i admit
i admit that i don’t know what the hell happened.
i admit that i initially thought that if anyone would’ve called things off it would’ve been christina.
i admit that i loved the fact that burke seemed so sure from the very beginning , even if she was not.
i admit i thought that he had enough faith for the both of them.
i admit that it threw me off to watch him go from someone that was always pushing to suddenly pulling away.
i admit that i smiled as i heard christina talk about knowing that she was going to enjoy being married, but hated that damn wedding.
i admit that christina with no eyebrows what HILARIOUS!
i admit that i felt sorry for christina, but i understood her need to try to change to make her relationship work.
i admit that i know what it feels like to go from never really caring to doing everything you could to make something work all because of the person in your life.
i admit that i liked derek’s speech and the fact that he didn’t unknowingly cheat w/ “baby grey”, but i still think that he’s a jerk.
i admit that christina looked beautiful in her gown.
i admit that i kinda was glad that karma bit george in the ass when he failed his exam, but i wished to hell that it would have been jizzie.
i admit that i luh me some callie, but bailey should’ve gotten chief resident.
i admit that i felt meredith totally when she said that christina had to get married because if she did that it would give girls like them (i.e. ME) hope.
i admit that i could picture my roommates giving me the kick ass speech if i got cold feet at my wedding.
i admit that burke’s break-up speech was bullshyt - to me at least.
i admit that christina’s post break-up kirk out was even better than her post abortion kirk out.
i admit that i hate shonda for having all the men on the show have doubts about the gorgeous, intelligent, supportive women let the women appear to be victims of romantic circumstance.
i admit that i keep asking myself why can’t the women dump the men for a change?
i admit that meredith has got to be stressing the hell out of derek because his curls are beginning to turn grey (get it? haha).
i admit that i can’t wait to pick this up next season.
i admit that i’m about to send shonda a male escort or some zoloft because if season four is even remotely like season three, i’m gonna hafta find a new obsession.
Ms. Gray is getting on my nerves personally. She had the nerve to have an attitude when Derek said she didn’t treat him right? Please…people can only take so much! I’m surprised he stayed around for that long!
Amani and I have been having this ongoing battle for a while, and you are ABSOLUTELY right. She has been acting like an ass towards him, while he really has been trying to do the right thing. That’s great and all, but I just can’t find it in myself to cut him much slack because I’ve disliked him ever since he lied (by omission) about being married in season one and kept persuing her even while he was with Addison in season two. She should have left him alone a long time ago.
I feel like this is all a part of his relationship karma for how he behaved with both Grey AND Addison. He had both of them hanging on a string while he took time to figure things out. Now, he’s all invested and she’s pulling away. Doesn’t make it right…but have to say that I’m not mad that he’s feeling just as alone and frustrated as she did during the time that she waited around for him.

Actually, I don’t have any smart remarks or extensive responses here. I liked this post, it seemed pretty even-handed to me. That final scene was pretty moving. If she really did say that she was free, then maybe the moment was bittersweet for her. Hard to know. As for Burke, I’m curious why you thought his little speech was bee-sheep. And I must say I’m surprised you liked Derek’s speech. I mean, only because of your previous disdain for him. And no comment about the rest of the characters? I wanted a recap, dangit, not just a Yang/Burke mini-synopsis.
Yes, she did say that she was free. I wonder though if she meant the wedding for from the Burkeship because she truly seemed as though she was looking forward to their future - just not that damn wedding. I still hate Derek, but I thought that he showed true emotion in his speech. Still.can’t.stand.him. And since you’d already told me the entire episode before I watched it, I was just looking out for the main folks. I fast forwarded through the Chief and Adele and Korev and the elephant girl.

“i admit that i felt meredith totally when she said that christina had to get married because if she did that it would give girls like them (i.e. ME) hope. ”
I am right there with you on this one. I needed them to get married FOR ME dagnabbit. That just broke my heart. That and the scene when she was pointing out to Meredith how she knew he was gone. She knows him so well and loves him so much. NOT LIKING BURKE RIGHT NOW.
And while I love Bailey just as much as everybody else…..her interns did kill a man. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg for them. That alone would have knocked her out of the running in my eyes. I don’t want George and Izzy hooking up. She needs to learn that she can’t have whatever the hell she wants just because she wants it.
I know. That last scene brought tears to my eyes. And yeah, I forgot that Bailey’s team has been running amuck for 3 seasons now. I just adore her little bitty ass.

I knew Burke wasn’t going to get married. I mean, did you hear his vows? I was listening to him thinking “too bad Christina doesn’t feel the same way (SURE)”. I hate to see people go through w/ weddings when they KNOW thangs ain’t right. And, I can’t stand Izzie! She’s just NOT right. AND, Derek def. needs to get the boot. I mean, Merdith has been ENOUGH of a fool for him. I mean, she put herself on the line a few too many times for him, and isn’t it just like life that once he’s made up her mind, she’s not feeling it? Mmm.
I totally get how now that he’s ready she’s not. At this point, she doesn’t really have a reason to trust him because history has shown her that she has to have her guard up with him. I think that Christina felt the same way, but that it would take her time to be at the point that Burke was. I mean, look how she’s come from wanting him to just being a booty call to actually admitting to friends (happily I might add) that she was looking forward to the marriage. I.hate.Izzie. I always have. She’s one of those overly dramatic, everything’s urgent and it’s a crisis for me, type people that grate my nerves. Callie needs to stomp a mudhole in her.

See I finally watched the last three episodes while sequested on my couch this last weekend. When did it become a soap opera? Either way I was shocked to shyt when burke dumped chirstina was it because he’s been kicked off the show? Either way they tossed everything up in the air on the last show and I’m wondering how it’s going to land next season. That will be worth the wait.
