Taking over the world, one cup of coffee at a time.

6 Reasons Every Girl Wants To Be A Gilmore
ET Online

Every girl dreams of a Lorelai/Rory type relationship. From the never ending array of take-out food to the unreasonable amount of coffee consumed per day, everybody wants to be a Gilmore. As the revival of "Gilmore Girls" is almost upon us, there are more than a few reasons why Rory, Lorelai, Emily and Richard are beloved. Here are six reasons that every girl wants to be a Gilmore.

1. Stars Hollow

Pack your bags mom, because we are moving to Stars Hollow! Every girl that has ever watched "Gilmore Girls" inevitably falls in love with the quaint, exciting little town of Stars Hollow. Let's not forget about how adorable this town looks during the four seasons.

2. Endless coffee (and food) from Luke's


How many times did Lorelai and Rory ACTUALLY PAY for their coffee? Almost never. If being friends with Luke means endless amounts of oversized-mugs-full-o'-coffee, then count me in. Not to mention that a vast array of muffins, donuts, pancakes, burgers and french fries always seem to be at their beck and call.

3. Friday Night Dinner at 7pm

Friday Night Dinners. This is where things get messy -- and HILARIOUS. Who wouldn't want to sit down with Emily Gilmore to hear the latest gossip and DAR drama? While Lorelai and her parents have their differences, we all wish our grandparents were as dynamic as Emily and Richard. Plus, what's more entertaining than finding out which new housemaid will be opening the door to take your coat?

4. Rory and Lorelai's incredible metabolisms

Episode after episode, Rory and Lorelai stuff their faces with enormous amounts of food. We all want to be a Gilmore, for the sheer fact that no matter how many donuts, pancakes or calories they consume, they still look FLAWLESS.

5. The wardrobe

Every girl wants to be a Gilmore because they somehow manage to get away with anything in the style department. Whether it's the bang phase, bright patterned dresses or printed tees, the Gilmores manage to make our awkward years, well---A LOT more awkward. While Rory is pretty "plain Jane," she wears a turtleneck and plaid skirt better than anyone in the history of the private school dress code. And Lorelai, well, she's the trendiest mom on the planet -- far ahead of her time.

6. The men


In a small town of Stars Hallow, it seems as though the choices of men are not. From friendship to romance, the Gilmore girls wouldn't ironically be the Gilmore girls without the men of the show. Whether it be a 5-year friendship that finally blossoms into true love (c'mon Luke, we knew since Season One) or the indecisiveness of a confused teenager. Granted, we must not forget characters like Michel, Taylor, Kirk and Richard who also bring incredible charisma and spontaneity to this incredible show. Whatever your favorite leading (or supporting) man, we love them all and wish we were a Gilmore.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
