My Friends As Told By the Cast of How I Met Your Mother

Because HIMYM is the definition of real friendship

My Friends As Told By the Cast of How I Met Your Mother

It's been quite a while since I've watched the show, but I still remember every moment of every season, through Lily and Marshall getting married, to Marshall's dad dying, to Robin and Barney getting married, and even Ted finally getting to meet his future wife. This is an absolutely amazing show.

My friends are absolutely ridiculous, though I love them all dearly. I could totally cast this entire show with my friends specifically.

1. The Ted Mosby

The main character, the man who falls for his best friend and gets into way too many relationships and falls too hard, too fast. It takes him nine whole seasons, but he eventually finds the love of his life had been next to him the whole time.

2. The Marshall Eriksen

The side kick that honestly could have his own spin off with his wonderful wife and beautiful children and I would not be angry, not even in the slightest. Marshall and Lily to me are honestly relationship goals. They both have their own set of goals for themselves that eventually intersect, they may not always see eye to eye, but in the end they still love each other endlessly.

3. The Lily Aldrin

Lily is definitely the fun half of Lily and Marshall considering that Marshall is a lawyer and Lily is a kindergarten teacher. Their personalities compliment each other because of what they do with their lives. Lily is also an amazing friend to Robin, who will mention in the article soon. The people who are Lily and Marshall in my life definitely know who they are.

4. The Robin Scherbatsky

I feel like I am the Robin of my group. I'm strong and independent and honestly am okay with not having a man, but when I do find that man that makes me strive to do better, be a better version of myself, then I'll learn to open up and let him in. As for my relationship with my best friend, and for the sake of this article my "Lily", she's amazing, she's part of the reason of why I am who I am today, I wouldn't want to have anybody else as a best friend.

5. The Barney Stinson.

This man is lendgen...wait for it...dary. He's the inventor of the Bro Code. He comes up with any scheme to get a girl to like him, those most of those girls come and go, I am always right beside him to pick him up when he's down. He's also the only man I would know to have a true bachelor pad. Not only would he be the only man I would ever know to have a bachelor pad, but he would be the only one I would know to keep his true job under wraps from his friends, seems slightly sketchy.


HIMYM lovers of the internet do you agree with the blurbs about each character? Each member of the friend group is vital to the understanding of the show as each member in real life is vital one another's lives. I wouldn't change any of my friends' personalities for the world and I am so grateful that I have them to go through college with me.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
