Almost everyone nowadays has heard of the popular 2000s television show "Gilmore Girls." English nerds, for example, have flocked to the fictional town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut. Some of their best friends have become the Gilmore girls, a.k.a mother-daughter duo Lorelai and Rory. If there's one thing I know for certain about this gem of a show, is that it's got some stellar bookish quotes. Here are 20 of my favorite bookish quotes from the show:

1. "I can go from zero to studying in less than 60 seconds."

2. "Well, I study, then study, then after a little study break, I study."

3. "I live in two worlds; one is a world of books."

4. "I just take a book with me everywhere."

Me too, girl, me too.

5. "Oh, well these aren't all of my books."

*pulls out dresser drawers full of books*

6. "Nothing, nothing smells like that."

*sniffs book again*

7. "My books look sad. Can books look sad?"

8. "Not in front of the books, Lane!"

*when asked if sex is great*

9. "Who cares if I'm pretty if I fail my finals?"

10. "I can't believe we get to sit around and talk about books and get graded."

Says EVERY English major EVER.

"God! You are like a pop-up book from hell!"

12. "We could go to the bookstore. I'll watch you browse for six or seven hours."

This is the way to an English major's heart, y'all.

13. "Behold, in theaters now, The Thing That Reads A Lot."

You gotta love Lorelai's wit.

14. "I like showing you the stuff I'm reading."

"But you knew I'd wanna read it. You're a book tease!"

15. "He's cute."

"Yes, he is, but not as cute as Pushkin."

16. "Oh, I read a lot. Do you read?"

Why yes, he does, Rory!

17. "I'm sorry, excuse me, did I just see you smell that book?"

Duh.

18. "I want to live my life so that I'll be able to read an in-depth biography about myself in later years!"

Don't we all, Paris?

19. "Hey, what's your name? What's your story?"

#relatable

20. "I've read like, what, three hundred books in my entire life and I'm already sixteen? Do you know how long it would take me to read 13 million books?!"

"I sleep too much..."

And there are 20 awesomely-bookish quotes from Gilmore Girls!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
