From the very first episode of Grey's that I watched, I knew I had found my spirit animal in Cristina Yang. She tells it exactly how it is, accomplishes whatever she sets her mind to, loves people well, and only occasionally (okay, often) offends her peers.

Minus the whole cardio-thorasic genius thing, we're the same person.

Whenever I leave the house, really:

When I meet an awesome person:

When that constantly super stressed out person goes through their schedule of everything they have to do:

When all my roommates go out of town at the same time:

When I walk out of my last exam of the week:

That one professor:

And that one kid in 8 a.m. lecture with all the questions and comments:

Whenever I'm invited to a social gathering:

Swap nights in the fall:

Finals week:

Whenever I'm in a large group of girls:

When three exams fall on the same day:

And lastly, my room status always:

Thank you for never failing to express what I cannot, Cristina.

Haters gonna hate, but we all know that Cristina says what we would if we didn't care about manners or making friends. Not to mention, all her sass and sarcasm make those moments where she shows that she really does have a heart all that much sweeter.

She is there when someone she loves needs her, she doesn't get caught up in drama, and she will keep a secret to her grave if she needs to. She lives for her job, but when it comes to someone she loves, she is always there for them.

You may be more of a Merideth, but let's be honest, we all have our Cristina days.
