13 Life Lessons From The Gilmore Girls

1. Coffee makes everything better.

No matter what time of the day it is, a nice hot cup of coffee will do you good.


2. You can’t force anything in life, including love.

All you can do in life is try, and if something does not work out the way that you wished it would have, it most likely was not meant to happen or for you to have.


3. Sometimes the person you are meant to fall in love with, has been there all along.

Don't go looking for the person you are meant to be with. When the time is right, they will come into your life and everything will work out. Patience is key.

4. Your mom is one of the most important people in your life.

Don't ever take your mom for granted. She is the one who has been there from day one. She has been your number one fan, your personal cook and your nurse. She would go to the end of the world for you because you are her baby. The love between a mother and child is unbreakable.

5. Don’t give up.

If you ever feel like quitting, just think of your dreams and how far you have come. If you put your mind to it, you can achieve anything.

6. Money is not everything.

You might not be the richest in the world, but you do what you can with what you have. You learn to work for what you want, and in the end, it will all work out. Money does not solve every problem in the world. Most importantly, you can't buy your happiness.

7. Follow your dreams.

Don't give up on yourself. If you have a dream, go for it! If you fail, get back up and try again. Great things do not happen on the first try.

8. It is OK to need your mom.

Your mom needs you just as much as you need her. If you miss her, she probably misses you too. It does not mean that you are a child or are weak because you need her, everyone needs their mom every once in awhile.

9. Sarcasm is needed in life.

Who doesn't use sarcasm in their everyday life? It keeps conversations going and keeps everyone on their toes.

10. Sometimes you need to take a break and go on an adventure.

In the most stressful parts of life, an unexpected road trip is needed. Take your mind off of things and go somewhere new. Maybe, even try it without a map!

11. Be proud of who you are.


Never regret the choices that you made that got you to where you are today. Instead, look back and be proud of how far you have come and how your decisions made a positive impact on your life.

12. Take chances.

Every once in awhile, you need to take a chance. Let loose and do something that you have never done before. How do you know that you won't like it if you never try it?

13. No matter what, family is family.

You may fight every day and not get along, but you are still family. Family will be by your side until the end. You are who you are today because of them. You may have not picked them out, but you would probably choose them anyways.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
