11 Times Dr. House Was Real And Relatable

It's never lupus.

Remember "House?" The show that had many of us were hooked on and obsessed with for eight seasons? How could you forget the cane-wielding, rude, arrogant, and Vicodin-addicted doctor? That's the thing, you can't!

Throughout the series, Dr. House demonstrated his lack of care for rules and social norms. However, he also said many quotable bits that showed his understanding and deep-rooted sense of humanity, and because of that he was both real and relatable to many of us. Here are some of my favorites.

1. "Do you know how many times I wanted to just give up?"

Life is hard, sometimes. We all want to give up at times. That doesn't mean we should or that we can't reach our goals.

2. "I value your opinion. I value rejecting your opinion."

Isn't that how we argue?

3. "'Cause I'm the most screwed up person in the world."

We may feel this way during rough patches, but everyone has their own struggles.

4. "You don't need to depend on people who are gonna let you down."

Preach, Greg!

5. "People's brains stop working when they think they're gonna lose someone they love."

Truth.

6. "I like being alone. At least, I convince myself that I'm better off that way."

Introverts unite! On your own time and in your room by yourself, though.

7. "I cared for eight seconds, then I got distracted."

LOL, same.

8. "I'm fine, I'm just not happy."

Sometimes, this is how we want to respond to a simple "how are you?"

9. "Things change, doesn't mean they get better."

A little pessimistic, but change is change. Hope for the best, but prepare for all possible outcomes.

10. "I'm sorry I pushed you away. It's what I do when I'm afraid."

Feelings can be hard sometimes, even for House.

11. "Oh, God, stop. I'm in a pool of tears here."

Nothing like a touch of sarcasm.

Catch me binge-watching the entire series on Netflix... again, weekdays, at all times.

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.
