Most people say you're teenage years are the toughest. I call major bull on that. Being a twenty something has made me realize, these are our toughest years. These are the years we graduate and start adulting and you know grow up. I've learned a few things from Friends about adulting and living your life as a twenty something.
These are some very awkward times
I honestly thought my most awkward year was middle school years. But after becoming a twenty something I realize that I am Chandler and that awkward times are basically all I live for. And if I could get paid for it, I'd have over a million dollars for my awkwardness.
Like when you start a new job and have to make new friends
Okay so this isn't from Friends but honestly starting a new job can be very exciting, but making new friends can be tough. I mean if we can make them in grade school and then college we can make them at our new job right?
Everyone's getting married or engaged, and then there's you
Every single time I turn around, someone is either engaged or married. You're like 20 and you're already married. You were 6 yesterday. It can be a little discouraging from time to time if all your friends are in committed relationships or engaged and planning a wedding, but no worries you'll be next.
It's okay to be a little lost
When you're twenty something what even is a plan? To be honest no one who is in there twenties has a life plan quite yet. So drink some chocolate milk and breathe. It's okay not to know quite yet.
Being an adult isn't as terrifying as it sounds
Being twenty something means you're just a big kid... With an ID.. And a job... and an apartment... and bills... Okay okay but seriously when you think about it, you're technically just a kid, so it's acceptable to just build a box fort and watch TV.
You will find your Lobster
One thing I've learned from Phoebe Buffay is that love is like a lobster.... How? No idea, but when your lobster comes along it's a great thing. So wait. Don't rush it.
The way they flip people off is the best way
Enough said.
When one person says they're on a brake but doesn't make it clear to their spouse
Word of advice, either make it clear or have it come up a dozen times for the next 7 years.
Smelly cat will always be the greatest song ever written
When I first heard this song I fell in love with it.. I mean who wouldn't? Smelly Cat is just apart of our lives forever.
It's not Thanksgiving unless someone gets their head stuck in a turkey
One of the best episodes I've ever watched is the episode where Joey got the turkey stuck on his head. I don't think I've ever related to something so funny in my entire life.
Never get a spray tan.
Ross is a prime example as to why you shouldn't get a spray tan, and if you do, don't count Mississippi's.
When your refrigerator is broken... I mean....
When in doubt eat everything.
Phoebe's songs are so relatable.
I mean seriously. This song relates to every past relationship.
"How you Doin'?" will always be the best pick up line
Work life isn't all happiness and rainbows.
Sometimes work is just a pain and you truly do feel like killing someone.
Sometimes your soulmate has been there all along. You may be surprised.
Don't rush it. Sometimes your soulmate is right in front of you the entire time. And most of the time it's someone you'd never think would be your soulmate, turns out to be "the one".
And no matter what happens in life your Friends are always there for you.
Friendship is important. No matter what you've gone through, your best friends will be your rock through all the struggles that become life.
