College Life As Told By The Cast Of 'Gilmore Girls'

Throughout the course of "Gilmore Girls," viewers have watched Rory go from a small high school freshman to a brilliant college graduate. We watched as she struggled and succeeded during her time at Yale.

We watched and admired all of the support her family and friends gave her. We even watched as she dropped out of college (something we sometimes wish we could do) and then started school again. Even though Rory seems to be an incredible genius, she goes through the same types of college experiences as everyone else. Here are a few examples of college life as told by the cast of "Gilmore Girls."

1. When you have to wake up for your 8 a.m.

2. When your professor writes something on the board and you have no idea what it means.

3. When you are too drunk to know what you are drinking.

4. When your test or essay gets pushed back.

5. How you feel as you wait in the Starbucks line.

6. When you are bored in lecture and try to find a way to get out.

7. When you find someone who hates a class or professor as much as you do.

8. When you need a friend to hold you up.

9. When you can't get up to go to class.

10. When you are excited to eat take out or non-cafeteria food.

11. When your professor asks you a question because you weren't paying attention.

12. Your goal for college.

13. Your daily mental breakdown.

14. How you feel every Monday.

15. When your professor assigns a group project.

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.

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

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.
