Fans have waited almost 10 years for this reunion.

Everyone was highly anticipating the return of their favorite Stars Hollow residents leading up to A Year in the Life, however they were left hanging and in a state of confusion. Needless to say, we need more episodes! Fans weren't satisfied with this reunion for several reasons, but here are the big topics of discussion for those who aren't happy with the four episodes that were given.


***Spoiler Alert***


1. Logan and Rory

Fans rejoiced when Logan and Rory appeared to be back together. However, their spirits were crushed to find that they were only having an affair in London behind his Fiance's back. We lost a little respect for Rory for being the other woman, but at the same time, were so frustrated by the fact that despite the love between the two of them, they would not end up together.

2. Lorelai goes on a hiatus

Lorelai and Luke finally made it, and she decides that now is the opportune time to lose herself in the mountains of California? She leaves for weeks trying to find herself, leaving Luke in the dark and under the impression that she was leaving him.

3. Rory and Jess

Jess always had such an emotional effect on Rory, however this time around, she wasn't phased by him in the slightest, and he didn't even try to make a significant impression on her. However, the way that he looked at her in the last scene he was in made us all wonder about what would happen between them, as it was clear that he was still in love with her.

4. What was up with Luke and Lorelai's wedding?

To be honest, it was weird. It seemed like a strange dream. Of course, we expected the wedding to be anything but conventional, but it didn't do their love any justice. I personally thought it was a dream and then realized that it was actually their real wedding. It left fans sitting there asking themselves, "what did I just watch?"

5. The last four words.

The last four words of the show is a conversation between Rory and Lorelai:


Rory: "Mom?"

Lorelai: "Yeah?"

Rory: "I'm pregnant."

Fans everywhere: WHAT?!


This confession shocked everyone and leaves us questioning, who is the father? Is it Logan, considering the fact that he was really the only person Rory was consistently with? Or is it Jess, running with the possible foreshadowing longing look he gave her at the end of the last episode?

With all of these issues we had with the revival, it raises the biggest question of all:

Will we get our questions answered, or will we be left to form our own conclusions?

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
