your classes, at least look cute while doing it.
3. Coffee, Coffee, Coffee: Always have an enormous bowl-sized cup of joe, even if it’s
impractical and borderline a health-risk. And never decaf. Never.
4. Study Hard: Obviously easier said than done, but Rory proved that with ambition and
perseverance, hard work pays off.
5. Focus on yourself: Whether it was her budding feud with Paris or her peers at Yale,
Rory herself is no stranger to competition. But, her defining trait is her abilty to focus on
bettering herself rather than bringing her peers down.
6. Date tall, brooding, bad guys who have soft spots for books: You heard what I said. Jess
