LET'S TALK ABOUT: MONICA GELLER

It's been 21 years since FRIENDS first aired and 11 years since the finalé, and it still resounds in my heart as the best TV programme of all time. Owning the box set for six years now, and watching it from start to finish countless times, I have come to the conclusion that I simply am Monica Gellar. I am her, and she is me... and here is why.

01: My love for Chandler Bing is unconditional and uncontrollable

02: I freak out about the smallest things very easily

03: 'Overthink' is my middle name

04: I am a perfectionist - every pillow needs to be fluffed (especially when trying to impress)

05: I've been planning my wedding from an extremely young age

06: Ask anyone to describe me in one word, and they would probably pick 'loud'...

07: To sit at home and organise my life sounds more appealing to me than an evening out

08: My brother is someone that I would also call a close friend

09: I like to be in control of anything and everything

10: When I'm the centre of attention, I like to keep it that way (don't go stealing my thunder)

11: I had a fat phase... until I was 3, but still. There is a fat kid inside of me screaming for pizza

12: I cannot sleep if my flat is a mess. There is a place for everything and everything in its place

13: We share the same quirks (such as making the bed in a specific way)

14: When in a competition that I'm feeling passionate about, I can be oh so competitive

15: I'm one to look for serious relationships, and not just casual flings

16: If I were unable to have kids, I would adopt instead, and love those kids every bit as much

Growing up watching FRIENDS, all I have ever wanted is a tight-knit friendship group just like theirs. Hey, who knows? I'm technically in my twenties now, who knows what could happen... Are there any TV characters that remind you of yourself? Leave me a comment below!
