How It All Began

Since I'm already on Season 7, I'll take the time to review the previous seasons (for those who haven't seen it) in these next couple of blogs. It begins where Rachel seeks help and finds her old high school friend, Monica. Rachel had just left her fiance, Barry, at the alter of their wedding. Ross is depressed over his recent divorce with his ex-wife Carol, who turned out to be a lesbian. Once he sees Rachel, he remembers the old crush he had on her, and realizes he still has feelings for Rachel. To add on to Ross' divorce, Carol turns out to be pregnant! He also ends up having a monkey named Marcel as a pet. After Ross tries to tell Rachel how he feels for her, he ends up having to go to China for business. While he's away, everyone gathers for Rachel's Birthday which is where Chandler spills the beans about Ross' secret crush on Rachel. She is shocked and doesn't know how to react to such news!!! Obviously this season is basically about 2 people, Rachel and Ross. Yet it only gets better..

SO WHO'S WHO???

Like I said earlier, FRIENDS is a show about the lives of 6 best friends. Let me introduce you to the main characters just in case you don't know them on the show. I'll start with Joey Tribianni. He's the clumsy, silly, "ladies' man" type of guy. He loves to act, and throughout the show you'll see how hard he tries to pursue his career as a successful actor. He may be the silly Joey we'll always remember, but you'll learn to know he is a kind hearted man inside. Next is Phoebe Buffay, her personality is similar to Joey's excluding the "ladies man" of course, but as for the silly and clumsy part, that's Phoebe! She's always the one stuck in strange situations. You must see them for yourselves. She's a masseuse, and a "Very Talented" singer (if you know what I mean). Ross Geller is the total opposite of Joey. He comes off as a little geeky, since he works as a paleontologist. He may be known as the dorky one, but you'll never guess how many divorces he goes through in the show. Nonetheless, Ross is a kind, loving, and funny character (and my personal favorite). Monica Geller is Ross' younger sister and there are only two words to describe her...NEAT FREAK! She's a perfectionist, has to have everything clean, and is very competitive in anything that involves being victorious (especially when it comes to her brother). Oh, and she's a chef. Rachel Green is your typical blond, rich, pretty girl, that every guy dreams of. After leaving her fiance at the alter on their day of their wedding, Rachel barges into the lives of the other 5 so lost and confused. She learns how to become an independent woman without the help of her family. (Rachel and Monica were best friends in high school, and Ross had the biggest crush on her but that's another crazy story so you must see that!!!) Last but not least is Chander Bing. Chandler is the funny guy of the 6 and is the one who always tells jokes at the wrong time, due to his awkward childhood (which you will hear about), he learns to hide his feelings through cracking jokes all the time. He's a bit shy when it comes to women, but toward the end he finds the girl of his dreams :). FRIENDS is a fantastic show about the true meaning of friendship and being there for one another. I'm currently on the 7th season , but until my next blog I'll give you the 4-1-1 on what's happened these last 7 seasons. Until then...Goodbye!!!!

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

Hello everyone, I'm Sonny. Have you ever heard of a TV show called FRIENDS? If you haven't don't worry, I didn't either until now. And if you have don't you love it?? I remember all through high school my best friend Ceci would always talk about FRIENDS and how it was such a good show, yet I never knew what she was talking about?? This past Thanksgiving break I was at Ceci's house (who happens to have all 10 seasons of FRIENDS) and finally put on the dvd, after I saw the first episode I became addicted. I've watched 7 seasons of FRIENDS in these last two months!! (Either I'm addicted or just don't have a life.) Anyway, even if the show's a few years old, I LOVE IT!!!
