Things I have grown out of: my hatred for green beans, trusting my mother, Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny.
The list of things I haven't grown out of is much longer. Stuffed animals, ridiculous love, the color pink, hatred for beans. However, the main thing I haven't grown out of is the FOX tv show Bones , starring David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel.
My first memory of the show is my mother watching it in our living room. She told me it was a show about a woman who solved murders with nothing but bones. At the time, I shrugged, thinking the idea was cool but perfectly content to stick with NCIS as my favorite crime show.
When I got sick at my grandma's house, however, and Bones was the only thing on, I turned it on. A whole day and who knows how many episodes later, I was hooked. The episode that sticks out in my mind from that day is "The Girl with the Curl," the episode where two of the main characters' relationship changes in a big way. Long story short, I wish my first date had been as cute as theirs.
Now, I'm in the middle of the tenth season and I cannot believe how far these characters have come. The character development in this show is beautiful, and I'm so blessed to have gotten to grow up with them. From intern to intern, marriage to heartbreak, this show has changed me in ways I can't even begin to explain. It is a part of my very soul and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Check the show out. There are eleven seasons on Netflix, so it might take you a while, but this show is well worth the time and love you will put into it. I'll see you in the lab, fellow squinterns. ;)
