" Gilmore Girls" is a drama-filled TV show that revolves around a mother daughter relationship. Lorelai Gilmore and her daughter, Rory, move to a small town of Stars Hallow and their lives are surrounded by friends and loved ones that bring spectacle and obstacles. The majority of viewers became obsessed with this show and couldn’t help but be envious of the unique bond this duo shared. However, even the most concentrated fans may not have heard some of these facts and bloopers that the writer/actors overlooked when filming:

1. The infamous theme song, “Where You Lead” is sung by Carole King and her daughter Louise Goffin.

If you are a true "Gilmore Girls" fan then you would definitely have already known this, however, did you know that they actually starred Carole King in the TV show? She was the music store owner that sold Lane her drum set, and was her mentor!

2. Kirk before he was “Kirk.”

Before Sean Gunn played the role of Kirk in Gilmore Girls, he played Mick, who was the DSL installer that was hired by Emily to set up faster internet into Lorelai’s house in season one! We never saw Mick again after that episode but Sean Gunn was later casted as Kirk for the rest of the show!

3. Where is Lane’s dad?

For the first two seasons of the show, Lane’s dad was constantly mentioned, but we were never introduced to the character!

4. Michel was the only character in the show to never seem to show interest into finding love.

The only relationship that Michel was paired with was with his mother, well, and Celine Dion. When it came to finding a love interest, he only mentioned he was going to be going on a date in maybe one or two episodes. So other than showing interest in his two puppies, Chin-Chin and Paw-Paw, we never find out if Michel has feelings for anymore.

5. One of the craziest characters in the show was Jackson’s spine-chilling older brother Bo.

What took me forever to realize that he grew up to be Parks and Recreation character, Ron Swanson! I will never look at Ron the same ever again…

6. I never understood why Rory was granted valedictorian of her school.

She was transferred into the school year later, took her weeks to catch up on the school work, and was given a D once. Meanwhile, her friend Paris Geller was straight A student since preschool and never missed a day of school.

7. Rory Gilmore was a Hilary Clinton fan.

Probably not a good thing to bring up in 2016, but hopefully she has seen the world outside of that small town and opened her eyes a bit.

8. Lane Kim actor, Keiko Agena, was actually 27 years old when the first episode aired!

Good God that girl is going to age well.

When you are watching the "Gilmore Girls" revival show that is supposed to air in November, be sure to look out for some new fun and crazy twists that the show may bring!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
