The Feelings Of Starting 'Grey's Anatomy'

Spoiler Alert: I didn't think it would kill me as much as it has.

The Feelings Of Starting 'Grey's Anatomy'

As per usual, with summer break came time to start binge-watching a show. After seeing post after post about all of this Grey's Anatomy hubbub, I decided to give it a shot. From friend recommendations to just sitting in for an episode or so, I figured why not, once I learn the characters I'm sure I still won't care too much. This was the moment I knew I messed up. Netflix has become a constant in my daily routine and the addiction is bad. A week into watching the series and I just started season three. My heart has been torn out roughly 30 times and I've had to pause the middle of nearly every episode to catch friends up on what I've just seen. Meredith has me in shambles here people!

Everything from dating McDreamy, and then Addison and this new vet, Alex and Izzie and Denny and Izzie, whatever the heck George thinks he's doing until Callie prances along, I mean c'mon people! Where are the writers and why aren't they considering how fragile that last episode made me! Watching more than two episodes at a time anymore is just not highly advised anymore, and if you can avoid the series, that's even better. Unless you're one of those people who finds comfort in cuddling a box of tissues in bed while yelling at fictitious characters. Basically what I'm trying to say here is that my world has come crashing down thanks to 45-minute episodes, and it's completely my fault. Every time I think it is OK to get attached to someone being around, something happens and either I hate them or they're dying.

So thank you for crushing all that I believe to be good, Grey's. You have crushed my hopes, dreams and worst of all, my trust. As soon as I begin trusting a character, they turn into the exact opposite of what I enjoyed them being for so long. But even after all of this, I return for the newest drama. I return to see what happens to those conjoined twins or that baby that Montgomery is saving because just for that little bit everything seems to come together flawlessly. Even though you've stabbed me in the back more than I can count, the immaculate execution of the show is just what I cannot tear myself away from. It's that car crash that you've been stuck in traffic that you slow down to check the scene only this is the inside look of that accident. No one said you had to look, but you're still going to, no matter how brutal the injury.

To those of you who are completely caught up, I applaud you. I'm still on the original cast and I don't know how much longer my heart can take this... I may need to call Burke soon, unless he dies too. I guess I'll just have to see.

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.
