Now, I might come off as a loner and as a pathetic looser slouching in front of the telly all day, but I'm really not. I multitask, quite frequently :-) I am no stranger to writing a novel whilst watching
Dr. Who
or Scrubs.
As this would provide me with suspense or a laugh at an appropriate moment, this has proven to be a very fruitful back drop for my story-writing-business.
To get back to my gloomy week. Nothing serious going on in my life as such, I'm just approaching my exams and sensing the increasing wish to do well, and freaking out whether or not I'll do well. So what do I do? I have my curriculum on my lap, and a funny series on the box, and suddenly life is just that little slant brighter.
Many of you would think me a dinosaur when I just recently discovered "How I met you Mother." So be it ;-) I like it, and it makes me feel happy and a bit comforted.
They present unrealistic characters, but that's what I love about the show. Because who hasn't met a Barney?
Who doesn't know a couple like Lily and Marshall who has been together since the beginning of time, still going strong?
That couple who have the ability to make everyone vomit because they are so incredibly adorable, but who has depth and love for their friends like parents would their children.
Who haven't had a friend like Ted, the one trying to find the true love of his life, and most of the time making a mess as he goes along?
The only one remotely realistic could be the Robin-character, but then again, she has five dogs, and can't see a future with a husband or children, so she has her pet-peeves as well.
To conclude... this lot has made my evenings brighter, and for that reason alone I recommend How I met Your Mother.
