20 Signs You're Actually the Grinch
How The Grinch Stole Christmas

As a child, The Grinch was an entertaining story of a scary green "villain" who finds the value in Christmas and is redeemed at the very end. Because at that age, you can relate to the Who's overwhelming love of Christmas.

But as you grow up, you realize that the Grinch may not actually be the villain of this story. In fact, you start to see that it has become easier to relate to the Who's resident shut-in.

Maybe the Grinch wasn't evil after all. Poor guy was probably just sick of the holiday crowds and simply wanted to be left alone with his pet and Netflix. And what's so wrong with that?

If you can relate with that, chances are the Grinch is your spirit animal.

1. You react to most things like this:


(Especially people.)


2. This is you when you go shopping or hang out with other people:


3. So you're probably more inclined to stay at home.



4. And are pretty upset when someone comes by. Especially if they do so uninvited.



5. But there are times you do get a little lonely.


6. And as long as they don't talk too much, it's all good.



7. You keep your schedule super busy.



8. But you always leave yourself time for the important things in life.


9. You find that you're sometimes faced with life's most important questions.


10. There are moments you feel randomly happy.



11. And others that make you consider adding "Life Alert" to your Christmas list.


12. With all of these feelings, you're probably overanalyzing a few things.


13. Speaking of feelings, everyone else is probably still randomly inviting you to events that all overlap each other.


14. Outfits determine whether or not you go.


15. And sometimes you go just to make others feel as uncomfortable as you feel.


16. Some people may think you're "too mean for Christmas."


17. Or may flat out tell you to "grow a heart."


18. But who cares? You crack yourself up, and that's what matters.


19. You grumble and groan at the beginning of the Christmas season.


20. But eventually, you succumb to the holiday spirit.


Don't worry. We still love you, Grinch!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
