If you know me, you know that I LOVE GILMORE GIRLS. This is my absolute favorite show, I have been through the whole thing (Netflix additions and all) at least 4 times. This show makes me aspire to be as dependent on coffee as Lorelei, be as smart as Rory, and just all around be funnier. Here are some quotes to help get you through your first week of school!

"People are particularly stupid today, I cant talk to anymore of them" - Michele

Because there is always that ONE person in your classes that always asked every single question that is answered right there on the syllabus and there is always that group of people that walks super slow when you are on your way to class.

"If you're gonna throw your life away he better have a motorcycle" - Lorelei

To all the freshman girls that fall super hard for that one frat guy... don't do it. He is not the one and if you must, at least make sure that he has something cool to waste your time with... like a motorcycle.

"W.W.T.B.F.C.D.?" - Lorelei

What would the Barefoot Contessa Do? Ask yourself this before you reach for that other serving of those "mashed potatoes" in the dining hall or before you throw another ramen in the microwave. Try to make your own dinner or snack that the Contessa would be proud of.

"Am I crying or laughing?"

Nuff said.

"Its all any of us wants, to find a nice person to hang out with 'til we drop dead.  Not a lot to ask" - Lorelei

All of us when it is the Friday of syllabus week and we are crying drunk on the bathroom floor of a frat house.

"Mom, you've given me everything I need" - Rory

Exactly what I say to my mom after she buys me a whole cartload of stuff from Wal-Mart and she is just making sure that I got all of the right toiletries and food items that I could need and I have to convince her that I am good.

“I cannot do this alone, I need my mommy and I don’t care who knows it.” - Rory

Literally me everyday. I call my mom almost everyday... also take this as a note to call your mom. She wants to hear your voice and also she might actually have something important to say.

"No men. Just lots and lots of Chinese food." - Paris

Those all-nighters that are between your best friends and you and are filled with the entirety of the Chinese restaurant down the street on your living room table.

“You have to sleep, it’s what keeps you pretty.” - Lorelei

The matra that we tell ourselves when it is late at night and Netflix asks if we are still watching.

"Life's short. Talk fast." - Lorelei

When you find out on day one that your 300 level teacher insists on making everyone go around and tell everyone their life story... because public speaking is def not your thing.

"The poptart tasted like freedom and rebellion and independence" - Lorelei

The words that you are whispering to yourself after you find the one lone snack left over from your shopping spree earlier in the week with your mom.

"This Is A Jumbo Coffee Morning. I Need Coffee In An I.V."

"This is a jumbo coffee morning.  I need coffee in an I.V." - Lorelei

I mean, with all the new found freedom (or rediscovered freedom) from living at home, you are bound to stay up all night and that frappuccino that you always get is not going to cut it so you wind up getting a double shot latte blah blah blah just to stay awake in your 8am.

"Flirt with him now.  We need coffee" - Rory

The thing that you start whispering to your friend when you are in the extra long Starbucks line but need to convince the cute barista to make your drinks first.

mistake
Project Eve

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
