I'm sure you all over read Dr. Seuss' "How The Grinch Stole Christmas," as well as the live action film that debuted in 2000. Most of us have seen the movie, and I believe we can all agree that Jim Carrey's portrayal of the title character was pretty dang brilliant. Rather than the grumpy, furry Scrooge in the book, the film wrote the Grinch as being a green, lovable introvert. Here's a list of reasons why the Grinch is a boss and basically me.

1. He accurately described what we all do while looking through our high school yearbook.

Giphy

We all have those people.

2. He voiced one of the biggest first world problem of all.

Giphy

SAME.

3. He knew when it was necessary to leave the house.

Giphy

After at least four hours of Netflix and chill...

4. He was humble when it counted.

Giphy

After you, peasant.

5. He taught us we can't go out without the perfect outfit.

Giphy

Nope.

6. He experienced first hand that people could be cruel.

Giphy

"It's because I'm green, isn't it?!"

7. He was so blunt, it hurt.

Giphy

Well dang.

8. He taught us that alone time is essential.

Giphy

Stop putting off your "me time."

9. He was the first to experience the dreaded feels.

Giphy

IT HURTS.

10. He knew that healthy food was a big no-no.

Giphy

Forget the Who pudding. Get that roast beast!

11. He taught us how to love properly.

Giphy

" Oh Max. I love ya!"

12. He had no shame. None.

Giphy

"You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch."

13. He knew the pain of unwanted, embarrassing memories.

Giphy

"Max! Fetch me my sedative!"

14. Did I mention his experience with the feels?

Giphy

"And they say his heart grew three sizes that day."

15. He expressed both the joy and dread of Christmas.

Giphy

It's both exciting and painful.

16. He knew how irritating people could be.

Giphy

This is literally me when someone is whining about something so stupid.

17. He taught us it's okay to cry.

Giphy

"I'm all...toasty inside."

18. He taught us to prioritize.

Giphy

"Solve world hunger. Tell no one."

19. He showed us to finish everything with grace.

Giphy

"I'm number one! I'm number one!"

20. He expressed the disdain of getting ugly clothes for Christmas.

Giphy

Especially the clothes your relatives get you... *shudder*

21. Speaking of Christmas, his description of its music was on point.

Giphy

I love it, yet despise it.

22. He was a softie underneath that green fur and spite, just like you and I.

Giphy

We're all good people on the inside. Don't let our outer grinches fool you.

23. He was all of us when we declared we were going to shed some pounds.

Giphy

"Yes! Down a size and a half!"

24. And lastly, he told us the sad truth about children.

Giphy

"How dare you enter The Grinch's lair?!"



Just like Mr. Grinch, don't touch me with a thirty nine and a half foot pole!

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Letter To My High School Friend Group

The girls I will never forget.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.
