SPOILER ALERT!

1. It’s never a boring day working in a hospital

Whether your patient is stuck in a slab of cement or there’s a bomb threat in the hospital, you’ll sure be entertained.

2. No matter the distance, best friends are best friends

Even after Cristina moved to Minnesota, she and Meredith still remained each others “person.” They had scheduled phone calls and video chat sessions. See, long distance friendships work!

3. It’s not ok to date your friends significant other

This should be common knowledge but Mark clearly wasn’t informed, especially when it came to Addison.

4. No matter how hard your day is, a dance party will make it all better.

When you have a tough day, dance it out. Boy troubles? Dance it out. And why not, add some tequila?

5. Nepotism gets you places

Let’s face it, Lexie and Meredith Grey get (got) special treatment because they are (were) Greys. And for Jackson Avery, it’s not just your pretty face, you're an Avery.

6. Icicles are can be beneficial

As painful as it must be do get stabbed with an icicle, Cristina did meet Owen. Love at first exam?

7. Living with your friends shows no boundaries

From Meredith walking in on people showering, to hearing the roomies in the “bedroom,” nothing is TMI.

8. Helping others can be detrimental to you

As great as it is being the big hero, sometimes, you don't make it out alive. Remember 007?

9. Fashion is always a priority

From the moment the plane crashed, all Christina cared about was her shoe

10. Not everyone is perfect

Just like McDreamy and McSteamy, underneath everyone's perfect exterior are many hidden secrets.

11. People will do anything for their loved ones.

Cutting LVAD wires? Cheating on an Alzheimer's Trial?

12. Life is short and can change within seconds, so enjoy it while you can.

Whether it's a plane crash or simply a car ride, your life can change in seconds.

13. It's ok to cry

Long day at work? Relationship issues? Your favorite character on a TV drama dies?

14. It's always a beautiful day to save lives!

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.
