Every College Girl's Dating Life, As Told By The Grinch
c1.staticflickr.com

When we were kids, we all used to think the Grinch was terrible, cranky and mean at the beginning of the movie until he started loving Christmas. We then got older, became adults and realized... we are the Grinch.

From wanting to sit home all day and do nothing, sometimes despise social interaction and the only person we love is our dog. A lot of people push relationships during the holidays because they want someone to spoil and to cuddle with during the winter season.

But if you think like the Grinch, dating is a little harder than you think.

1. Swiping on Tinder for hours unable to find someone because you're picky

2.  When you think you're better off single

3. Stuffing your face because you don't have someone to share with you

4. When you cancel a date because you can't find anything to wear

5. Catching feelings

6. Finally finding THE outfit for date night

7. Giving into going out with him

8. When he doesn't text back

9. When your ex reaches out to you seeing that you're with someone else

10. Realizing that he really does care

11. Saying those three words for the first time

We've all been the Grinch at least once... or maybe twice. Happy Holidays!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
