Ever since I saw, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," I have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of "The Last Jedi" and it certainly did not disappoint. I won’t spoil anything for those who have not yet seen this delightful film, but I was INCREDIBLY excited to see a few folks!

1. Billie Lourd

As an avid "American Horror Story" fan, Season 7’s Winter was a great delight to see on-screen. I also was unaware until looking it up afterward, but Lourd is Carrie Fisher’s daughter. Although she had a small role, it was really cool seeing her rocking some adorable space buns in the movie.

2. BB8

BB8 is literally my favorite droid and will forever have a place in my heart. He is adorable and really funny and I was so glad to see him rolling his way around the galaxy again.

3. Kylo Ren

Kylo Ren can literally father my children. He’s been one of my favorites for a while and his conflicted dark side persona only gets more attractive in this movie. 11/10 would definitely join the dark side for him.

4. Laura Dern

Laura Dern has been someone that I seriously appreciate ever since she played Hazel’s mom in "The Fault In Our Stars." It took me a moment to realize it was her, but indeed, Laura Dern is featured in this movie with some rockin’ purple hair.

5. Rose

Female lead! Female lead! Female lead! Star Wars added another female lead to the mix. Her appearance in the movie is much like Finn’s in that she goes from background character to lead as she works with Finn and The Resistance. She's badass, killer smart, and a really great addition to the team.

6. The Porg

*"The Force Awakens" spoiler* At the conclusion of the last movie, Rey travels across the galaxy to finally locate Luke Skywalker on a faraway planet. The planet is lush and beautiful but the real stars of the show are some adorable bird-like creatures called porgs that live on the planet. They are literally the cutest ever and I would like to snuggle one.

7. The Vulptex

Another adorable galaxy creature, the vulptex — although notably less cuddly — is aww-worthy as heck. They appear to be ice foxes and their crystal fur is strikingly lovely. I also would appreciate a pet vulptex.

8. Rey

Rey literally has my heart. She is a phenomenal example of a female lead and she gets some mad character development going in this movie, even more so than her introduction in "The Force Awakens." I’m really excited to see where she’ll go from here, but I was very excited to see her in general.

9. Princess Leia

After Carrie Fisher’s recent death, it was comforting and mildly unsettling to see her in the film. This was obviously filmed before her death, however. Leia is still the most badass old lady in the galaxy and even in her old age, she’s still out there doing the damn thing. Go, Princess Leia!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
