8 Facts We Know About the Gilmore Girls Revival
www.hercampus.com

The reboot of Gilmore Girls will make die-hard fans and a curious new generation of viewers skip the Black Friday sales when it airs on Netflix this November 25th. Ever so slowly rumors have started circulating about Lorelai's love life, what career path Rory ultimately traveled down, and how Emily is coping with the loss of her beloved husband. Two more months separate the world from the finale episode, Bon Voyage, and the revival four part event, A Year in the Life. Here is what we already know in preparation for your binge-watching session that will without a doubt be packed with coffee and pop-tarts.

1. A majority of the main cast is returning.

Of course the show could not go on without its two female leads, but what about the rest of Stars Hallow? Reportedly, all of your favorite townies will make appearances in the four part revival!

2. ALL of Rory's boyfriends will make appearances.


So whether you are Team Dean (no), Team Jess (sometimes), or Team Logan (always), all three boyfriends will be dropping by Stars Hallow to stir up some romance rumors.

3. The show picks up right where it left off in the finale.

The revival will start up in the present day, roughly eight years after the heartbreaking break-up between Logan and Rory and the town send off.

4. Lorelai and Luke are not married...yet!?

Season 7 left us feeling some type of way when Luke and Lorelai ended. But with new photos of the revival splattering across the Internet with the two smiling on walks together, it seems as if they might be having a reconciliation.

Oh, and one more thing can we all agree that Christopher ought to sit the revival out?? Good.

5. The revival will honor the passing of Edward Herrmann.

As one of the biggest proponents of developing a revival series, Edward Herrmann was always pushing for a special reunion. Unfortunately, the actor lost a battle to brain cancer in 2014. He played patriarch Richard Gilmore and the revival will explore how all three women come to terms with this great loss. Creator and writer Amy Sherman-Palladino reveals that "walking onto set is going to be a different feel because one piece is missing".

6. Rory is single.

According to Sherman-Palladino, Rory is dating like any young woman would be. She could end up with one her old flames, perhaps?

7. Rory might be a teacher AND a journalist.

Back in April this photo from the upcoming revival was released and here is the breakdown: Rory, head of the class, standing in front of students who don an eerily familiar navy plaid skirt. She might be teaching at Chilton! However, Logan's friend Finn from the Life and Death Brigade recently shared a photo on Instagram that includes a copy of the Star's Hallow Gazette featuring a byline written by THE Rory Gilmore. We'll just have to wait and see what comes about this information in November...

8. The first pop culture reference includes Amy Schumer.

Something that defines Gilmore Girls is the abundant and quickly delivered pop culture references. In the first official trailer for the revival, Lorelai and Rory sit in their cozy Stars Hallow abode and Lorelai ponders the question, "Would Amy Schumer like me?" The actress responded a few days later with, "of course she would!"


Whatever the Gilmore Girls revival brings, the fandom will be waiting patiently to see how life pans out for all the Gilmore women.

And yes, Lorelai, we were lost without you!

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
