7 Quirks All ​"Hamilton" Fans Can Relate To​

1. You consider yourself an expert on all things history.

The Battle of Yorktown was fought in 1781 and the Election of 1800 was between Aaron Burr and Thomas Jefferson. The only reason you know this (besides sitting in history class) is because both of these facts were full-length rap songs in "Hamilton".

2. Because of this, high school history was the best time to show off your knowledge.

Giphy

Any mention of Alexander Hamilton, the Revolutionary War, or George Washington's presidency filled you with joy and prompted a swift showing off from you to impress the class (even though no one cared).

3. When "Hamilton" was up for every award under the sun, you prayed they'd win everything.

Giphy

The moment "Hamilton"'s name was announced as Best Musical at the Tony Awards, you definitely screamed.

4. You know every word to "Guns and Ships" and can rap them perfectly.

It's the fastest song on the album, but would you be a true fan if you didn't know all the words?

5. You try and convince all of your family members, friends, and even strangers to listen to it.

Giphy

You can't stop promoting this musical. "Hamilton"'s PR team should hire you for how much you tell everyone you know to listen to the album on Spotify.

6. You can't get over how well-written it is.

Giphy

Every lyric has meaning and every song is so beautifully written (you're biased, obviously).

7. You have chills even thinking about getting to see it in person.

Giphy

If you finally do, you know you'll cherish the memory forever.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
