"How I Met Your Mother" gave us nine spectacular seasons and dozens of life lessons and hilarious moments. From "Ducky Tie" to "Robin Sparkles" to "Red Cowgirl Boots" to "Slapsgiving," there is not a question as to why this show lasted for so long and why people still enjoy it today via Netflix. Another reason why this show might have been such a smash was its relatability. It was about five regular friends, going through life one step at a time and dealing with normal problems. Thanks to Ted, Barney, Robin, Lilly, and Marshall, we saw how they dealt with even the most simple struggles.
Here's how I think that the gang would deal with the ultimate struggle: college.
1. When people ask you where you are from:
2. When you try taking composites or a yearbook photo:
3. When you think about going to your 8:30 a.m. class the next morning:
4. Waking up for your 8:30 a.m. class:
5. While you're sitting in your 8:30 a.m. class:
6. When you give a class presentation and get to use PowerPoint:
7. When you do not do too hot on a test you studied really hard for:
8. When midterms are coming up:
9. When your teacher says that this assignment cannot be done in a single night:
10. When you are watching Netflix by yourself on a Friday night:
11. When someone asks how your life is going outside of school:
12. When your cool, older friends take you out but you show your true, lame self:
13. When you have a panic attack in the middle of studying for finals:
14. When you miraculously pass your hardest final by the grace of God:
Just like how Ted got over women like Stella, Marshall got his dream job, and Robin learned how to embrace her teen pop Canadian past, you can get through Monday or a Religion exam. Remember, when in doubt, suit up.
