Amanda's Pop Culture

I identified with the movies, music and television side of our pop culture during 2002.  The TV side that I most enjoyed most was the TV show “Friends.”

The show was about 6 friends, living in Manhattan, NY, trying to find success and love. The show first aired in September 2004 and made it through 10 seasons before being taken off the air in 2004 by NBC.

Courtney Cox’s character “ Monica “was the one that I remembered the most from the series as she starts out working this crappy job as a waitress, and through the series she had bad breakups and her friend Chandler who was always there for her. It was not realized until later in the series that they had a mutual attraction for one another. But, my point is that she brought herself up from a crappy job that she could not stand to work, to running her catering service.  Which just shows that if you work hard for what you want, eventually, you will get there through a lot of hard work and determination. 

 While it was more designed for comic relief; during the trials and tribulations of relationships and friendships. It did show me, at least that while you may feel like the whole world is against you, your friends are the ones who will be there with you on the curb, in the rain holding up an umbrella above the both of you while you cry on their shoulder.
