The Grinch tells all.

The First Semester Of College As Told By The Grinch

Jim Carrey as The Grinch acts as though he has been in college himself. He understands the ins and outs of trying to survive the first semester at college and the joys of getting to go home for Christmas. Here is the first semester of college as told by "The Grinch."

1. Looking at your class schedule.

Freshman register last, therefore they get the worst choice in classes.

2. When your friends invite you to go out.

3. Waking up to people screaming in the dorm halls.

Of course it always seems to happen in the middle of the night or really early in the morning.

4. Having to find something to wear. To anything.

Whether you're going to a party, Greek Life events, or a club parties, what you wear matters.

5. Forgetting that you have to do laundry and having to live with the consequences.

It happened to the best of us. You just couldn't find time to do laundry and you're stuck with the clothes you shouldn't have even brought to college in the first place.

6. Not having a normal eating schedule.

If you have to ask, you already know the answer.

7. Having class on the 3rd floor with no elevator.

It gets slightly easier as the semester goes on, but it's still never fun.

8. Finally getting the inspiration to write your next paper.

9. When finals are done and winter break starts.


December happens so quickly that Christmas is here before you know it.

10. When you get your final grades back.

At least you passed your class. Hopefully.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
