Whew! Finals are behind you, and you’re either en route or already home, hopefully, snuggled tightly between fluffy pillows and your dog. The natural progression is to then brew some cocoa and tune into some of your favorite Christmas movies. If you’re a millennial cynic like me, then you may notice the sheen fading from some childhood favorites. In honor of disillusionment, here’s a guide to help you

Aries, March 21 - April 19

Frosty the Snowman

Frosty may have a sunshine-y spirit, but let’s hope the weather doesn’t match it! In more capricious areas like the Midwest, Frosty will be safe for more than a day only if Hell, ahem, Chicago, freezes over. Enjoy your short, short existence Aries.

Taurus, April 20 - May 20

Clarence the Angel

I’m sure you’d like to spend Christmas Eve with family and friends, but if you’re Clarence the Angel you have to go save dudes with perfectly fine lives from jumping off of bridges. Instead of referring mentally ill people to a counselor, God sends down trepidacious angels to take people on the guilt trip of their lives. You, Taurus, are tasked with making people feel bad for being mentally ill. Take that, depression!

Gemini, May 21 - June 20

Santa’s Elves

Name five of Santa’s elves. Go ahead, I’ll wait.

That’s what I thought. I had to google it just to find that there’s that one in Rudolph with a dentistry degree, one in that Tim Allen movie named ‘Bernard’, and that Elf of ‘On The Shelf’ fame doesn’t get a name until some mom with too much time on her hands gives it one. You, Gemini, are like a teenage girl with a tattoo of an arrow or someone on the internet who thinks they’re original for making fun of teenage girls; a dime a dozen.

Cancer, June 21 - July 22

Ghost of Christmas Present

Heartburn. Heartburn forever.

Leo, July 23 - August 22

Ghost of Christmas Future

You spend all morning trying to look your best, getting ready for some haunting. Lipstick, contour, you even got your eyeliner to match for once. I mean, you’re absolutely slaying. And it’s all for nothing, because you’re hidden beneath a hood for 99% of the time, and at the last second you have to make yourself look like a skull, even though you’re obviously not a skull, what kind of calcium do you have to eat to make your bones do that?!? It’s depressing, it really is. Your life is just as futile, Leo.

Virgo, August 23 - September 22

Donner the Reindeer

I had to put ‘the reindeer’ up there because otherwise you might think I was talking about the Donner Party, which is about as Christmasy as a railroad spike to the eye. Again, do you know anything about Donner? They’re such a forgettable reindeer that half of the world are pretty sure their name is Donder. That’s how forgettable you are, dear Virgo. If people have heard of you at all, they’re not even sure what your name is.

Libra, September 23 - October 22

Jack Skellington

Jack, exhausted by his routine, tried to add variety to his life by doing (a form of) community service. It literally blew up in his face. So Libra, if you choose to try to change yourself, just know that it will probably end badly, and you really ought to just stay home.

Scorpio, October 23 - November 21

Buddy the Elf

Sure, you’re happy and cheerful now, and your girlfriend thinks it’s adorable. But dear Scorpio, the honeymoon period always ends eventually. First, you’ll probably die of diabetes by 35 (really? candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup? Candy corn isn’t even Christmas themed!). Second, the missus can’t handle the childish wonder act forever. Can you spell ‘divorce’ in the snow?

Sagittarius, November 22 - December 21

Jack Frost

Cold in the streets, chill in the sheets. Sorry Sagittarius.

Capricorn, December 22 - January 19

Ghost of Christmas Past

You’re either some weird little kid with fire for a head or a young very pretty lady forced to talk to old men for eternity. Not the best gig, Capricorn. Looks like you’re obsessed about everybody else’s old mistakes, which is not the best way to make new friends.

Aquarius, January 20 - February 18

Rudolph

Aquarius, you’re weird and no one likes you. Oh, suddenly your weirdness is useful at work? Now you’re admired for about 36 hours. And then you’ll go tumbling back to being the butt of everyone’s jokes, with the added bitterness of jealousy left over from your fifteen seconds of fame.

Pisces, February 19 - March 20

The Grinch

Heart attack. Sorry, man.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
