I'm incredibly excited to see what 2019 brings, so I wrote a list of what is to come. Read below and find out what you should be looking for!

Reboots!

"Pet Sematary," "Dumbo," "The Lion King," "Jacob's Ladder," "Men In Black," "The Addams Family" and more will be remade in the new year.

A museum of the Statue of Liberty

In the museum, you go from room to room, learning how the statue was made. You'll almost feel as if you are in the sculptor's warehouse.

The ending of "Game of Thrones"

The last season of "Game of Thrones" will air this coming year. It had an incredible run, and this will no doubt be the best season yet.

Lets just say it's going to be a big year for Disney (Both Disney theme parks including more Star Wars, movies)

Disney is doing an incredible job. "Star Wars" is being incorporated into the theme parks, and movie after movie is being released. A few movies too that they are releasing are "The Lion King", "Dumbo", "Aladdin", "Avengers: End Game", etc.

It's a huge year for movies

The thing I'm most excited about are the movies being released this year. Some I'm most excited for include "Glass", "Hellboy," "Star Wars," "Frozen 2," "Pokemon," etc.

And books!

New and amazing books come out every year, but a certain few in 2019 include "The WInter of the Witch" by Katherine Arden, "The Road Beyond Ruin" by Gemma Liviero, "We Hope for Better Things" by Erin Bartels, etc.

Mahatma Gandhi turns 150

An incredible activist will be turning 150 on October 2nd!

We'll have 5 eclipses!

Five eclipses will grace us this year in parts of Argentina, Chile, South Pacific, South Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula!

An asteroid will hopefully miss Earth

There are suspicions that an Asteroid could hit Earth on February 1st, but it is very unlikely.

 The loss of certain species

In 2018 we lost a lot of amazing species to deforestation and hunting, like the last male northern white rhino. Species will only continue to decrease in the coming years.

 3D Printing

3D printing is coming to the medical field in amazing ways. Not only is it a fun little (expensive) project on the side, it's going to become something everyone will be talking about. It'll help with building medical tools, but 3D printers will also be sold to average everyday people.

 A royal baby

After sadly facing some ridicule and judgment from the media, there is finally great news! Meghan and Harry are expecting a baby sometime in the spring.

 Milestones

This year we can expect to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.

Every year comes new and crazy experiences, and this year seems like it's going to be even crazier than the last. Enjoy 2019 and make it the best year yet!

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.
