What In The Gilmore?

I have so many emotions after finally returning to Stars Hollow and I never want to leave.

What In The Gilmore?
Telegraph
This is an article full of spoilers so if you haven't made it through all four episodes of the Gilmore Girls revival series -- just stop reading. If you have finished, or you're weird like me and want to spoil it (yes, I did that), then proceed my friend.

This Netflix revival actually felt like I was seeing old friends for the first time in forever, and even though I didn't get to see nearly enough Sookie, it was a pretty magical experience. So much happened in these four episodes, like I swear this is such a timeless show and I feel like we've missed out so much on the last 9 years of the Gilmore Girls' lives. The three generations of Gilmore women have so much going on and after binge watching the new episodes, I have a lot of thoughts about where each of them are at in their crazy lives.

First of all, I don't think I have ever felt such hatred toward Rory. How did she forget about how boyfriend every time he left? It was funny at first, but it quickly turned sour when you realized she was also cheating on him with her very engaged ex-boyfriend Logan Huntzberger. That girl has no remorse and I seriously was so over her teenage behavior; like please act 32 and not 15, dude. I just can't condone her stupid choices after she already slept with Dean when he was married, doesn't she remember how terrible that situation turned out to be? Also, why is she so stuck in the past? She needs to find a new man, preferably not a Paul, and move on. I think she's a little too slutty and a little too much like her mother for her own good at this point.

On to Lorelai- how are her and Luke just now tying the knot? Why is she so afraid of commitment? I am so glad they finally decided to get married but like damn why did they wait nearly a decade- we all know they are meant to be and always have been. Even with all of that being said, I probably loved her character even more (is that even a possibility?) in this mini-series than I did in the original 7 seasons. I seriously felt like after the death of Richard, something just clicked in her and this 48-year-old woman finally started to let go of her past. It took her long enough, but watching her grow and change and just accept life was actually something I was waiting for throughout the entirety of the original show. The mending of her relationship with Emily is finally really happening and I think that was really evident as well as important character growth on both of their parts.

Speaking of Emily, I know we all felt an array of emotions seeing that woman in jeans and a t-shirt. At first, it was shocking and then it just turned sad, she was in so much pain the majority of this season and I think we all felt at least a little bit of that pain. I think Richard's passing was the planting of a milestone to come in her life. Of course, she'll never forget her late husband and her home in Hartford, but moving to a new place and starting a life she never imagined would be her's is really amazing. She just seemed so free and so in her element at the end of these four episodes. That was definitely my favorite part of this entire series.

Now that we're talking about endings, this is the part you've all been waiting for...the last four words:

"Mom,"
"Yeah."
"I'm pregnant."

What in the hell was that? Why did they leave us with so many unanswered questions? They obviously want us to think this baby is Logan's and leave it at that. But we all saw the old flame sparking up between her and Jess,and who knows what they did in their off screen time...I have no actual guesses as to who the father is but I seriously hope they don't try to end our Gilmore Girls journey with those four words and nothing more. We need more -- our favorite Stars Hollow fam can't go back into hiding for another decade.

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.
