The 5 Stages Of Grief Every Diehard 'Pretty Little Liars' Fans Went Through

YouTube

So, last Tuesday night at 10:00 pm, my favorite show ended forever. Pretty Little Liars is finally over, and I have a lot of feelings on the matter. Having dedicated many years of my life to following this show, I am definitely one of these people-- and the feelings I have are not very pleasant.

If you're in my boat, Alex is not who you envisioned as the perfect A.D., the final A reveal Pretty Little Liars will leave us with. What exactly was going through my head after the big moment? It was, I'm ashamed to admit, quite similar to the actual grieving process.

1. Denial

Okay, so Spencer's reflection just moved. Freaky. But, remember how many drug-addled dream sequences she has given us? Clearly that is what's happening here!

Oh, she has a British accent. This is definitely some cheesy dream caused by Spencer's sleep deprivation or something.

A.D. is still out there! This weirdo is going to finish her blabbering, Spencer will wake up, and we can FINALLY get to the good stuff...

2. Anger

Alex just admitted to being A.D. That just happened.

And Spencer has not woken up.

This is not a drill. This is not a joke.

Spencer's evil freaking twin is A.D.

*Scream

*Curse

*Throw phone

*Threaten to call in sick for work tomorrow

3. Bargaining

Clearly the best choice for A.D. was Ezra. I mean, come ON-- how good would that be?? The man was writing a secret book based on everything that happened to underage girls; how is being a super villain a big leap from that?

But, at this point... I would give anything to have any actual, regular character reveal themselves as A.D. I would rather ALLISON be A.D. at this point.

Please.

Literally, I will settle for anyone who has had any significance to the plot line that we actually knew about!!

4. Depression

That's it. I have wasted five years of my life on inventing theory after theory for nothing.

I'm never starting another TV series. I am not watching TV again in any capacity. I am not even waking up and going to work tomorrow-- how am I supposed to act happy for my campers??

5. Acceptance

Am I happy? No. Certainly not. But, there are a million outcomes that would have made me unhappy after all.

But, Pretty Little Liars has come to an end, and there's nothing I can do about that. But... Troian Bellisario is a genius who nailed playing both her original character in distress AND her bitchy, psychotic evil twin. Marlene King gave us a unique ending that almost no one saw coming.

So, thank you Pretty Little Liars for taking over my Tuesdays for the past five years. I have enjoyed every minute of it... just as I will enjoy rewatching the entire series on Netflix no less than ten times.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
