It's time to acknowledge our favorite young woman raised by a young, single mom in the charmingly tiny town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut. That's right, people, it's time to recognize the one and only, Rory Gilmore. As the fans of ABC Family's hit series, "Gilmore Girls," watched Rory grow up from a bookish, shy sixteen-year-old into a poised and confident Yale graduate, we admired her intelligence, wit, and thoughtful self.
While we may not all be thrilled with how Rory was portrayed in the Netflix revival series, "Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life" (that's a story for a different day), perhaps Rory's best quality is the fact that she is truly a reflection of every struggling college student out there. So here, in gif form, are __ of Rory's most relatable moments:
When you thought you could handle an 8 am class:
Wrong.
And your physical and emotional survival essentially revolves around caffeine:
When you finally make it off campus for food, and you realize you've forgotten how to act:
When you have three minutes left in class, and your professor opens up a new set of slides:
When you casually want to be informed what actually went down last weekend:
Then your friend fills you in on what DID go down:
When your professor tries to act interested in the class's personal lives:
Yeah, yeah, just get to the lecture already.
When you realize you haven't worked out in quite awhile:
When you're asked what time you'll finish the paper that's due at noon tomorrow:
When you have the one friend who always provides WAY too much information:
When you drown your stress in sugar:
When you know you can't do everything, so you have to prioritize:
When you think about asking a question in class, but decide not to:
When you finally take your overflowing trash out:
When you volunteer to be the sober friend at a party:
When all you want is some good comfort food:
When you call your mom after realizing you are supposed to be an adult:
When you have a day from hell:
We all have them.
When your roommate asks when's the last time you showered:
Get off my back, okay?!
When you make a drunk phone call (or send a Snapchat) you really shouldn't:
When you tell people you are going to bed, but you really just need to get things done:
In college, "sleep" rarely means sleep.
But you know that no matter what happens, there is always one thing that will get you through it:
Okay, maybe two.
