Get the Heritage mug.Related Words
To live as a loner, by choice or not, despite the presence of other options; for spiritual reasons or other reasons; to spend time away from people to read, write, introspect, gain knowledge, learn about self, learn lessons from the past, learn about life. Sometimes it can be the result of a trauma or depression, too.
"I've already spent a lot of time hermitting about you. Had a lot to learn from this poking and questioning, but I think I covered most of the You question now."
For example, when you get dumped by a loved one, you'll often question yourself for a long time about what happened that caused the failure. Sometimes when you really want answers, you'll tend to avoid noise and people. This is what I call "hermitting". This behaviour can get compared to that of a hermit, because the person rather spend time alone, to think, than with people having fun and socializing.
Sometimes, after a major turn in life, hermitting can be a necessary phase of "digestion of events" before being able to move on.

Get the hermitude mug.Commercials made by the Historica association of Canada, outlining Canada's "achievements" in 60-second shorts. Considered by Canadians to be hilarious, people of any other nationality just don't get them.
I saw the Canadian Heritage Moment with the Mountie last night, eh? That's the best one.
No way- the Inukshuk one is by far the best.

Get the canadian heritage moments mug.The act of confining oneself from the social world for an extended period of time in order to study for that big test or to write that big paper. A person hermitnating doesn't talk to any of his/her friends and doesn't go out (even during the weekends!). Sounds similar to hibernating.
Nicole didn't go to the birthday party because she was hermitnating. She has three midterms, AND she's applying to pharm school!
