Lorelai Gilmore always knows how to express what we are all thinking."How come you're not excited about life?" — I find nothing exciting before 11:00 Fewer words have ever been truer.

Ask any 20-something and they will tell you, they basically have no idea what exactly they are doing and are just hoping that no one notices that they don't have it together. In today's world where everyone can create a picture perfect world on social media, it is easy to forget that your twenties are a time of trial and error. Failing is not just an option but it is highly encouraged. However, at the same time, there are incredible rewards waiting that have seemed impossible during your teenage years.

At the end of the day, all we really want is to just look back on this time and smile because they truly were some of the best times in our lives. BUT until then we are all on the struggle bus and who better to tell about your times than the Gilmore Girls?!

1. When you can't be bothered by anyone because people are just the worst sometimes

2. When you really don't know whether to pay your rent, student loans or food while there are still so many months left


2. Listening to your parents telling you how hard they had it when they were your age

3. Realizing that any night can be wine night


4. Seeing your friends accomplish major life goals while you are still eating cereal for dinner

5. Pretending to not remember that you have all these responsibilities now that you are an adult

6. When endless margaritas and a pint of ice cream are on the horizon

7. Cheering on your friends who have as little of a clue as you

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.

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.
