I’m not sure how many of y’all have seen or ever heard of the television show “New Girl.” It is a brand new series that stars Zooey Deschanel and is only nine episodes deep. If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it. The show revolves around Zooey’s character, Jess, who recently moved into an apartment with three men. Not too complicated of a plot right? I mean there are millions of comical directions the writers could take using that simple idea - which is exactly what happens. The show is filled with (in my opinion) funny/awkward situations. Add that to the quirkiness that surrounds Deschanel, and the show makes for a great laugh.
But enough about the series. I mean how realistic is anything on that show anyway? I mean sure, in this age it is socially acceptable for men and women to live together in a non-romantic way. But what are the odds that one quirky girl lives with all males? Here is where I raise my hand. I currently live with not three, but four boys! Of course I have a single bedroom, but other than that, the remainder of the house is shared. When I first heard of the show “New Girl,” I instantly thought of what my future living arrangements would be like - knowing I was moving in with all guys. I just moved into the house in January, and funny story, I often feel like my life involves tiny episodes of the series. So in some sense, I’m a real life new girl.
