![]() If CocoaJava had a physical location, it would be Star's Hollow, the home town of Lorelai and Rory Gilmore. To narrow the field even more, let's zero in on Luke's Diner in Star's Hollow, where much of the action, and massive amounts of coffee are produced each week. If you are unfamiliar with the Gilmore Girls, perhaps this glimpse into their coffee-obsessed days will help you to understand. If you are already acquainted with the girls, you'll enjoy recalling these classic coffee conversations! Now, onward with the girls caffeinated wit and wisdom... Noteable Quotes! Season One - Season Two - Season Three Bonus!

PLACE WINNER - Jenny Shen Then in 9th grade,
at a rare sleepover that we were allowed, she started crying. She said
that she was moving to Chicago at the beginning
of summer.
For the rest of the semester we were both in denial. We talked about ways
to make her parents realize that she couldn't move and we thought very
seriously about all the ways she could spite her parents for making her
move. The last day of school a group of us went out to eat, and near the
end of the meal her mother came into the restaurant and pulled her out.
She said that they were leaving right then. We were all in shock. We both
cried as she hugged me goodbye one last time and glared at her mother.
That night a couple of us had a sleepover in her honor and one of our close
friends remarked, "It's like she never existed or died, because we'll
probably never see her again." I worried about that remark, because
I thought that was a horrible thing to say, as well as the fact that I
didn't want to forget our friendship. Indeed though, her parents had never
made any promises of visits back or anything else of that nature. However, we made it our mission to call each other every single day. We talked about how our day went and described it in vivid detail so that we felt like we had actually spent the day with each other. I lived in Ames, IA and she lived in Naperville, IL, a little over 350 miles. We led completely separate lives and hadn't really met each other's new friends. However, her friends were always on a first name basis with me, and mine her. We had incorporated each other into our lives even though we were over 350 miles apart. We didn't see each other for nearly three years, but that was okay because we had our daily telephone conversations where we'd talk until both our cell phone batteries died. We both recently graduated from high school and she was allowed to come back for my graduation party. This was especially exciting for us because not only were we celebrating an ending, but we were also celebrating a beginning. We are both attending New York University next year and we plan to be roommates. When I came across this contest, I decided to enter it because she is obsessed with Alexis Bledel and the "Pants" movie as she calls it (she is also obsessed with Gilmore Girls, I believe she has almost all episodes memorized). Last night, as we talked on the phone, the mention of posters to bring to college came up and I thought she might like a movie poster of the "Pants" movie. She's always been there for me, so I can't help but try to be there for her. SECOND
PLACE WINNER- Jodye Whitesell THIRD
PLACE WINNER- Joan Regen They met when Claudine came to stay with Jennifer’s family in Staten Island as part of an exchange program in her junior year of high school. Claudine loved sleeping in the guest room of a big house. In her family’s apartment outside of Paris, she shared one with a twenty-year-old sister majoring in husband hunting and a five year old who couldn’t keep out of everyone’s business. During the summer the two girls shared together, Claudine introduced Jennifer to the opera, Paris fashions, and Balzac. Jennifer introduced Claudine to the cultural and literary delights of the Big Apple. They learned a lot about each other in a short period of time. When the summer drew to a close, Jennifer pressed a locket into Claudine’s hand and told her to read the inscription on the flight home. After a teary-eyed departure at the airport, Claudine settled into her seat and opened the locket. If you have as much faith in our friendship as I do, I’ll never be far away. |
