Why Amy Schumer and Her New Movie Rock

No—I am not referring to the insane Amy from the addictive movie/book "Gone Girl." I am talking about the hilarious comedian I now want as my best friend, Amy Schumer. After seeing her recent movie "Trainwreck," I can proudly say that her film debut was undoubtedly a success. Starring as a commitment-fearing partier alongside Bill Hader, LeBron James, and a multitude of other killer celebrities, Amy clearly lets her natural, humorous personality and charm shine through into her on-screen character.

I had only heard of Amy Schumer via "The Bachelorette" and my tendency to eaves-drop on other conversations, but after seeing this movie, I can say it is definitely up there next to "Bridesmaids" on my list of laugh-til-you-cry movies. I don't want to ruin the movie, I just want to commend it for not being forcibly funny. The film was funny in its perfect amounts of emotions, including brotherly to romantic love. It adds a sort of realism and modern twist that most romantic comedies fail to recognize. In almost all those, we see the same story: boy likes girl, girl likes boy, something weird and dramatic happens, they break up, they magically get back together, and then the world is perfect again. However, "Trainwreck" is different in that it allows for more accurate scenarios to be seen on screen with a lot of ridiculously good humor. Do yourself a favor and go see it if you haven't yet.

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!
