(Rory's POV)
Let me start by telling you where I'm at in life. I successfully graduated from
Chilton Prep as one of the top 5 students in our class. From there, I moved
onto Harvard where I graduated in the top 10% of the class. I majored in
journalism and my career took off from there.
That summer I spent back home in Stars Hollow looking for jobs, applying for
them and doing interviews. I wasn't really around much that summer; I was
always on the go. In August, I got a letter from the New York Times letting me
know that I had gotten the job. The rest of the summer, Mom and I looked around
the city and I finally found myself a nice, cozy apartment for one.
My first 2 years I worked as hard as I could to get a better position. Just
last year I got my own office and a secretary and am one of the youngest and
top writers for the Times. It's my dream come true.
So here I am, at the age of 25, living my life exactly as I planned and I'm
loving it. I have great friends with whom I work with, however I did just get
out of a long relationship. But I'm over that finally and I'm moving on.
I keep in touch with Mom and I visit Stars Hollow as often as I can. She's
doing great. It's been weird, she isn't married to Luke but they are living
together. Luke says he doesn't want to get married so they are just
"dating" I guess you'd call it and everything seems to be working out
fine. As a matter of fact, they are exploring Europe right now. I believe
they'll be there for a while. Dean and I broke up after high school graduation
and I haven't heard from him since. I think he might have moved back to
Chicago. Lane and I are still close. She lives in New York pursuing her music
career and she's been pretty successful. We meet for coffee as much as we can.
And Jess, I kept in touch with him for my first year of college but I don't
know what happened. I think he stopped writing to me and now I don't know where
he is.
So that's it, that's my life since my years in Stars Hollow. I don't think I
could've asked for anything better.
