Out of all of the Christmas movies around, Dr. Suess' How the Grinch Stole Christmas is by far one of my faves! Although the original cartoon film is a classic, I can't help but love the Grinch played by Jim Carey. He is sarcastic, and brutally honest, two of my favorite things. Although he is a hairy, green, recluse living on top of a mountain, he is one of the most relatable characters of all time! So I've put together the top 20 moments in which the Grinch totally embodies the holidays!
1. Trying to console yourself after finals.
At least I tried hard!
2. Getting in your bed for the first time in months.
Nothing you can say will make me get up!
3. Trying to figure out who you should visit with.
Not everyone's bad... just all the people in the phone book.
4. Finding that perfect dress for the holiday party.
Gotta look good for the homies up North!
5. And realizing you don't have it.
If you've got nothing to wear, it's simple, you can't go out.
6. Trying to do everything you can over break.
Everyone's schedules are so busy during the holidays.
7. Making cameo appearances here and there.
Stop by, snag some food, and run!
8. But still leaving room for "me time."
It's important to schedule alone time, for your mental health!
9. When your mom says you need to get out of the house.
Fiiiiiiine.
10. And you see your squad for the first time.
I'm back fam!
11. Taking selfie after selfie with that good holiday lighting.
It would be a shame to waste an opportunity to bask in your own glory.
12. And stopping to admire all of the holiday decor.
Why can't everything sparkle all of the time?!?
13. Watching all of those Christmas movies that give you the feels.
I can't take these emotions!
14. Forcing your siblings to listen to all of those classic holiday jams!
How can you not want to listen to Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You"???
15. Trying every single holiday dessert known to exist.
No dessert shall go untasted!
16. And continuing to eat nonstop.
Why am I still eating? I don't even like these cookies.
17. Trying to fit in a little exercise here and there.
Any little thing counts!
18. Continuously having your self-depreciation validated by your siblings.
They're always a little too quick to shoot you down...
19. When someone brings up politics at a family gathering.
Nope. Just nope.
20. And last but not least... When you have to go shopping on Christmas eve.
Please, just let me buy this scarf and leave, I beg of you!
