Beer & Skittles: F.R.I.E.N.D.S Reunion

The well-known orange couch at Central Perk, the iconic fountain and the golden frame hung on the purple door. All of that brings back memories for the cast of Friends, an American television sitcom created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman. Lasting for as long as 10 seasons from September 22, 1994, to May 6, 2004, the series revolved around six friends in their 20s and 30s who live in Manhattan, New York City. Throughout the series, fans got to know each of the characters of the show and grew up with them, which include Rachel Green (played by Jennifer Aniston), Monica Geller (played by Courteney Cox), Phoebe Buffay (played by Lisa Kudrow), Joey Tribbiani (played by Matt LeBlanc), Chandler Bings (played by Matthew Perry) and Ross Geller (played by David Schwimmer). And finally, after the series officially ended, they are back! Since the finale, the cast have only been in a room together only once, until now. 17 years later, HBO presents everyone with Friends: The Reunion.

Echo Eats: Offering you the Inside Scoop

Cone, Scoop, Dip, Sprinkles, Toppings, Sundae, Floats, Splits, and the list could go on and on. Shoot the breeze with frozen fantasies! 1, 2, 3, in one breath, Ice Cream! Ladies and Gentleman, it’s time for the real talk. ‘Had a bad day? Have a bowl of ice cream. Had a good day? Celebrate with a bowl of ice cream.’, wise words indeed from John Harrison, Dreyer’s official ice cream taste tester. A man whose tongue is so sensitive, it’s been insured for millions of dollars. Returning to the matter at hand, ice cream being the star of frozen desserts is no doubt irresistible for its enchanting sugary and creamy concoction. No need for self-blame. Ice cream is perfectly engineered, so much so it is indistinguishable from magic.

Sunway Big Talk

WHO IS SUNWAY BIG TALK?

Anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski noted in his essay that a great deal of talk does not serve any purpose of communicating ideas but establishes bonds of personal union. This concept holds the foundation for the fresh club that kicked off at the beginning of 2020-SUNWAY BIG TALK. ‘Human Connection’ is an important aspect that a simple conversation always fails to emphasize. Small talk, or better known by the Oxford Dictionary as a polite conversation about unimportant matters, does not fit the description to connect with people on a profound emotional and intellectual level.
