College Told Through Gilmore Girls

Gilmore girls is a lifestyle, it's a religion!

Nov 15, 2016

College has its ups and downs, but overall it's a good time. You are now on your own, away from your parents for the first time in your lives and you're making the most of it. Whether it be dealing with awkward encounters in the dorms, to counting your coins for that not-so-needed cup of coffee, you're becoming an official college student. And soon enough, you're realizing that you are a bit too similar to Rory when she attended Yale. But I mean, is that really so bad? Here's a few more ways Gilmore Girls may be a bit too similar to your life style:

1. You need coffee. You can't make it to your 8am or stay awake for that study group at 8pm without it.

2. Poptarts are your main breakfast food when there is no time for Lukes... I mean the dining hall.

3. You're finding yourself and your inner passions (even if your parents don't agree with them).

4. You are also learning your priorities in life.

5. And there's nothing like seeing your parents on parents weekend.

6. You will have some days that just suck.

7. Or you will get to the point where you just can't deal with people anymore.

8. Your parents may question your changes to your major.

9. There are so many eligible guys and you can't figure out why none of them like you, I mean...

right?

10. And when they do like you, you have a panic attack every time.

11. You try and use as little utensils and plates as possible, because who is going to clean them?

12. You may leave with all your work done, but you somehow manage to come back with more work to do than you left with.

13. You're always broke.

14. And after you leave a frat house a bit intoxicated...

15. You become the best ranter. It's what you do after someone asks "how's your day been?"

16.Pizza, Chinese, and chips are your main food groups #freshman15.

17. You get the weirdest food cravings at the most random of times.

18. And we all have that friend who is the best yet also worst influence on you.

19. And in the end, you realize you just aren't cut out for college!

Jk, stay in college! And get ready because our favorite girls are coming back November 25th for their revival series! I know I'm excited!

What I've Learned About Friendship During My First Year Of High School

Friendship isn't always as easy as it's made out to be.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

25 Things I Want My Younger Cousins To Know

A little advice for my original best friends

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
