The CW

Almost everyone nowadays has heard of the popular 2000s television show "Gilmore Girls." English nerds, for example, have flocked to the fictional town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut. Some of their best friends have become the Gilmore girls, a.k.a mother-daughter duo Lorelai and Rory. If there's one thing I know for certain about this gem of a show, is that it's got some stellar bookish quotes. Here are 20 of my favorite bookish quotes from the show:

1. "I can go from zero to studying in less than 60 seconds."

2. "Well, I study, then study, then after a little study break, I study."

3. "I live in two worlds; one is a world of books."

4. "I just take a book with me everywhere."

Me too, girl, me too.

5. "Oh, well these aren't all of my books."

*pulls out dresser drawers full of books*

6. "Nothing, nothing smells like that."

*sniffs book again*

7. "My books look sad. Can books look sad?"

8. "Not in front of the books, Lane!"

*when asked if sex is great*

9. "Who cares if I'm pretty if I fail my finals?"

10. "I can't believe we get to sit around and talk about books and get graded."

Says EVERY English major EVER.

"God! You are like a pop-up book from hell!"

12. "We could go to the bookstore. I'll watch you browse for six or seven hours."

This is the way to an English major's heart, y'all.

13. "Behold, in theaters now, The Thing That Reads A Lot."

You gotta love Lorelai's wit.

14. "I like showing you the stuff I'm reading."

"But you knew I'd wanna read it. You're a book tease!"

15. "He's cute."

"Yes, he is, but not as cute as Pushkin."

16. "Oh, I read a lot. Do you read?"

Why yes, he does, Rory!

17. "I'm sorry, excuse me, did I just see you smell that book?"

Duh.

18. "I want to live my life so that I'll be able to read an in-depth biography about myself in later years!"

Don't we all, Paris?

19. "Hey, what's your name? What's your story?"

20. "I've read like, what, three hundred books in my entire life and I'm already sixteen? Do you know how long it would take me to read 13 million books?!"

"I sleep too much..."

And there are 20 awesomely-bookish quotes from Gilmore Girls!

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
