10 Favourite Quotes From "The Fosters"
FreeForm

"The Fosters" is one of my favourite reality TV shows (and I normally don't watch TV). It's about a teenage girl, Callie Jacob, who gets placed in a foster home with a lesbian couple and their blend of biological, adoptive and foster children. It focuses on a lot of really controversial issues and that's why I love it so much. There are so many great moments and quotes, so I'm going to share with you today my 10 Favourite Quotes from "The Fosters" that speak for themselves


1. "We probably judge ourselves way harsher than anyone judges us" -Ana Gutierrez

It's okay to give yourself grace sometimes


2. "DNA doesn't make a family, Love does." -Lena Adams Foster

Who you call your family doesn't have to be those who are related to you by blood. Sometimes the best families are the ones who aren't.


3. "There's nothing wrong with being different." -Lena Adams Foster

Be who you are. Embrace it. As the famous Dr. Seuss says, those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.


4. "Sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness than for permission" -Mariana Foster

(This is one of the more mischievous quotes, where Mariana would rather do something without asking for her moms permission but rather asking for forgiveness later)

5. "Who I love shouldn't be an issue for you or anyone else" -Stephanie Foster

In a world where the idea of who a person loves has become such a big issue, who you love is who you love. You shouldn't ever let anyone tell you it's an issue. If they have an issue with who you love, that's something they need to work out alone.


6. "Why does everyone go around labeling people?" -Jude Adams Foster

Makes us think. Why do we go around putting labels on people? Good or bad ones.


7. "You do what you have to do for the sake of your family" -Lena Adams Foster

Family always comes first. Sometimes the hardest thing in the world is the thing you have to do for your family.


8. "You are a mathematical equation which I have yet to solve." -A.J. Hensdale

Because this show isn't just all sad stories. There's romance and awful pickup lines!


9. "You're not disposable Callie. You're not worthless." -Stephanie Foster

No human should ever feel like they're worthless or disposable. Because they're not. Everyone is worthy of love.


10. "When you continue to justify your actions, it's a pretty clear sign that you've lost your sight of right and wrong." -Lena Adams Foster

You can't justify everything that you do because then it's very clear that you've become desensitized to right and wrong. You have no clear pathway and/or rules and morals to tell you.


Have I convinced you to watch the show yet?! It's on Netflix if you're interested. It really is an amazing show, and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone that I could.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
