The Women of Grey's Anatomy
ABC

Grey's Anatomy has been a top TV show for ABC for 12 seasons. Shonda Rhimes has never ceased to amaze us. The women in Grey's Anatomy especially make the female viewers strive to be like the characters on the show. Meredith, Cristina, Izzy, Lexie, Arizona, Callie, the list goes on. Each woman has taught us something different that we all need to follow and admire.

Meredith Grey

Meredith teaches us time and time again that it is okay not to be happy all the time. Meredith's life always has some type of problem or crisis that keeps her from staying happy for a long period of time. She's dealt with her back and forth relationship with Derek, her mother passing, Derek getting shot, miscarriage, Cristina leaving, and Derek dying. If we should take advice from anyone about how it's okay to not stay happy all the time, it's Meredith Grey.

Cristina Yang

Cristina teaches us that we shouldn't let a man keep us from reaching our goals. We are just as important, if not more. We should not let what they want cloud what we want. We are the sun, as Cristina says.

Lexie Grey

Lexie teaches us that no matter what happens, we will always love the person we consider to be our soulmate. Lexie never gives up loving Mark Sloan, and she makes us want to love as much as she does.

Callie Torres

Callie teaches us that we sometimes need to stop complaining and move on with our lives. It's okay to sulk for awhile, but enough is enough. Our problems will not get solved complaining, we just need to get out there and live.

Arizona Robins

Arizona teaches us that we should never give up when there is a chance. There may not be a solution to every problem we face, but if there is even the slightest solution, we need to go for it.

Miranda Bailey

Miranda teaches us that moving on from bad experiences is essential to keeping ourselves sane. If we don't move on, we'll go crazy and never fully recover.

Isabel Stevens

Izzy teaches us that even if people do or have done terrible things, it doesn't make that person bad. Everyone makes mistakes, Izzy reminds us that we shouldn't judge someone based on their past decisions.

Amelia Sheppard

Amelia teaches us that we need to stand up for ourselves when someone tries to bring us down. We need to speak up and not let someone treat us like we are smaller than them.

April Kepner

April teaches us that sometimes events that happen in our lives don't make sense. We have to sit back and evaluate that sometimes things don't go our way and they don't make any sense.

The Grey's Anatomy women have taught us so many lessons throughout these 12 seasons. I for one am very grateful for these lessons and reminders from the Grey's women. They prove that women are strong and can handle anything thrown our way.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
