I like fictional characters than real-life characters. Most of the
real-life hero's/ characters that I really admire, I got to delve into
their life's only after they were dead(...say Ayn Rand, Michael Jackson, Steve
Jobs and so on). I feel closer to these fictional characters from books,
movies, TV series than my real-time friends or family. I should be
sick. A schizophrenic? Yeah I always have this worry that when am old I
will end up being a schizophrenic. My nightmare!
Anyways, Christina from Grey's Anatomy sitcom, I adore her so much. Best creation of Shonda Rhimes. Most ambitious female surgeon who always puts her career in front of other things. Who is competitive, brilliant, aggressive, perfectionist, bullying and always on top of the game. In spite of all these it is hard to hate her. She never likes losing. And is so patronizing, adamant and firm to her beliefs or decisions. Yet there is a soft corner for her friend Meredeth Grey. Probably the only person on earth she trusts or cares for. In real life it is hard to find these type of people. Even if they are, they are polluted sooner or later by the circumstances, environment or situations. She acts to be cold, but she is too scared to let her emotions ruin her. I really admire how she survives the world. Like she calls Grey "her person", Christina is "my person".
It is so sad to know that in Season 10 she is will leave the show. And every time one of my favorite character dies( fictionally ) I feel the loss. As though I really lost a person. Strange how we develop these relations with the characters, strange sometimes how these bonds feel stronger than those that are made with real people. Way back I used to TALK to people when I had a problem. Crib endlessly even knowing that there is no solution to it. And down this self-pity, sabotage I met these people, these fictional people. With whom "talking" is as pointless as "talking" to real-people. Still I felt better. Every time I am off my mind, or there is something that worries me - there are the ones that come for my rescue. A half an hour to an hour watching one of these sitcoms am back in action :-).
Someone said "there is no friend loyal than a book", "Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend".
Well...hope to find a character as good as Christina somewhere sometime in this fictional world.
Not the least, Sandra Oh has done the justice to this character Christina. Sometimes I wonder is it the character or the performer we fall in love with?
