So you've been a devout "Gilmore" fan since the first episode aired in 2000. This most likely means you are currently flipping out about the fact that "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life" airs today. Like you, I fantasize about having a cup of coffee at Luke's and exchanging obscure movie references with Lorelai and Rory.

Of course, something the Gilmore girls are known for is their ability to shovel copious amounts of junk food into their mouths (and still be incredibly skinny like... what?). To truly embrace the craziness that the Gilmore girls exude, you're going to need some junk food comfort food of your own to get through your binge watch of the new series. Here's a list of the top nine "Gilmore Approved Foods" you'll want to nosh on while watching the crazy antics of Lorelai and Rory Gilmore this weekend!

1. Pop Tarts

A pantry staple of the Gilmore house, pop tarts are a must when watching Gilmore Girls! If you don't have a box on hand, are you really a fan?

2. Pie

Lorelai and Rory are often seen chowing down on pie at Luke's Diner. A Gilmore recommendation would be a big slice of apple pie, probably with a large scoop of ice cream on top.

3. Burgers

It's been said by multiple sources that hamburgers are the closest that a Gilmore will get to a salad. Try topping one of these babies with lots of cheese, bacon, and other savory goodies to make it even better.

4. Chinese Food

While you might not be able to get questionable orange chicken from Al's Pancake World, Chinese food is always a good option! Grab some (not so sketchy) orange chicken, chow mein, and a fortune cookie before you sit down to binge watch.

5. Mallomars

Mallomars are such a big deal to the Gilmores that Rory made Lorelai a Mallomar display for her birthday one year. (Mother/Daughter goals?) These snacks are always good when you feel like you can't eat anymore, because you can and will eat a whole box of Mallomars.

6. Fries

Dubbed as "the Devil's starchy fingers" by Mrs. Kim, fries are a must if you're on this whole binge watching train for the long haul. Try a basket with a big side of your favorite condiment and a large dusting of salt.

7. Pizza

For all of the binge-watching that our beloved Rory and Lorelai did themselves, they usually had a big slice of cheesy pizza to chow down on. A box with a side of garlic twists is probably a safe bet for your Netflix needs.

8. Danishes

Luke is famous for his cherry danishes, loved by Rory and Lorelai (but mostly Lorelai) for many a year in Stars Hollow. Grab a big plate and dig in, just don't use two cell phones at once while eating one.

9. Coffee

Duh.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
