you!

6. Communication Sciences and Disorders.

Eggnog Latte

You're a lot more difficult for people to get on board with. You can either do it or you can't; There's no in between. Just like what all our professors tell us, you'll be very hard to like and get into, but once you do, it's smooth sailing from there (kinda).

7. Nursing.

Chestnut Praline Latte

Well, you just sound complicated- and that's exactly what being a nursing major is like. If you don't have this drink made the correct way, you're screwed. This is the same if your a nurse treating a patient.

If you think your major and drink don't match up, tough cookies. Switch your major or learn to like your drink.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.

15. “Let’s set each other’s lonely nights, Be each other’s paradise.”

16. “Trippin’ on skies, sippin’ waterfalls."

17. “Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days.”

18. “But you will remember me for centuries.”

19. “Something about you makes me feel like a dangerous woman."

20. “Don’t act like it’s a bad thing to fall in love with me.”

21. “Darling, I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream.”

22. “Find me where the wild things are.”

23. “I’m high on lovin’ you.”

24. “If you’re gonna be somebody’s heartbreak, somebody’s mistake, if you’re gonna be somebody’s first time, somebody’s last time, be mine.”

25. “Don’t be afraid to take the road less traveled on.”

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

1. "Talk about a dream Try to make it real You wake up in the night With a fear so real Spend your life waiting For a moment that just don't come Well don't waste your time waiting." (Badlands)

2. "It's a town full of losers/ I'm pulling out of here to win" (Thunder Road)

3. "You've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above" (Tunnel of Love)

4. "I got something in my heart/ I been waitin' to give/ I got a life I wanna start/ One I been waitin' to live" (Leah)

5. “God have mercy on the man/ Who doubts what he’s sure of” (Brilliant Disguise)

7. “Is a dream a lie when it don’t come true, or is it something worse?” (The River)

Well don't waste your time waiting." (Badlands)
