Nursing School As Told By Grey's Anatomy

Nursing School As Told By Grey's Anatomy
Breathe Cast

Everyone said majoring in nursing would be extremely hard yet just as equally as satisfying. The first hurdle of your journey is to get accepted into a well accredited institution, and as if that wasn't hard enough, your real journey didn't even really start yet. Nursing school is extremely time consuming; you'll be finding yourself spending your free time studying, making hundreds of flashcards or attending open labs for extra bonus points. Anyone that watches "Grey's Anatomy" knows that it is an emotional roller-coaster; anything could happen at any second. "Grey's" has a story line similar to how nurses interact within hospitals. Through GIFs, here are 16 ways how Grey's Anatomy depicts nursing school.

1. Between divvying up your free time between studying, clinical and having a social life, you find yourself shoving food down your throat to not waste time.

2. When a teacher asks a ridiculously hard question, you take that leap of faith and blurt out an answer, and you actually get it right.

3. That one person who always brags about their grade.

4. Once in a while, everyone thinks about giving up or changing their major.

5. You have four exams, two labs to finish and, a paper to do and your whole life is falling apart.

6. Walking around in your scrubs thinking you look like the shit.

7. When your parents ask why your grades aren't better than they are.

8. Being so sleep deprived from staying up all night cramming.

9. You'll meet the one person who understands what you're going through, practically the only one who can keep you sane.

10. When you don't know where anything is the first day of clinical.

11. When you're about to take a lab practical, you need to get a good seat to see the screen.

12. There's always that one person who always talks during an important lecture.

13. When one of your professors thinks their corny medical jokes are funny.

14. When everyone else bombed the test that you secretly did well on.

15. In nursing school, there tends to be more than one "right" answer, so you're forced to pick the best answer.

16. At the end of the day, you wouldn't change your major for anything because nursing picked you; you didn't pick nursing.

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.
