The First Episode Of 'Gilmore Girls' Leaves You With These 10 Thoughts

For the last 16 years, "Gilmore Girls" has made its way from weekly television shows to Netflix, allowing generations of viewers to enjoy and be apart of a 16-year-old and her single mother’s life. Rory and Lorelai, respectively, spend their days drinking coffee, surviving high school and running an inn. No matter what kind of boy or money troubles come their way, the mother daughter relationship that we watch between the “Gilmore Girls” has brought a fun bond between the daughters and mothers watching it together and has made some girls long for the bond between Lorelai and Rory.

Now, I’ll admit that I’m no expert. Obsessed? Yes. But I don’t know how the series ends or what happens in the middle, or what happens after episode 5. I started watching August 10, today is the 12. However, I got hooked after the first episode. So, here are some of the thoughts that traveled through my head while I watched the episode that started it all 16 years ago in 2000.

1. How do you get a mother daughter relationship like Rory and Lorelai’s?

You can't get more comfortable than that.

2. Rory’s conversation with the boy made me cringe for her.

One word: Y- I- K- E- S.

3. I guess everyone has crazy grandparents.

Hide from them if you can.

4. I’m not quite sure if I could ask my mother if she’s happy because she did something slutty?

I'm pretty sure I'd get grounded, no questions asked.

5. Hayrides with future doctors would be interesting.

"Hi, I'm in high school... Maybe I'll fix your heart one day."

6. I should start drinking coffee at all times of the day too.

There's no bad time for caffeine.

7. Lorelai better hem that skirt A LOT.

Dresses that reach calves are a no go.

8. Sookie will probably burn down the whole Inn.

Danger. Danger. Danger.

9. Michel has the same attitude as Mr. Moseby, from The Suite Life of Zach and Cody, did.

Or the same attitude as me, half of the time.

10. More boys should be attracted to girls who love to read.

Fun fact: We're pretty cool.

THINK like Rory. DRESS like Lorelai. COOK like Sookie. DRINK COFFEE like a Gilmore.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
