Vicariously reliving my teenage years Through "My Mad Fat Diary"

I decided to check out what this show was about because I stumbled upon a GIF from one of the episodes on Tumblr and it was so freaking adorable, I just had to find out WHAT IT WAS!! And boy was I glad I did!! First of all this show deals with some serious issues. And it does so in a very captivating manner that it just hits you right in the core of your heart! It takes you back to those adolescent years of being a teenager and exploring Life and Love. At first you'd think "oh this is just another show about teenagers drinking and doin' it all the time" well it's not! Yes it involves drinking and they talk about sex a lot! (but hey what show doesn't these days) But it's the way the topics are approached that makes it different somehow. It explores both the bright and dark sides of being a teenager. The insecurities that most people face when they're young and how they choose to deal with them. The dark choices we decide to make when it becomes to much to bare, the weight of being young and insecure and wanting to be accepted. It takes all those bad things and infuses them with a beautiful, delicate, innocent story about well Love! Love and the friendships we make along the way which help us get through the rough hurdles of life. ANYWAYS not to make it sound like a completely depressing show (which it's not really) and I won't give away too much of the story but for all it's worth this show is definitely worth checking out, it has some amazing moments, that will make you smile, cry, and laugh hysterically as you explore life though the eyes of the remarkable "Rae Earl".
ALSO one more super important thing this show has to offer that just makes it AhhhhMazing THE MUSIC. It's set in the 90's and they focus on certain bands, so expect a lot of Oasis, Stone Roses, Blur, Radiohead, The Smiths, The Cure, all the best music from the 90's really! ( yes even Spaceman by Babylon Zoo) and get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey!

                                                  And here it is the GIF that started it all!!!

what really got me was the cute thing with moving the pillow to see her! 

aaaand the scrunching of the faces, ADORABLE! 

I've Got A Pickle to Pick With You Shonda

Seattle Grace's Notorious Reaper

Dear Ms. Rhimes,

I come to you, exasperated. I am pondering whether you helped us get a little stronger or just plainly and unrelentingly crushed our drained souls. For so long I wanted to understand WHY you did what you did. Shall I list the horror of events not in chronological order because they are jammed in my head like one endless hell? My pleasure!

1. George under a bus
2. Miscarried babes
3. Psycho shooter (who BTW lost his wife tragically episodes back) 
4. Lexie under a plane. Then tying our emotions to a truck which spun them round and round in dirt until they were transformed to waste. Do you recall how we spent two episodes unaware if Lexie was truly gone? Was it by design that she so easily disappeared? Maybe it was one of your life lessons; we move on despite anything. In my opinion, the characters, as well as traumatized audience, were so used to death by now that they actually welcomed it with a warm smile.
5. That episode when a couple were brought in to the hospital of doom. They were having a fight because the lady wanted a proposal and the guy kept postponing. He had bought her a cheap necklace that night again, and she went ballistic. Naturally he then dies. (Death LOL) But that was not the brutality of it all. No, no no! We later realize he had been wanting to propose that same night, with that same necklace which carried a message inside the locket. Nevertheless he died and she never found out. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WOMAN!
6. Mark Sloan.
7. Owen cheating. I drew the line right here Ma'am. You'd think a more horrendous misdemeanor from your part would have taunted me so, but truthfully this took the cake!
8. Denny and his ghost.
9. New contract and a new season

I could go on and on Ms. Rhimes. BUT YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT. 

I am probably to blame too, as I kept coming back for more pain, more sadness, and more heartbreak. I craved it, one week after the other, like a dumb fool. But really, do these nightmarish plots come to you easily? Did you decide from an early age that humanity needed a wake-up call, or did you experience immense heartache for so long, and therefore wanted to find release somehow? I become paranoid every time some tragic event occurs in other series. I remember I had to google whether you were one of the producers on Downton Abbey in its last couple of episodes. You weren't. Although for a long while I believed it.

Anyway, your work remains a work of art. Artistically heart wrenching that is. 

You trouble me so Shonda. I fear season 10. 

Believe in butterflies, please!

Sincerely,

a confused and worried fan
