Story time. There's a group of six friends, each with their own unique personality, who take on summer 2k17 together. They all know they'll be there for each other when the rain starts to pour, when it's not their week, month, or year, and when their life gets stuck in second gear. If you haven't guessed it already, I'm talking about the "Friends" gang and there's usually one of each of them in a friend group during the summer. Let's dive in {to the fountain}.
1. The One Who Provides Comic Relief
The jokes are probably not going to be good (who are we kidding, they're probably maxed out on the cheesy scale), but this friend will provide some form of comic relief. Even when they're having a rough day, they will somehow manage to crack a joke to make either themselves or the people around them chuckle a little.
2. The One Who Plans.. Chronically.
These people in a friend group are the ones who already have their planner marked up, textbooks purchased, and have their whole semester planned out already. A friend like this is great to have because they offer perspective... and they're usually one step ahead anyways!
3. The One Looking For A Summer Fling
You've always got to keep an eye on the flirts of the friend group. They have no shame in seeing eye candy on the beach and throwing a "how you doin'" at the person sitting at the booth across from you guys.
4. The One Who Doesn't Care
These are the free spirits of the friend group. They are always searching for an adventure and don't care what others think of them. They're the best people to turn to for advice, even when it's silly!
5. The One On A Break
In the show it relates to relationships, but in a group of friends, these are the ones who are just thrilled to be on break. They embrace their free schedules, relaxation time, and are open for anything as long as they can do it on their own time.
6. The One Who Parties
When they go on vacation, spend a week in their hometown, or travel the world for their summer, the first thing they look for are things to do. They are constantly searching for the hit spots where they can grab a drink, meet new people, and dance the night away!
The question I have for you is: which one (or ones) are you? Regardless, I hope your friends are there for you too.
