Blog 5 TV

When I have free time, I love plopping down to a good movie or episode of my favorite tv show. Watching tv gives me a chance to relax and escape into a different world; it's almost like a break from reality. My all time favorite show is Friends! The plot lines in Friends are realistic enough to be believable and at the same time, they're hilarious. All six of the characters have such distinct personalities that watching the show always makes me want to know what quirky thing they'll say or do next. Also, I love that each episode of Friends is really short. If one day, I've really overworked my brain, I can turn on episode Friends and give my mind a break without worrying about wasting hours of time. TV, for me, is more of a relaxing activity than a form of entertainment. Of course, I do enjoy the stories being told to me, but more than anything else, it allows me to let go of all my personal worries (even if it's only for half an hour). I also love watching tv with my sister (we have similar taste in shows and movies) because it's always nice to have someone to laugh along with you and it's available at the push of a button!
