The Superhero Movie We've Been Waiting For
IMDB

Last weekend a friend and I saw Wonder Woman. Even though I heard it was good I wasn't sure if i was going to like it. Was it going to be some horrible female empowerment film that doesn't really empower women at all? No, it was amazing. It was so refreshing to watch a movie like that. Having a heroine like Wonder Woman is almost unheard of in movies. She was badass in every way. She wasn't just a kickass fighter; she has power, grace, and beauty.

Captain Steve Trevor was another great character. I was concerned that they were going to make him a weak character that just swoons over Wonder Woman (like how it goes in most movie where the guy is the hero and the girl just can't help but fall in love with him). To my relief he wasn't. He was a very well rounded character that in someways was much like Wonder Woman, making their romance so much more believable. He and Wonder Woman worked so well together. Captain Trevor and his romance with Wonder Woman was another refreshing factor in the movie. Also I don't blame him for saying he was above average for a man when Wonder Woman asked if all men were like him, because what guy wouldn't say that when a hot girl asks him that kind of question.

Wonder Woman was portrayed by Israeli actress Gal Gadot, who is absolutely gorgeous. In my opinion, Gal was a perfect match to play such a character like Wonder Woman. Gal served in the Israeli Defense Force for two years already making her a certified badass. It's actually sad that she gets so much heat for being a soldier, I think its what made her such a great fit to play Wonder Woman. I don't think playing Wonder Woman was very hard for her, because she is already everything Wonder Woman is.

If you haven't seen this movie yet go see it now before its too late. Movies like this don't come around very often.

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.
