Your Daily Dose of FRIENDS


It's been a  decade  since the show ended but i keep finding myself re-watching the show hundreds of times. Up to this day friends still brings laughter to fans like myself. The show revolves around six friends in their mid-20s who try to jungle their personal and professional lives while living in a city that never sleeps.

The series follows six main characters throughout its run; Monica Geller is the mother figure of the group and a chef known for her bossy, perfectionist and competitive nature. Monica is often the subject of jokes by the other for having been extremely overweight as a child.
 Rachel Green is Monica's best friend from childhood, introduced to the show in the first season when she ran away from the altar on the day of her wedding. Rachel can be described as spoiled and self centered but throughout the series you start to see her develop more and more and can't help but fall for her.
 Phoebe Buffay is An eccentric masseuse and self-taught musician. Phoebe lived with her mother in uptown new York until her mother committed suicide living phoebe to fend for herself. Phoebe can be described as free spirited and street smart, she is often seen as weird by others but she doesn't seems to be concerned with what other people say  and lives live to the fullest.
 Joey Tribbiani is a struggling actor and is best known for his love of food and his famous pick up line "how you doin'?". joey is a simple minded womanizer with many short- term girlfriends throughout the series. Despite his womanizer tendencies,  Joey is an innocent and caring person with good intentions.
Chandler Bing is an executive in statistical analysis and data reconfiguration for a multi -national  corporation. Candler is known for is sarcastic sense of humor and bad luck in relationships.
 Ross Geller is Monica's older brother, a paleontologist working at the museum of natural history. Ross is a sweet-nurtured man of humor although he is clumsy and socially awkward. throughout the series we see that Ross has had quite a few failed relationships that has made him a more relatable
character.

The series touches upon many different issues that a lot of people face in their lives. One of the issues that I personally face now is finding something I'm passionate about that i want to do for the rest of my life.Chandler also faces this dilemma in the mid series, chandler was not happy with his job and want to pursue something he would enjoy to do and was not afraid to start all over again. This why this the show was a huge success because of the friendship between the characters and the dilemma's they face together.
