Warning: If you have not seen any or all of Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life ... turn back now! Major spoilers ahead.

So if you watched the revival, you are more than likely scratching your brain at some of the events and situations that occurred. Trust me, you are not alone. Here are ten questions I had after watching Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

1. Why was Rory written and portrayed as, dare I say it, a whore?

Yeah Rory made a couple slutty mistakes back in Season 4 & 5, but she was young, naive and with her first love. But not only did Rory have a boyfriend that she couldn't even remember (what was the point of his existence anyway), but she cheated on him with both Logan and that Wookie from the convention. In addition to that, Logan was also engaged to another woman, so there's a whole other side to what she's doing. I just did not enjoy seeing Rory be so promiscuous.

2. Why was that “Stars Hollow” musical scene so drug out?

Honestly, I watched about two or three minutes of it and then skipped to the end of it. I know Amy Sherman Palladino said that they were trying to figure out how to fill 90 minutes worth of stuff, four different times, but so many scenes were too long and quite unnecessary if you ask me.

3. How could Rory afford to fly back and forth from London so many times if she was broke?

The girl constantly talked about how she was broke, but was flying to and from London two or three times for the first two episodes. Pretty sure tickets to London are quite expensive, so I'm not quite sure how she could afford to do it.

4. WHERE WAS THE THEME SONG?!

All I wanted was to dance around the living room with my little sister and sing the theme song like we did so many times over the summer, but we got nothing! I'm sure they could've cut down some of those unnecessary scenes to fit in the theme song.

5. Where were Sookie’s kids? And Sookie and Jackson in general?

Sookie and Jackson were such an important part of Gilmore Girls, but they both only had one scene each. I was excited to see their kids all grown up (to early teens, at least), but we didn't get to see them either. I know there was a lot of drama with Melissa McCarthy returning and everything, but I just wished they would have been more of an integral part of the revival.

6. Why finally have Mr. Kim in the picture after 7 seasons of never knowing where the hell he was?

I was pretty stunned to finally see Mr. Kim, Lane's father, in the revival. But I'm just curious as to why even show him when he was never seen in the original series?

7. What was the real WiFi password for Luke’s Diner?

Luke hilariously would give out fake WiFi passwords to his customers so that they couldn't get on and bother him, but now I'm curious as to what the password actually was.

8. Why did Lorelai and Luke wait so long to get married---or why couldn’t they at least have had one kid?

The whole surrogacy story line just broke my heart because all I wanted was for Luke and Lorelai to have a child together. And why couldn't they have gotten married sooner? Why wait almost ten years to make it official? I mean don't get me wrong, I am over the moon that they finally tied the knot, but I just don't like how everyone seemed to be stuck in the same places they were when the series ended.

9. Why didn’t Jess have more screen time?

I'll be honest here, I was never a huge huge Jess fan, but my heart longed for him and Rory to have more scenes together. It's clear that he's still in love with her and that he's Rory's "Luke", so I just wish that we could've saw more of him.

10. Will there be more?!

I'm not going to ruin those final four words, but with those being the last thing we hear, there has to be more coming right? RIGHT?

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.

19 Lessons I'll Never Forget from Growing Up In a Small Town

There have been many lessons learned.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
