RANKING FRIENDS CHARACTERS

SO NO ONE TOLD YOU LIFE WAS GONNA BE THIS WAY
*clap clap clap clap*




I'm taking the difficult task of ranking the primary Friends characters, and crying over it.
Not literally, it's just a bit hard.


1. Phoebe Buffay

Phoebe is favourite, she's brilliant. Lisa Kudrow is brilliant. Three words to summarise Phoebe; clumsy, weird, and funny.

2. Chandler Bing

Three words to summarise Chandler; Awkward, Witty, Janice.

3. Monica Geller

Three words to summarise Monica; Controlling, Innocent, Proud
P.S. Fat Monica is my spirit animal

4. Joey Tribbiani

Three words to summarise Joey; Childlike, Confused, Flirty.

5. Rachel Green

Three words to summarise Rachel; Successful, Sassy, Loving

6. Ross Geller

Three words to summarise Ross; Divorce, Geek, Caring

The real question is...
Were they on a break?

That's all.

Bye for now.

MY THROWBACK PLAYLIST

HELLO

I'm feeling nostalgic today, so I thought I'd write a list of songs that are huge throwbacks. Some of these songs are even from 2010, but can we just consider that 2010 was 5 years ago, despite the fact it doesn't feel like it. In my terms, I'm 17 now, I was 12/13 in 2010. That's a hell of a throwback for me. Although, I guess it isn't really a throwback, how do you define throwback? I don't know. These are just songs that I remember vividly from my childhood.
Anyway, I'll include a link to a Spotify playlist I made with a whole lot more songs.

1. American Boy - Estelle feat. Kanye West

2. Beautiful Girls - Sean Kingston

3. Don't Stop The Music - Rihanna

4. I Gotta Feeling - The Black Eyed Peas

5. Breakaway - Kelly Clarkson

6. Low - Flo Ride feat. T-Pain

7. Reach - S Club 7

P.S.

8. Crazy - Gnarls Barkley

9. Girlfriend - Avril Lavigne

10. Hey Ya! - OutKast


Honorary Mentions
Fire Burning - Sean Kingston
Umbrella - Rihanna
Pure 'n' Simple - Hear'Say
Bye Bye Bye - NSync

Spotify Throwback Playlist
I'll add some more songs in due time.

That's all.

Bye for now.

TOP 10 ACTRESSES TO PLAY CAPTAIN MARVEL

Who can play Carol Danvers?

Otherwise known as Ms. Marvel, (but in this case, Captain Marvel to relate to the MCU film coming out starring the titular character), Carol Danvers is one great superhero. Seriously. 

Here are 10 actresses not named Katee Sackhoff
P.s. there's nothing a little hair dye can't fix

1. Charlize Theron 

2. Amanda Seyfried

3. Emily Blunt

4. Jena Malone

5. Natalie Dormer

6. Olivia Wilde 

7. Gemma Arterton 

8. Elizabeth Banks 

9. Taylor Schilling 

10. Billie Piper 

Honorary Mentions
Kaley Cuoco
Jennifer Lawrence
Emma Stone
Yvonne Strahovski
Anna Kendrick

Of all of these, I think the most likely would be Amanda Seyfried, Emily Blunt or Natalie Dormer. However, I'd love to see Billie in the role, she's got the acting ability and she looks like Captain Marvel anyway. 

Bizarre Mentions
Rebel Wilson
Miranda Hart
Beyoncé
Ellen DeGeneres

That's all.

Bye for now.

MY TOP 5 DOCTORS FROM DOCTOR WHO

HELLO!


This is complicated, because they're all playing the same character. Except, they're not, because each Doctor has their own distinct characteristics, and yet, of course it's the same character. My head hurts.

1. The Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith)



Matt Smith is my hero. No seriously. My favourite actor, my favourite person. I remember seeing him at the 50th Anniversary Celebration Event, with my friend, and I just lit up. I was so happy. I was also in the presence of Jenna Coleman so that may be why. The Eleventh Doctor is just this happy bundle of clumsiness who can suddenly become the most intense, dark Doctor within 1 minute. I think I can connect with Eleven because I'm also incredibly clumsy, and I have a fez (which has since become the 'community fez' in Sixth Form). When Eleven came aboard the TARDIS, I instantly welcomed him with open arms (which can't be said for Twelve, but that's a topic for another time). I became obsessed with Eleven, he's great. Funny, brave, intelligent, clumsy. I'm feeling a Matt Smith appreciation post coming up, maybe a Meryl Streep one as well (I don't know, I just feel obliged).

2. The Fifth Doctor (Peter Davison)


3. The Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann)


4. The Tenth Doctor (David Tennant)


5. The Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston) 



Honorary Mentions
Joanna Lumley's Doctor (Not official)
Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee)
Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker)

That's all.

Bye for now.
