Preparing For "Star Wars VII"

Don't you dare spoil why the force is awake!

So the next installment of the Star Wars franchise has just been released. I remember around two years ago when I first heard about the next movie. Needless to say, I've been waiting for the force to awaken for a very long time.

With that being said, here are some ways to prepare (and not ruin) this cinematic adventure:

If you're like me, and some other somewhat discouraged fans, you were not able to get tickets to see the midnight premiere. But for those of you who did... there is a special circle of Hell for you if you decide to post any spoilers to any social media site, or say anything about the movie before asking if we have also seen the movie.

We will attack you with our plastic lightsabers (complete with swoosh sound effects) if you spoil the movie. This is a big deal.

If you just can't get tickets to see the new movie, you can always watch the six previous movies to get yourself excited.

(For added fun, build Star Wars Legos while watching the movies; this is not childish and anyone who says so should leave the premises...forever.)

In the same way, playing Star Wars Legos video games (or any Star Wars video game) can be just as fun and can engage you in a way the movies might not let you.

On the other hand, it is important to consider all possibilities. The new movie might not live up to your exceptions. Chances are, the movie cannot possibly cover everything you want it to. (Especially if you really got behind the Jar Jar Binks as a sith lord theory like I did. I doubt that will actually happen in the movie)

So just relax and appreciate that the Star Wars franchise is still going strong. You've gotten a lot of joy from the anticipation of waiting for the movie to come out.

While it might seem a little late, there is always time to dress up when you go to see the movie. If you don't want to go in full costume: light saber and all, just bring a small item like a ring or necklace that helps you get into the mood for watching the movie.

In the end, this is all to help you get wrapped up in the moment and experience Star Wars as fully as you can.

Please enjoy your holiday and make some time to go out and see the movie. It's sure to be a big hit!

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.
