back to the angst

Note: just got home from our family gathering in bulacan. it was okay, i guess.. except that cousins almi & em left me all alone there.. with nobody to talk to. thank goodness for "shaolin soccer" haha. at least i was entertained for a couple of hours. sheesh

season 4 of grey's anatomy is here.. and i was able to watch the first two episodes ("a change is gonna come" and "love/addiction"). it's kinda weird how i find comfort in watching a series that's so full of angst and melodrama.. but that's the way my brain is wired, i guess. freaky.

sandra oh's character, cristina yang, has got to be my favorite person in grey's. i wish i were more like her. and in many ways, i am. but i'm also a "meredith-ish" (damn, i wish i had mcdreamy..) - and that kinda irritates me.

but what the heck. here are a couple of quotes worth posting:

"I tell you that I love you, and not one word? For 17 days? Where have you been?" - izzie to george

"Change; we don’t like it, we fear it, but we can't stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. And it hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn’t is lying. But here's the truth: the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Oh, sometimes, change is ... everything." - meredith grey (narrating)

"Just because people do horrible things it doesn’t always mean they are horrible people." - izzie

"The thing about addiction is, it never ends well. Because eventually, whatever it is that was getting us high, stops feeling good, and starts to hurt. Still, they say you don’t kick the bad habit till you hit rock bottom. But how do you know when you’re there? Because no matter how badly a thing is hurting us, sometimes, letting it go hurts more." - meredith (narrating)

"I think the hardest part of kicking a habit is wanting to kick it… I mean, we get addicted for a reason, right? Often, too often, things that start out as just a normal part of your life at some point cross the line to obsessive. Compulsive. Out of control. It’s the high we’re chasing. The high that makes everything else… fade away." - meredith (voice over)
