How You Know You Really Are The Grinch

I seriously relate to him way too much.

How You Know You Really Are The Grinch

I'm sure everyone has heard of the Grinch. He is the green, angry dude from How The Grinch Stole Christmas, and Jim Carrey played him in the real life version. Growing up, I feel like we were taught to dislike the Grinch. I mean, he hated Christmas! How could someone hate Christmas?! However, now that I have grown up and looked back at the movie, I have realized something.

I am the Grinch.

And no, not as in I hate Christmas.

Looking back at any children's movie, you suddenly understand all the connotations and bad jokes. You can finally relate. This is how I realized I literally am the Grinch. He is basically my aesthetic. By looking at this, you may suddenly realize that you too seriously relate to the Grinch.

You love Christmas music, but also hate it.

When you don't get invited to something so you just make up an excuse for why you don't want/couldn't go anyway.

When you would rather be alone than going out, so you come up with random excuses.

When you are iffy about going out so you blame it on your clothing.

When you start to develop a crush.

When you tell someone who is being annoying to shut up and they continue to bother you.

Your definition of a workout.

When you get broken up with or just hate certain things that happened.

When you get a cute new outfit and do a fashion show for your family.

When your crush is going to a party so you decide to go out for once.

When you get an outfit that shows off your curves.

When you're pissed and just want to do this.

When your mom tells you to ask your friends to hang out but looking through your contacts you realize you don't have friends/ hate everyone.

When you ask yourself this question daily.

When you get your picture taken and feel like a model.

When you really don't want to go out/ actually do this.

When your mom tells you to smile for the picture.

When your crush actually likes you back.

When you realize who you really are.


When something doesn't fit so you make up an excuse.


When you are having a bad day and ask for something and you get a "no."

When this is a daily task for you.


When you are so frustrated you literally just flail around.

When you realize Christmas is coming soon.

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.
