The Struggles of a College Student, as Told By The Grinch

I've never related to anybody more.

So we all know who the Grinch is, right? It's one of my favorite movies no matter what time of year, and I find myself relating to him more and more as I get older! I think a twenty-something year old human who is (kind of) an adult can definitely relate to a lot of the things he says and does. Here are some of them!

1. You struggle between watching Netflix and actually being social when you have free time.

We all need a nice night out every once in awhile, but laying in your bed covered with a pile of blankets sounds so much more appealing!

2. You do a variety of things as a result of boredom.

Ever find yourself eating straight out of a tub of ice cream when you should be studying or doing something productive? Because I sure do...

3. You sometimes have days where you just can't do anything right.

Do you sometimes seem to feel like, well, an idiot? Don't worry, we all feel like that every now and then! Just take one step at a time!

4. You sometimes tend to just....lay there and question everything about life.

And it seems to happen more often than not!

5. When you're really struggling in a class and just can't find any motivation:

We have to have at least one every year!

6. The struggle between staying in and going out on the weekends:

But your bed is so cozy!

7. When you have a crush and don't know what to do about it:

Been there done that!

8. When you can't seem to find time for yourself...

As much as you try, you can't seem to sit down and take some time for yourself!


I don't think I've ever related to anything more in my life. We love you, Mr. Grinch!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
