The First Week Back At College As Told By 'Gilmore Girls'
Entertainment Weekly

We wait all summer to return back to our home away from home, but when the first week of classes start, we suddenly remember that class is the actual reason why we are attending. The first week is full of many emotions; from excitement, laughter, hugs, nervousness, worries, to tears, and attitude, we experience it all. Some may be used to what is coming, but most of the time, we don't know what our professors expect of us that very first class. So, whether it be your very first week of college or you're a returning student, here is the first week of classes as told by Gilmore Girls.

Hearing the alarm for an 8 a.m.

No parking spots, washing machines, or seats in the back of class.


Telling yourself you will healthy this year, but you've already ruined that trend.

Running into your ex on campus.

When your prof keeps you in class for the entire class time.

The high expectations you have for the celebration of being back.

Already looking up that tutor schedule...

You rediscover your reliance on coffee.

When you meet someone in your class who has potential for becoming your best friend…

Waking up late for class.

Spotting a potential boyfriend while walking to class with your friends.

When you spot your friends after being apart all summer long.

Being filled in by your friends about last night since you don't remember a thing...

Trying to actually be a good student and focus during class.

“You have homework.”

When you see how much your books will cost.

It rains on your walk to class.

The first week gets a little stressful, so naturally you resort to retail therapy.

"Any questions?"

Finding out your friend saved all the assignments and tests for the same class you're in.

Seniors year feels...

Discovering the fact that your neighbors or the people above you are similar to living near elephants.

Well, you made it through week one, but there is still a full semester ahead of you...


Keep on dreaming, and being Gilmored, y'all. Hope this added a little bit of shine to your first week back. Loans and degree changes are what we see in the now, but I promise graduation is in your reach. You've got this.

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.
