This is Us is a TV show many of you have probably watched or heard of. This is Us is one of my favorite TV shows to watch, especially while at school because it reminds me of my own family at times. Here are some examples of how This is Us reminds us all of our own hectic families.

1. Families aren't perfect

Between fighting and miscommunication, no families are perfect. There will be screaming matches or arguments but at the end of the day, you’re still a family. They aren’t going to know how to fix a situation right away, but they will figure it out.

2. You are going to go through hard times

From deaths to breakups you are going to go through hard times…luckily you have your family to lean on. They will always be there for you, even if they’re miles away.

3. They aren't going to always be there physically for you

From being miles apart, or on the other side of the country. You can’t attend every dinner or event. Yet you and your family can support each other through social media, phone calls, and thank you technology for facetime and skype!

4. They are your biggest cheerleaders

They might not be able to celebrate with you or be with you for a performance, after a meeting, or if you have big news—but they will always be your biggest cheerleaders! No matter how big or small the victory is, they will always be there to celebrate your accomplishments.

5. They will always be there for you

No matter how far away they are, they will always be there for you. For the hard times, and the happy times. They’re just a phone call away, a text away, and sometimes even a drive away.

No matter what they will be there for you.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
