In honor or the Gilmore Girls revival we have all been (im)patiently waiting for I decided to showcase the times the show accurately described life in college.
1. When you and your best friend hate the same thing
There are few moments in life that really make you bond with people, sharing a mutual hatred for people or things is the truest sign of a great friendship.
2. When you've been up all night (studying, of course)
There's no feeling more real than the one of complete exhaustion when you have to go to class or work after a night of no sleep. as Lorelai would say, the only thing that helps is "Coffee, coffee, coffee?"
3. When someone eats the food you've been looking forward to eating all day
The one major downfall of dorms is the constant threat that your roommates are going to eat your food. Food is sacred.
4. When you get a disappointed lecture from a professor, a coach, or some other authority figure.
You didn't know it was possible to still feel this small as an "adult." No matter how old you get there are still people ready to put you back in your place and knock you down a few pegs. It's character building.
5. When you finally reunite with your best friends after spending winter break apart
It's only been a few weeks but it felt like years without them, for a while you weren't sure you were going to survive.
6. When you lose all ability to function properly in front of your crush
You can't speak, you keep tripping over your own feet, and you're laughing way too loud....
7. When the stress you've been pretending not to have finally builds up too much
You've pretended to not have emotions for such a long time to push through the stress that now you can't even express the emotions in a normal manner. Everything's fine.
8. No matter how small your campus is, class still feels wayyyyy too far away
Getting out of the bed is hard enough, walking all the way across campus is just out of the question.
9. Finals freak outs hit everyone like a ton of bricks. No amount of compliments can stop the stress.
You hit one of two extremes, either nothing else matters other than acing all of your finals, or nothing at all matters and you're going to rely on your looks to get you through life. Both are entirely valid options when the stress really hits home.
10. When you try to tell your family or friends from home stories from school, but you really just had to be there
Every life event, every emotion, every moment we experience is somehow related to on this show.
With the revival coming up so many of us can thing of nothing else!
Here's to the steady stream of Gilmore Girls one-liners that will undoubtedly be running through your head for the next week.
