9 Reasons Why We Should All Be Like Rory

As I re-watch "Gilmore Girls" (for the fourth time, I might add) I just couldn't help but write down all my feelings about this amazing show. To start the writing in this show is impeccable, with quick and witty lines and characters that are extremely relatable. It seems silly to say that one of the two main characters has stuck out to me but this time around I couldn't help but notice Rory and how much she is in all of us. I remember watching this show probably in middle school seeing her go through high school and then college imagining what it all would be like and what kind of adventures I would go on. Rory's optimistic view of the world and desire to follow her dreams is wonderful and something we can all take a hint from. Here are some reasons why we should all aspire to be like Rory.

1. She understands that sleep is important, and I mean why would you wake up before 11 am if you don't have to?

2. We've all had those days where we just need comfort food to make the day better.

Sometimes you just want cheap Chinese food delivered to your door or piles of junk food and a good movie.

3. She is all of us in an awkward situation

We've all had those awkward moments when all we want to do is run out of the store and possibly accidentally steal some corn starch in the process, however in the end she knows there's nothing you can really do so just smile and twirl it out.

4. She knows that through it all there's nothing more important than family.

5. Rory's undying loyalty to her friends is something amazing.

She's there for her friends through thick and thin and that's exactly what I strive for in a friendship.

6. She follows her dreams and doesn't let small obstacles get in her way.

She sees what she wants and goes for it. She also rolls with the punches and doesn't try to change the path she's been lead on.

But all in all one of the best parts about this show and about Rory is that these characters feel real, they're honest and relatable. For example...

7. Rory is all of us during finals

8. There's also that "super relatable" feeling of when you truly care for everyone but sometimes you also just don't like anyone.

9. And let's not even get started on the coffee addiction of the Gilmore girls.

Basically I could go on and on about this show and all the reasons that it, and it's characters are great, but basically this is timeless and I'll keep watching it over and over. If you haven't watched it yet go do it now before the revival of the show this fall. Get to know Rory and Lorelai and fall in love with the kooky town that is Stars Hollow!

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.
