Shonda Rhimes, Are You Trying To Break My Heart?

I mean, seriously. You’re a great lady, but stop pulling on my heart strings.

Shonda Rhimes, Are You Trying To Break My Heart?
Huffington Post

No one has broken my heart more than Shonda Rhimes; the genius behind Grey’s Anatomy. I had known of the show but never watched more than a couple episodes. I was sick one day and began channel surfing when I came across a "Grey’s" marathon on Lifetime. I decided to see what the show was all about. 2 weeks later, I had watched every single season that was on Netflix. If you’re anything like me, you feel like you have been personally victimized by Shonda Rhimes. Let’s take a not so lovely stroll down memory lane of some of the most heartbreaking things to happen on "Grey’s Anatomy."

1. Denny Duequette

The moment Shonda decided this beautiful soul was going to die was the moment I realized I could no longer trust her. This was also the moment I realized whenever "Chasing Cars" begins to play in "Grey's," it's inevitable something bad is about to happen.

2. "Drowning on Dry Land"


The most heartbreaking part of this episode was watching McDreamy think that he was about to lose the love of his life.

3. Burke Leaving Cristina

No one saw this coming. If anything, people thought Cristina would be the one to leave Burke. It looked as though the scene was leading up to Burke checking on Cristina and making sure she was okay, but that thought was quickly shot down when Burke looked at Cristina and said, "I'm sorry."

4. Izzie & Cancer

When Denny said "I'm here for you, Izzie." and you finally understood what he meant, it was definitely a moment when your heart drops to your stomach.

5. Derek Hitting The Ring

If you're just as obsessed with Grey's as me, you feel as though you're a part of Meredith and Derek's relationship too. When Derek hit the engagement ring into the woods right in front of Mer, it's basically like he hit a part of your heart along with the ring. But, a couple episodes later, Derek proposed in a very McDreamy way so I'll let this one slide.

6. John Doe is 007

Personally, George was a favorite character of mine. The second Meredith realized George was John Doe, I started crying Justin Timberlake a river. The elevator scene with George and Izzie had me screaming at the TV. In conclusion, season 5 made me an emotional wreck.

7. The Plane Crash And Its Aftermath

This episode had everyone on edge. Lexie and Mark were easily one of the favorite couples on the show. It was crossing the line to kill off Lexie, but then Mark too?

8. Baby Bailey

Seeing Cristina and Derek run down the hallway to Meredith really made me appreciate their friendship even more than I did.

9. Jackson and April's Baby

When Jackson and April's baby was diagnosed with type two osteogenesis imperfecta, it meant the baby would only survive for a couple hours, if at all. Seeing them hurt how they did, really made you feel like they were your friends going through it.

10. McDreamy

Words can't begin to describe how much this absolutely killed Grey's Fans. Why couldn't he just have been sent off? He could've gone to be Cristina's partner in crime, or literally anything would've been better.

11. Arizona and Callie Fighting For Custody

It may just be be because this story line hit close to home for me, but this episode made my heart skip a couple beats.

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.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
