5 Reasons Why You Might Be Robin Scherbatsky


It’s no secret that I watch too much T.V. No matter what country or what hospital I’m in, I always find a way to keep up on my favorite series. How I Met Your Mother happens to be one of those series, and Robin Scherbatsky – the no-nonsense, hard-hitting journalist – happens to be one of my favorites.

I know I’m not alone in this (the show is in its eighth season, after all). So for every lady out there who’d rather travel the world than plan a wedding, or’d choose a Ferrari over a baby, here’s to you.

1) You love a scotch that’s old enough to order its own scotch.

I love scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Unfortunately, most Chinese think that a glass of wine makes you a hardcore alcoholic. I’ve resigned myself to taking shots of Nutella instead.

2) You’re not exactly the biggest confronter of feelings.

Why have The Talk when there are so many great things to do with the human mouth (see above)?

3) You think fighting is sexy.

No, I do not... a lot!

4) You have five dogs.

Honestly, I only have one dog. More honestly, she’s really kind of a squirrel. But in Thailand, I did find myself with five orphaned puppies (don’t worry, they all found good homes), so yeah. I get it.

5) Whenever you’re feeling lonely or depressed you go to the shooting range.

And it reminds you... guns are fun! When I was five, my deer-hunting grandpa let me fire his shotgun – less fun. Then, while briefly living in Virginia, I ultimately discovered the awesomeness that is a shooting range.

Next on the list? Archery and wilderness survival. That, or becoming a Canadian pop star. Toss up.
