<p>Okay, so kind of off-topic, but the in the "Gilmore Girls" rerun that was on today, Paris was telling Rory that all of the kids applying to Harvard have perfect SAT's and a perfect GPA- it's the extras that put you over the top - community service and EC's-and that she has been volunteering since she was in 4th grade. </p>

<p>Rory says, "So when do you have time to have a life?"
Paris: "I'll have a life after I graduate from HArvard."</p>

<p>And then Rory starts freaking out saying she's 10 years behind in her extracurriculars and that she has to find a mentally-challenged child right now and teach him softball.</p>

<p>It was just really funny because that's what this process does to us all!</p>

<p>don't they both end up at yale? sorry if that's a dumb question, i didn't watch the show very often.</p>

3

<p>Yes, they do. And every scene filmed at Yale is AWESOME!</p>

<p>omg i used to watch gilmore girls religiously!!!</p>

<p>and at that point in my life (ok i was like 10--lame i know) my dream was attending harvard and then i saw yale on gg and i was like shiiittt i wanna go there
and, several years later, yale is my first choice</p>

<p>THANKS gilmore girls! hahah</p>

<p>oh snap smr you got a swearword past the screen! madd skillz</p>

<p>gilmore girls got so bad after the scenes moved out of stars hollow. the first season was like the only good one. but that was true for monk and a bunch of other once-upon-a-time-good shows. of course that may just be me and my dumb nostalgia. </p>

<p>does nostalgia apply for a time less than 5 yrs in the past?</p>

<p>Well, five years is about 25% of our lives... I also love Gilmore Girls, although it started going downhill a bit after the 5th season.</p>

7

<p>At least one of the writers for Gilmore Girls, Joan Binder Weiss, attended Yale as an undergraduate.</p>

8

<p>And it shows in the way they portray prep school/college life.</p>

<p>dchari: yeahh i know i'm pretty BA, cause i can say SHIIIT hahah</p>

<p>yeah actually once rory got to college, gilmore girls wasnt as exciting, and once the dean/jesse drama was being overused, it kind of got boring.</p>

<p>i still like the reruns though :)</p>

10

<p>hey i was watching that day and CRACKING UP!!! i love gilmore girls reruns! </p>

<p>it definitely was down hill from when rory temporarily dropped out of yale. um, what was up with that?</p>

11

<p>one of the girls on my tour at yale asked if it was filmed there. apparently not, but indiana jones was. ..who would have thought.</p>

<p>on another movie related note, my bc tour guide tried to tell me that bc looked like hogwarts. it offended me.</p>

12

<p>hahah wow</p>

<p>on a sidenote, i really dont like BC.... at all.</p>

13

<p>i really didn't like it either, the people and the campus turned me off.</p>
