I've Been Gilmored, And You Can Too

I've Been Gilmored, And You Can Too
USA Today

Being home for winter break after the first semester of college sounds absolutely amazing - until the slight boredom sets in. Naturally, I looked to Netflix to stimulate my mind and find some entertainment, and I wasn't disappointed.

I had never been interested in watching Gilmore Girls (especially because for the past five years I had mistaken it for Golden Girls with Betty White), but seeing news about the revival series Netflix produced made me interested and so, on a whim, I hit play.

So far I've binged two seasons in five days and I'm proud to say that I'm still going strong. I want to convince as many people as possible to give Gilmore Girls a try because never did I think I would like it. The witty humor, dated puns, fast delivery, and serious issues give the show its charm and make it so relatable. Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, the dynamic mother-daughter duo, set the tone of the show and bring life to the small town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut. Just watching the first episode will get you hooked and wanting more.

Here are some quotes to get you started:

1. "I can be flexible. As long as everything is exactly the way I want it, I can be totally flexible." - Lorelai Gilmore.

Relatable.

2. "How come you're not excited about life?"

"I find nothing exciting before 11:00."

Even more relatable. I'm barely awake by the time the clock strikes 11.

And, my personal favorite:

3. "I just got hit by a deer!" - Rory Gilmore.

I'll let you figure this one out for yourself.

So PLEASE, when choosing your next show make Gilmore Girls a starring option. You won't regret it.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
