You might be the Grinch if...

Are you a mean one? Are you as cuddly as a cactus?

All the Who's down in Whoville are the readiest for Christmas more than anyone else. They've had their homes decorated since the day after Halloween (I'm sure of it) and they've wrapped a present every day of the month.

Who's down in Whoville prepare for their Who-feast, with plenty of roast beast. They wear their most outrageous clothing for Christmas, where no sweater is too ugly, and everyone is welcome to participate in Whoville festivities.

But what about those that aren't big fans of Christmas? What about those whose ears burn when they hear "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" or "All I want for Christmas is You"? And those that hate wrapping presents or can't ever seem to find something nice to wear for Christmas dinner?

If you feel like you're one of those people, well, you might just be the Grinch.

Being a Grinch isn't all that bad. You're usually left alone year round, to wallow in your own self-pity, while feeling an intense amount of self-loathing. You stress eat, eat up all your feelings, and even eat when you're bored. It's just an easier life when you're a Grinch. Sure, you're as charming as an eel and your heart's an empty hole and you've got all the tender sweetness as a seasick crocodile, but at least you're one mean green machine!

So, you might be a Grinch if:

You can't find an outfit, so you've decided you're not going out anymore.

Your only friend is a mangy, yet adorable, dog.

You hate feelings. Every feeling. All feelings.

You have big plans, like solving world hunger, but telling no one. 

You hate parties and social gatherings, especially Ugly Christmas Sweater parties.

You hate Christmas songs. 

You're awkward in every social interaction, ever.

You like to eat, and eat, and eat.

You're full of yourself, but you also hate yourself.

You might just have a soft spot for Christmas after all.

Maybe.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
