10 Phrases We Now Use Because Of Grey's Anatomy

Since the year 2005, the characters of "Grey's Anatomy" have been stealing our hearts and breaking them as well. In those 11 years, we've coined some of their quotes and used them as our own.

1. "You're my person."

Thanks to "Grey's Anatomy" we now have a new phrase for a friend that is even more than a friend. "My person" is someone you go to for everything and in Christina Yang's case, "If I murdered someone, she’s the person I’d call to help me drag the corpse across the living room floor. She’s my person."

2. "Dark and Twisty."

Meredith Grey refers to herself as this. With all the horrible things that happened to her at Seattle Grace Mercy, who blames her?

3. "The carousel never stops turning."

Ellis Grey was relentless with this saying. Translated, this means that life never stops--for everything that happens on a daily basis, you have to keep moving on.

4. "It's a beautiful day to save lives."

Derek Shepard's (rest his beautiful soul) line every time he walks into an operating room. His good luck charm that charmed every soul who watched.

5. "Pick me. Choose me. Love me."

Meredith Grey's infamous line to pre-husband Derek Shepard about choosing love between his "more-than-an-affair" and "soon-to-be-ex-wife".

6. "I'm just a girl in a bar."

The start of it all. Meredith says this to Derek the first time she meets him without knowing who he actually is.

7. "Dance it out."

The answer to everything. After anything horrible or awkward, grab "your person" and dance it out.

8. "Tequila is the answer."

Tequila is Grey and Yang's best friend. Technically, tequila would be their "person."

9. "Somebody sedate me!!"

For someone who doesn't show a lot of emotions, when everything unravels at once and the tears start forming, this is the only go-to thought.

10. And everyone's least favorite, "Everyone's dead."

Seriously though Shonda Rhimes, cut us some slack!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
