15 Thoughts I Had While Watching "Friends"
Mashable

A couple weeks ago, I finished the entire "Friends" series. I went on the whole journey with them from the opening scene in Central Perk to the dramatic zoom in on the door in the final scene. Throughout the 10 seasons, I shared with these goofballs, there were just some things I couldn't help but think about. Warning: spoilers ahead!!

1. How were they always free during the day time to hang out in Central Perk?

Don't they have jobs to be at during the day? I know in that one episode they talked about being there on their lunch breaks. Are lunch breaks really that long that you can make it to this coffee shop and spend time with your friends? How does everybody's lunch breaks line up with one another?

2. Why does Ross suck so much?

I mean, sure, Joey sleeps with women willy nilly and won't call them back, but he respects what they want and doesn't feel like they "owe" him anything. Ross is so entitled when it comes to women- I don't get it.

3. Speaking of that!

Why does Rachel have to worry about how Ross feels every time she wants to date a new guy? You've been broken up for 5 years- who cares what he thinks! You're allowed to date other people without his approval! Forget him!!

4. Wow, could I be any more like Chandler?

I find sarcastic comments to be a forte of mine.

5. Oh, but wait, now I really think I'm Phoebe.

We're both super loud and crazy and you never really know what's going to come out of my mouth (I don't even know myself sometimes, but that's beside the point).

6. No, wait Monica is me right there!

7. Alright, I'm basically just a really weird mixture of all them I can't pick just one character.

8. Why is Gunther invited to all of their parties? They're never friendly to him in the coffee shop?

9. How is that table always reserved for them? Do coffee shops take reservations often?

10. I hope one day my husband accepts all of my faults as lovingly as Chandler and Monica accept each others. They've embraced their quirks and it's made the love even stronger.

11. Watching Chandler dance is like watching me dance, and I'm not quite sure who I'm more embarrassed for really.

12. How is that apartment not covered in bird poop? Can chickens and ducks even be house trained?

13. How can Rachel give up that job in Paris for Ross? It's a fashion job! In Paris!!! But nope, you just have to go back with Ross!

14. ...Although, their reunion after she got off the plane did tug at my heartstrings. I'm a sucker for love what can I say?

15. Okay, this I'll remember to clap during the opening credits. Ugh, I missed it again. Oh well, guess I'll just have to watch another episode and get it right then!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
