They are strong. They are selfless. They are brave... well after their huge cup of coffee.

Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

The witty comments, the endless coffee, and the endless references to pop culture. Gilmore Girls will now live forever since it has been released on Netflix. The moment the mini series was released, it gave us inside, but also brought about some questions. After all these years 'living' with this cast, it's almost like we are part of the family. But can we really live up to being a Gilmore?

Drinking Coffee

A true Gilmore has a caffeine tolerance that is unknown to even the manliest of men. These women can drink more coffee in a day then I do in a year or more. So, if it takes a chronic coffee addiction to be a Gilmore, well I don't wanna say I'm already out but maybe I can switch the coffee for tea?

Food

I honesty do not know how these girls put away everything they eat and still remain in such great shape without working out. Fear not, I have had this under control since as long as I can remember. Cosmic brownies, white powdered donuts, tacos, and so much more. I may not eat as much junk food as I used to, but I still live the Gilmore lifestyle when it comes to food regardless!

Quirky Best Friend

Luckily I already have this part of being a Gilmore Girl. She is the Sookie to my Lorelai or maybe more like the Lane to my Rory. I could probably go on and on with comparisons but I know you get the point.

Small Town Living

It may not be Stars Hollow, CT, but it has the same type of living in a way. Both have the town regulars, the local hang outs, the town festivals, and the 'Kirk' of the town. Trust me, we have it all and way more in Chester, SC.

Be An Amazing Woman

I am still working on this one but so far I think I'm doing an awesome job. When compared to these women, I have to say that so far I have a little bit of all the honorable Gilmore ladies, but I have a lot more from the Marsh women in my family. They are two women who truly remind me of Emily and Lorelai Gilmore, however they may not get the reference when they read this just because I don't believe they have watched the whole series. Luckily I got them both on Netflix!

Anticipating The End Of Your First Semester, As Told By April Ludgate

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

To The Cheerful Person On Their Rainy Days, You Are Valid

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

1. When you look at the syllabus and realize there are only three weeks of the semester left; even though the first day was LITERALLY yesterday.

2. You look at your grades and realize they probably aren't as high as they should be, which is a terrifying realization.

3. When you think to yourself at night, "tomorrow, I will wake up early and go to the library ALL day, and, hell, maybe after I'll go to the gym for a little bit, just to push myself that extra mile."

4. Tomorrow actually comes. The inevitable and overpowering sense of procrastination is too strong to overcome.

5. But you DO end up going to the library. Not all day though, but still, a while. But no, you do not go to the gym. Still, you made an effort, so you decide to treat yo' self.

6. When you realize you need to schedule a meeting with your adviser because you need to sign up for classes next semester. But you also realize that since you waited until the last minute, you're going to get stuck with all of the crappy classes.

7. When you low-key try to slip into conversation with your professors that you need extra credit because you're that desperate.

8. When it's already the third time you've seen your adviser in two days because you have no damn clue what you're doing and need all the help you can get.

9. When you apply for a job associated with your major even though you have no experience, but you just want to dive headfirst into the deep end of adulthood and get it over with.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.
