Why 'Gilmore Girls'  Is Your Favorite Show

The "Gilmore Girls" revival is the biggest TV news (besides the election) and let me tell you, I can't wait. This TV series is full of humor, love, wit, spunk, and great characters. It'll definitely make you laugh and sometimes even cry. I know I've done both. I'm sure everyone can relate to at least one character in the show whether it's Rory's love for books, Lorelai's parenting, or Luke's sarcasm. Whether it's watching Lorelai and Rory eat until they can't anymore, seeing Rory with one of her boyfriends, or the different relationships between all of the characters,there is something for everyone and it's the perfect show. I'm ecstatic for the revival because the show means so much to me. I watch it over and over again and it never gets old. In short, Gilmore Girls is definitely one of my favorite shows.

First, it's so easy to relate to. There are so many characters with various traits that are sure to appeal to people. The plot lines like mother-daughter relationships, being a single parent, dating and going to high school or college are funny and realistic, unlike other shows on TV. All of the things that happen in Stars Hollow could easily happen to any teenage girl. I personally relate to Rory Gilmore the most. She is an avid reader and dreams to be a journalist. Spot on? I think yes. I hope that one day I'll make a dent in the list of all the books Rory has read throughout the course of the show.

"Gilmore Girls" is also a bonding experience. It makes me realize that my mom is absolutely the Lorelai to my Rory. I like to think that we have a relationship just like them minus the marathon eating and being a single parent. My mom and I are so close and we love watching the show together. We have had our share of crying and laughing, and when Lorelai and Rory have a special bonding moment, it always means a lot to us. My mom is my best friend and if there is any TV mom and daughter duo to aspire to be, it is certainly Lorelai and Rory.

This is a show that will never get old for me. I honestly wish I could make everyone I know watch it. I could talk about it for hours and I would love to hear everyone else's opinion. Whenever someone tells me that they are a "Gilmore Girls" fan, my eyes light up and I immediately become happier. I wasn't old enough to watch the show when it originally aired on TV, but I'm glad I was able to watch it when I was older. I felt like I understood it more because I was the same age as Rory when I started watching. Now I'm even more excited for the revival of the show and I've been re-watching my favorite episodes to get more in the mood. Luckily, November 25th is right around the corner and I can get another fix of my favorite show.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
