F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

Hello Guys,

     So today I was taking a break from the hardcore studying (Yearlies, argh!) and looking through the titles of all the posts on 'A Part of Us.' There were quite a few drafts that Vivian had never published. I won't reveal the content of those drafts, just in case if Vivian decides to finish them any time soon, but one of them caught my eye.

     Apparently F.R.I.E.N.D.S. is back on Gem. Whatever Gem is. I'm going to take an educated guess, and say that it's a TV Channel. Which therefore means that F.R.I.E.N.D.S. is back on TV.

     Yes!

     Before I knew about How I Met Your Mother, and before I knew that the series had already finished, F.R.I.E.N.D.S. was my favourite show. Chandler's quick wit and Joey's "How ya doin?" just always kept me in hysterics, and I loved Phoebe's ditzyness along with Rachel's ignorance too. I should probably say something about Monica and Ross too... but they didn't really seem to have a really special trait. Other than the fact that Ross was the socially awkward one, and Monica seemed to be the mature one.

     Anyway, I've never actually seen the entire F.R.I.E.N.D.S. show. That's because whenever it's on TV, it's irregular and only shows maybe one or two of the seasons before it is replaced by something newer and fancier (I remember one time it was Gary Unmarried. Where the hell did that go?). I have, however, attempted to watch the entire series from the beginning, online, many times. As unsuccessful as those varied attempts have been, they still count for something!

     It was in Year 6, when one of my classmates gave me the crushing blow. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. was over. I refused to believe it at first, but alas, it was true. I searched up on the internet, and there it was. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. 10th and Final Season. Starting at US $9.99 on ebay. It was the most depressing moment of my life.

     And then, I found How I Met Your Mother. The world is right again. Thank you, Barney Stinson.

I guess that was an abrupt ending, but oh well. Thanks for reading!
