You
know that feeling you get when you finish a book series or TV show series? That
feeling of “I’m not sure what to do with my life now” (only if you were very
attached to that series of course). But no matter how attached you were to that
book or TV show, you still feel a little sad when it ends because throughout
the series, you are living the journey with the characters and you can kind of
get how they are feeling, without going through the horrific or traumatic
experiences they are. Over spring break, I had this feeling when I finished my
newly found favorite TV show, How I Met Your Mother (HIMYM). I started it
sometime over Christmas break and I was officially hooked after the first 3
episodes.
HIMYM
is a great show not only because of the hilarious jokes, sappy love stories or
any of that fun stuff, but because I think it is very relatable. It showed how
friends come and go no matter how hard you try and keep them in your life. It
also shows how much can happen when you stop worrying about everything and just
let it happen. In the show, the more the characters tried to force things, the
more it would end up impacting them in the long run.
I very
much liked all the episodes especially the ones with the sappy lovey scenes,
like the very first one when Ted steals the blue French horn for Robin. During
that part, it sent a more powerful message to me than just a random guy going
in a stealing something to confess his love for the girl of his dreams, he did
it because he knew it would make her smile and all throughout the show, that’s all
he wanted was to see her smile and laugh. He could have told her something nice
or told her a joke or something but instead, he listened to what would really
make her happy and what she really wanted and went above and beyond with it.
All
throughout the show, there are many times of Ted trying to win over Robin’s
heart because deep down, he knows that they were meant to be together. SPOILER
ALERT!?!?!? Noooo, just kidding, I’ll just say that even in the very last
episode, AFTER Ted met the love of his life, he still does everything to be
with Robin and not going to lie here but the only part that I like out of the
last 3 episodes was that it ended just the way it started and I thought that
was really cool because it showed that no matter what happens between friends
true feelings about them never chance and you still will always have time to go
back and get the one you love.
Now
that I have touched on all the good parts in the end of the show, I’ll get to
the parts that I didn’t like very much….. IN THE NEXT ONE! So, fair warning, if
you haven’t seen it and don’t want to know what happens, DON’T READ IT UNTIL
YOU WATCH IT! Bye for now! J
