If Friends Characters Were Residence Halls

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at American chapter.

If you live on campus, then you know that living in a certain dorm means you belong to a certain community. Each dorm has a specific vibe, therefore influencing the residents within. Ever wonder what kind of person you are, based on the dorm you live in? Even better, ever wonder which Friends character you identify with the most? Well you’re in luck!

If you live in Anderson… You are Janice.

You are loud, vibrant, and full of life. Some people are afraid to venture in and get to know you, so you take the initiative to get to know them first! You are confident in who you are because you know that the right people love you for your quirks and charms. You embrace the unknown that your freshmen year offers, and you’re confident enough to say “bring it on!”

If you live in Centennial… You are Richard.

You are mature, classy, and everyone thinks you are cool. Being either sophomores or juniors, you have been around the block a few times, and can offer the best advice to those who ask. You can interact with those younger than you, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you understand them. However you embrace the fact that you have to live near them, and everyone respects you for it. Trust me. #Respect

If you live in Letts… You are Joey.

That’s right! You are loud and goofy, but everyone loves you for it. Like Joey, you are a massive food lover, using your meal swipes like a boss. #TDRlife. You have a good heart, and it shows. You may not understand everything that goes on, but hey, who does? People love you because of who you are optimistic, hopeful, and wide-eyed about college life. Don’t anyone dull your sparkle. You better #ShineBright like a diamond.

If you live in McDowell… You are Chandler. 

You’ve got a sarcastic charm to you, which everyone loves you for. You are a little goofy, but that’s why your floormates constantly want you around. No one will ever understand the bond you have with your roommate (your Joey, if you will), but they don’t need to. All that matter is that they got your back, and you’ll always make sure to bring them extra curly fries from the tavern. #Addicted

If you live in Cassell… You are Monica.

You have your own suite, and are equipped to handle grown up living. You are sometimes competitive when it comes to the laundry machine, the stove in the lounge, or the bathroom in your suite (you know what I am talking about). But overall, the apartment-like atmosphere lets you be independent, while still being there for your friends and neighbors. #IndependentWoman

If you live in Nebraska… You are Rachel.

You live in an apartment with your best friends, and had to work a little for the life you want. You had to be patient to get to the gold. You appreciate the finer things in life, including the people you surround yourself with. Some may call you spoiled, but hey, that’s just the haters talking. Just put your shades on, and keep doing you. #TheGoodLife

If you live in Hughes… You are Phoebe.

Like Phoebe, you are eccentric and quirky. You were thrown together through different programs (UC, Leadership Academy, etc.), so you know what it’s like to have a group of friends who all come from different walks of life. You may go through some tough times, but you try to face every problem with a sense of hopeful optimism. #HappyAllTheTime 

If you live in Leonard… You are Ross.

Living off to the side might make you a little forgotten, so you work hard to be seen. You know what you like and who you are, even if it’s a little different from the rest. You have a great group of friends who believe in you no matter what. You are a little clumsy, but who wouldn’t be when they have to walk the amphitheater every day? You are responsible, and smart, and know how to be the leader when it counts. #LeonardLife

If you live in Roper… You are Ben.

First off, you’re cute. People may forget about you every now and then, but it’s only because you are so far away. But you are loyal to your friends, and everyone loves you for it. You ask all the right questions, and know where to go for guidance. You the #realMVP. 

If you live in Clark… You are Marcel.

 

 
 
You are a good friend, always there for the people in your life whenever they need you. It doesn’t matter that others may not understand you, because you march to the beat of your own drum. You are cute as a button and it is hard for anyone to be mad at you. You are the life of the party, and you presence is missed when you aren’t there. Your friends understand that you are destined to do great things and can’t be confined to place for too long, so they support you know matter what. #freespirit
