25 Ways Seniors And The Grinch Are The Same

Universal Studios

The Grinch is quickly becoming one of the internet's favorite Christmas characters. He has always had a special place in my heart, but it wasn't until the last time I watched the live-action movie that I realized how much I relate to him. So here are 25 ways seniors and the Grinch are the exact same.

1. This is your reaction when people come into the room while you're studying

Seriously though, don't you know I'm trying to graduate??

2. And this is exactly what commuting looks like

Don't even @ me.

3. What you want to say when the teacher's pet asks about an assignment that was due today

Shut up, Karen! Don't you know you're the only one who did it??

4. You see freshmen like Cindy Lou

They are so excited for all the adventures ahead.

5. Can't relate to them

You'd think that 4 years wouldn't make such a difference!

6. And their complaints about stress

7. But hanging out with them results in you having a little more life

8. When friends bring up the fact you won't be around next year

You can't help but feel all the feels.

9. So you send everyone encouraging notes through the mailroom

10. And go to ALL the events.

Concerts, parties, movie nights, bowling? Sure, I'll be there!

11. You have eaten because you're bored... or stressed... or both.

12. Sometimes you forget to interact with people

13. And finding the perfect outfit to go out is a struggle

But you slay once you find one.

14. Looking at all of your homework like

Why. Is. Everything. Due. All. At. Once.

15. Being completely overwhelmed by the sheer amount of all you have to get done

You might even schedule it.

16. Telling yourself you'll work out more this year

17. When you actually avoid procrastinating finishing your homework

18. And your definition of cleaning looks something like this

We've all done it.

19. How you feel about your friends

20. Being proud of the dinner you made them

21. Because it usually looks like this

22. Chilling at home on a Saturday

23. As soon as you see any drama you're out

24. Looking back at the last semester like

When you totally lost your cool.

25. You'll be SO happy when graduation finally arrives

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

17 Things You Can Only Relate To If You Grew Up With Strict Parents

Sleepovers are not a thing. They're just not.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

Living Away From Home, As Described By 'Friends'

For better or for worse

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
