I'm Not Even a Star Wars Fan, But I Still Watch The Mandalorian

Even if you're not the hugest fan of the Star Wars series, don't knock the new show until you've tried it.

I'm Not Even a Star Wars Fan, But I Still Watch The Mandalorian

So, my family got Disney Plus at the end of November, and I was super excited to watch some old, nostalgic movies. I was scrolling through The Aristocats, The Little Mermaid, Toy Story, and other Disney movies until I stumbled upon something pretty interesting. Disney Plus has all of the Star Wars movies in addition to a new show called "The Mandalorian."

Now, hear me out: I don't really dig Star Wars. The original trilogy is pretty good because it's a classic hero story. All the movies after that, though, just seem like they are stretched a bit too far. The actors aren't as good and they don't have that nostalgic 1980's feel like the original movies do. When I saw this show, though, I decided to give it a chance in hopes that it would be better than the recent movies.

The Mandalorian is about a man named Mando. Mandalorians are supposed to be the greatest warriors in the entire galaxy, so obviously, Mando is pretty good at what he does, which is bounty hunting. He is originally part of a guild that works together to collect bounties and complete missions.

One bounty mission goes wrong, though, when Mando finds he is hunting a little green creature. You may have seen posts on Instagram or Facebook about "Baby Yoda." Well, Mando just couldn't let him go. The entire series so far is based around Mando keeping "Baby Yoda," or "The Child" safe from other bounty hunters.

As I said, I am not the biggest fan of Star Wars or any movies like that, but The Mandalorian is for sure worth a try. It has a good plot/ origin story for the protagonist, and the cutest little green guy ever. 10/10 would recommend!

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.
