" Grey's Anatomy" is a television series like many others. For the 12 seasons it's been around, it has provided viewers with great advice and life lessons from each character. Here is a list of the characters and what you can learn from each of them after watching this show.

1. Derek "McDreamy" Shepherd

Be a leader, and do what you love each and every day because life most certainly is short.

2. Meredith Grey

No matter what life throws your way, be a strong individual and never give up.

3. Alex Karev

It doesn't matter what your past consists of or what others think about you. People are going to judge you either way so don't let it get to you, and think about yourself in the way you think. Everything is about the present and how you feel and think about yourself. So live and show people the person you truly are and what you have accomplished along the way.

4. Christina Yang


Follow your goals in life, and be the individual you want to be. Always work your a*s off because no one else is going to do it for you. Never be dependent on others, because they are going to think about themselves before you.

5. Mark Sloan

It's your life, and you can only go through life once so make it one you love and want it to be!

6. Miranda Bailey

Be able to push others through hard times and struggles along with your own. Fight 'til the end.

7. George O'Malley

It's OK to be different than the usual, there is much more to life than what the people in high school remember and think of you as.

8. Callie Torres

Don't be afraid to express the type of person you are to anyone because everyone is unique in their own special way.

9. Richard Weber

Have the bravery and strength to get through the things you're frightened of.

10. Izzy Stevens

It's OK to need a hand from others. We can't always get through things alone.

11. Addison Montgomery

Don't pass up on any great opportunity given to you for someone else, because it could change not only your life but also yourself for the better.

12. Arizona Robbins

Nobody is perfect in life so sometimes it's OK to give someone a second chance. Accept people for who they have become, not by the mistakes they've made.

13. Jackson Avery

Always perform to your fullest because you never know who's watching.

14. Owen Hunt


Everyone makes mistakes in life. You can't learn from things in life without making mistakes first.

15. April Kepner

Don't leave things unsaid. Tell others how you feel, and don't keep it inside to destroy you later on.

16. Amelia Shepherd


There will be struggles and challenges throughout everyone's lives but fight 'til the end. Push through the hard times 'til you can't push any longer.

17. Teddy Altman


In order to move on with your life, you have to move on and forget your past and not look back. It's very painful and hard, but it's the only way.

18. Lexie Grey


Life doesn't just work out the way we want it to. We as individuals have to turn life into the way we want it to be for ourselves, and the way we all plan.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
