"It's A Beautiful Day To Save Lives"

"They call her the Nazi." "Push one of epi." "Go scrub in"

If you didn't get any of the quotes above then you have not watched any 1 of 269 (and counting) episodes of the TV drama Grey's Anatomy. I feel in love with Meredith Grey and Derek Shepherd from the first random hookup they had in the first scene of the TV series. I spend most of my summer watching seasons 1 through 12 on NETFLIX and now that season 13 is airing on ABC, I COULD NOT BE MORE EXCITED. The show follows Dr. Grey and her crazy life as she does her residency to become a surgeon, while falling in love with her boss who JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE MARRIED. The show also follows other love stories within the other character. Not to mention TONS of surgery that Meredith and her friend fight to scrub in on. The medicine may not be 100% real, but it certainly keeps you on the edge of your seat. This show definitely is a show I could watch end on end and every get tired of it. This show also give just a small incite in the world of medicine and the amazement it is.

The show does feature LOTS of hotties as main characters, I mean Derek's nickname is McDreamy and Mark Sloan's nickname is McSteamy. But let's not forget about Dr. Jackson Avery and his gorgeous eyes, or Dr. Teddy Altman was beautiful. Sex really cells because not one of the cast members is ugly. The only thing that SUCKS about this show is that LITERALLY EVERYONE DIES. Some come close to dying, but because of the power of medicine, they pull through. Right when you think everything is perfect and nothing could go wrong.... DAMN Shonda Rhimes (creator of Grey's Anatomy) KILLS SOMEONE OFF. Some deaths hurt more than others, but sure enough I've cried if not a million times each season.

Media & People of Color

For a research project for my Media class, I was to take a topic and show how Media has impacted it. Naturally I choose to do people of color and media. I have never taken for granted the color of my skin and I will FIGHT to the death trying to defend, and educate, people of color.

It was fun researching the history of people of color and media. Of course some of the things I already knew, like the fact that people of color weren't well represented on TV or in movies, and if they did appear in a film, then they were a slave :/ or they were a sex-craved evil person. Yet to my surprise, I learned that the first African American to win an Oscar was a WOMEN. That's right, women are boss ass b*****.

Just seeing how far we have come towards equality seriously makes me so happy people don't understand. As someone who was bullied and put down because of the color of their skin, equality is something very close to my heart. Plus this project gave me an excuse to speak in Spanish and talk about Spanish shows so I'm happy.
