Why I'm Team Alex Karev

Sorry DeLuca, I'm on fratboy's side

Why I'm Team Alex Karev

I've been watching "Greys Anatomy" since the very beginning. That's right I have watched ALL twelve seasons and the two episodes of season thirteen. When I started watching it, I absolutely despised Alex Karev but watching him grow has made me oddly side with him in this Karev vs. DeLuca fight.

If you aren't familiar with what I'm talking about I'll gladly catch you up. Alex proposed to his girlfriend Jo. She said no. He was angry because he has been married and hurt before. She also wouldn't give him a reason. Alex storms out and Jo goes out with her friend and colleague, Stephanie to a bar. Stephanie had to leave but then decided to leave Jo with none other than the intern, Andrew DeLuca. Jo wanted to go home but obviously wasn't fit to drive so DeLuca offered to drive her. When they arrived home, Jo said she was tired and wanted to get into bed. She then tells DeLuca that the reason she can't marry Alex is because she's already married. She ran away from her abusive husband and changed her name. DeLuca at this point looks stunned standing in front of her. In walks an angry Alex and his mind thinks the worst. He then beats DeLuca half to death.

Now I know, what you're thinking. Especially because I said he beat him half to death. Even though I do not condone Alex's actions at that present moment, I don't think he should go to jail or lose his license.

Alex isn't perfect but he always protects the people he cares most about. He did not lash out at DeLuca randomly, he really thought Jo (the girl he loves) was in immediate danger. This may have had to do with the fact that his father used to abuse his mother and himself when he was younger. When Izzie, his ex-wife had cancer he was always by her side. He has also been in pediatrics for the last few seasons and has bonded with all of his patients. When Cristina left, Meredith was in despair. But, Alex was there to fill in for her as her person. He also stood by her side and helped with her children when Meredith's husband Derek died. Do I have to go on??

In conclusion, I hope that Andrew recovers very soon and can get back to work. I don't think Alex would ever do something like this again. Given the chance, Alex would use this as another chance to grow.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
