15 Of Lorelai Gilmore's Most Relatable Moments
The Telegram

Up until two months ago, I always had this plan: I would meet someone in college (preferably someone nice), we would date for a period of time (longer than two years, less than seven), get married, and then have two children. I, personally, thought this plan was a very good one. This was until I started watching "Gilmore Girls." If you smiled automatically just now, I like you already. The wildly successful early 2000's hit TV series centers around a hilarious, food-obsessed, quick witted mother daughter duo living with interesting neighbors in a small Connecticut town called Stars Hallow. The show has completely changed my outlook on my plan. I no longer feel the pressure to live with a husband in a busy city; Instead, I want to be Lorelai Gilmore. I want to own my own inn and live in a nice house and become a regular at a diner and love coffee as much as Lorelai does. Why is this? Well, because she is incredible and funny and exactly the type of woman — and mom — I want to be some day. To celebrate my newest Netflix addiction, and my absolute favorite TV mom, here are some of Lorelai Gilmore's most relatable moments:

1. Actually being honest about love:

2. When someone tries to tell you something exciting way too early in the morning:

3. Looking forward to doing something with someone and then they cancel:

4. When someone gives you "constructive" criticism:

5. Every Sunday night, laying in bed:


6. After Christmas is over, but it's still cold and snowy:


7. When you're listening to your best friend rant about a person you've always hated:


8. When you have dinner guests over for the first time:

9. Knowing you should always look on the bright side:

10. Every time you're in an awkward situation and need to make small talk:

11.Having the perfect Sunday plans:

12. Knowing the importance of time management and chocolate during any shopping excursion:


13. Listening to your friend complain about her boyfriend while knowing full well that she really does love him so you settle with:

14. Telling a story and realizing that no one is listening and then realizing that's what happens to you at every family gathering:

15. Trying to explain yourself after attempted (and failed) flirting:

"Gilmore Girls" is the always interesting, real, and hilariously funny coming-of-age story about a single mom doing her best raising her brilliant daughter in the most adorable little town. It's witty and sarcastic and sometimes rude, but is always entertaining — and Lorelai Gilmore never disappoints. For anyone who hasn't watched "Gilmore Girls," I highly recommend it (if you didn't get that hint already).

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
