So many times "Grey's Anatomy" and its characters hit us in our feels. Some of the quotes they give us to reflect on are more serious, some are funny and some are meant to be looked at in different perspectives.

The following are just a select few quotes that "Grey's Anatomy" creator, Shonda Rhimes, gave us to think about a little more than others.

1. "Don't let what he wants eclipse what you need. He is very dreamy, but he is not the sun, you are." -Cristina Yang

2. "Pick me. Choose me. Love me." -Meredith Grey

3. "We can be extraordinary together." -Meredith Grey

4. "It's good to be scared. It means you still have something to lose." -Richard Webber

5. "It's a beautiful day to save lives." -Derek Shepherd

6. "You will always be my person." -Cristina Yang and Meredith Grey

7. "The carousel never stops turning." -Ellis Grey

8. "Have some fire. Be unstoppable. Be a force of nature. Be better than anyone here and don't give a damn about what anyone thinks." -Cristina Yang

9. "Maybe we have to get a little messed up before we can step up." -Alex Karen

10. "If you love someone, you tell them. Even if you're scared it's not the right thing. Even if you're scared that it'll cause problems. Even if you're scared it'll burn your life to the ground, you say it, and you say it loud and you go from there." -Mark Sloan

11. "Don't spend all your time wondering what you are, or who you like, or whether it's right for you or wrong for you. Just let yourself be happy." -Callie Torres

12. "You were like coming up for fresh air. It's like I was drowning and you saved me." -Derek Shepherd

13. "I loved you so much that when I got to come back for you, I thought you were my heaven. But maybe, maybe I'm your hell." -Denny Duquette

14. "There comes a time where it all becomes too much. When we get too tired to fight anymore. So we give up. That's when the real work begins. To find hope where there seems to be absolutely none at all." -Cristina Yang

15. "It's important to take the time to tell the people you love how much you love them while they can hear you." -Meredith Grey

16. "Please, don't chase me anymore, unless you are ready to catch me." -Callie Torres

17. "There's a reason I said I'd be happy alone. It wasn't because I thought I'd be happy alone. It was because I thought if I loved someone and then it fell apart, I might not make it. It's easier to be alone. Because what if you learn that you need love and then you don't have it? What if you like it and lean on it? What if you shape your life around it and then it falls apart? Can you even survive that kind of pain? Losing love is like organ damage. It's like dying. The only difference is, death ends. This? It could go on forever." -Meredith Grey

18. "It always feels like there is just one person in this world to love. And then you find somebody else, and it just seems crazy that you were ever worried in the first place." -Lexie Grey

19. "It'll hurt. Every time you think of her. But over time, it will hurt less and less. And eventually you'll remember her and it will only hurt a little." -Cristina Yang

20. "Time flies. Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. All any of us want is more time. Time to stand up. Time to grow up. Time to let go. Time." -Meredith Grey

21. "There's an end to every storm. Once all the trees have been uprooted, once all the houses have been ripped apart, the wind will hush, the clouds will part, the rain will stop. The sky will clear in an instant and only then, in those quiet moments after the storm, do we learn who was strong enough to survive it." -Meredith Grey

22. "Don't spend all your time wondering what you are, or who you like, or whether it's right for you or wrong for you. Just let yourself be happy." -Callie Torres

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
