Super Bowl Commercials

Super Bowl XLIX, that football game when you won't be leaving the couch during the commercials.

Super Bowl Commercials

Over the past 49 years Super Bowl Sunday has taken the attention of millions of viewers all waiting to see who will take home the win. Even though everyone loves the game, the teams, and what not, some people are really only in it for the commercials.  This is probably the only time of the year that everyone stays planted on their couch and waits in anticipation for a commercial break.

Tons of big name brands and companies fight for spots to get their advertisements out there, such as McDonald's, Doritos, Skittles, Snickers, Bud Light, and many more. 


Here are a few of the best rated commercials that have been aired in the past....


All the way back in 1979 Coca-Cola aired this ad during the 13th Super Bowl.  It was said to one of the most heart felt American advertisements Coca-Cola has ever released.


The Budweiser commercial named "Respect" in 2002 shows Clydesdale horses bowing in respect towards the location of ground zero where 9/11 took place.


Said to be the most Super Bowl commercial with the most views ever shows a young boy trying to use to the "force", from the popular movies Star Wars, to move objects around his home.  Only at the end of the commercial does he finally walk up to his father's new Volkswagen does it seem to work.  While his father uses the key to start the engine from inside.


RadioShack went out on a limb and made fun of themselves in an 80's throwback commercial, showing how their store has improved.


More recently in 2014 Doritos aired a commercial where a time machine runs on Doritos...well more specifically the whole bag.


This up and coming year of 2015 had commercials from usual companies like Coca-Cola, Nissan, KIA, T-Mobile, and Snickers. Below are some of my favorites.


Snickers, The Brady Bunch Edition.


Kim Kardashian with T-Mobile.


And Budweiser with the lost dog and of course some more Clydesdale horses.

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.
