7 Things That Excite Me More Than The Super Bowl

I'm not afraid to say that I don't care about the Super Bowl. There, I said it. Take a moment to gasp in disbelief before I explain.

Yes, I don't care about football. No, it's not because I'm a girl. From the way I see things, there are more girls who care about football than the ones who don't. It makes sense, doesn't it? A girl from an all-American family can easily love football. My family was never one that sat around and watched football together. My parents are from a different country and didn't value watching football to pass time. So I grew up not valuing it either. I just watch it for the halftime show and the commercials.

Here are some things that were more exciting to me this week than Super Bowl.

1. "Formation" by Beyonce.


The Queen is back and she's slaying. After over a year of not releasing any music, Beyonce released this video the day before the Superbowl and stole the Internet. If you're in love with this video as much as I am, then you'll be happy to know there's a bonus. You can find Formation-inspired merchandise here.

2. The SNL Skit "Bern Your Enthusiasm" Featuring Larry David.


Everyone knows Larry David is the only one that can perfectly pull off a Sanders impersonation. I've always been a big fan of SNL and this skit is the latest one on our friend Bernie and his daily obstacles in running for president. Always remember, at least have the decency to give a wipe before the shake.

3. Seattle Meowtropolitan

Seattle Meowtropolitan opened last December and it's by far, the most exciting thing since the Seahawks went to the Superbowl last year. Coffeeand Cats. My two great loves in one place. Life can't get much better than that. I have yet to visit it, but I know that the day I do, I will be in paradise. If you live in Seattle or are just passing through, you can't give up the opportunity to see this.

4. The Petition to Make Plizzanet Earth A Reality (I'm not kidding).


What started as an entertaining segment on Jimmy Kimmel is becoming loved by viewers everywhere. I'll be honest... Plizzanet Earth gives me life. The first time I saw this video, I laughed for 10 minutes which is too long to laugh about anything after it's already finished, but that's how much I loved it. I want this to be as real as the next Snoop Dogg fan so I signed this petition.

5. Watching "Making of A Murderer."

I'm late to every Netflix trend. It took Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos10 years to make this series and since nobody has stopped talking about it for a month, it must be good. Watching Netflix on a Sunday night beats football in my book. I'll just give this one a whirl.

6. A Bowl Of Carrots


I am more excited by a bowl of carrots than I am by the SuperBowl. True story!

7. Joan Rivers ripping apart my outfit on "Fashion Police."

If Joan Rivers was telling me that I looked like Lady Gaga in a convent or like someone who was fished out of the sea after jumping off the Titanic, I would just stop and say, "Joan Rivers? You're alive? Oh my God, I love you! Thank you." Joan could call me anything she wanted and I'd be so stoked that I'd forget what a Superbowl even is. RIP Joan Rivers, you still remain my inspiration.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
