If you've never seen ABC's "Modern Family," stop what you're doing and watch it now. You won't be disappointed, especially when you meet Haley, the oldest of the Dunphy children. She is funny, smart and probably a lot like you. Here are 10 things about her you more than likely relate to.
1. She gets hangovers
TV shows don’t usually show what really happens the morning after drinking, but Haley shows us the real side of the “Irish flu” that we all get every weekend, and yet it never seems to stop us .
2. Her stalking skills are FBI level
She knows that it is very important to creep on any guy you may be going out with (or your ex, or your ex's new girlfriend) via Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. If you say you never Internet-stalk to find out information, you’re a liar. It’s about time we all admit the skills that Haley has are flawless.
3. She understand that a new hair do can change your life
With all the latest ombres, balayage and extensions trends out there, Hayley is on top of it, and so are you.
4. She gets in trouble
Like many people in our generation, she is a rebel. It’s finally time that a family comedy shows this. If you’ve never been caught sneaking out or had to run from the cops, you probably are just sneakier than the rest of us.
5. She gets what she wants
Haley knows how to talk to people and persuade them to do what she wants, without boundaries. Most of us have this down to an art.
6. She is stylish and always ready with fashion advice
Usually dressed in Free People, she works for a fashion designer and runs her own blog. Like many of us, she is always searching for the newest designs and tries to help her family do the same.
7. She likes to sleep
You get the point.
8. She sucks at driving
Our generation often gets blamed for causing accidents and driving distracted. Most of the time these accusations aren't too far off. Haley failed her driving test three times.
9. She likes bad boys
Who hasn't fallen for this guy? It might be fun to tag along in his rebellion for a little while, but like Haley, we know that it doesn't last with this guy forever.
10. She knows you always love the nice guy
During your 20s you usually realize this is the guy you want and deserve to date. After dating the bad boys, Haley ultimately falls for the nerd.
So move over, Marsha and DJ, there's a new idol in town.
