Why 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2' Has Everyone Excited

Why 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2' Has Everyone Excited
USA Today

There're a lot of movies from the early 2000s that are simply classics. To name a few, we had "She's The Man," "Mean Girls," "13 Going On 30," and "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants." But one that always reigned at the top was "My Big Fat Greek Wedding."

Thirteen years later, the internet broke out in excitement over the sequel's trailer. That's right, friends, our favorite Greek family is back for "My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2." While Ian and Toula's daughter is preparing to leave for college, Gus and Maria find out that the priest who officiated their wedding forgot to sign the paperwork. The only thing missing from the trailer was Gus's Windex...but I'm confident that will make an appearance.

The reason for the excitement over this upcoming sequel stems from how good the first one was. We learned so many life lessons from "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," and it had that "my family is crazy" feel to it we all can relate too.

Here're a few life lessons and relatable moments to refresh your memory.

Grandparents hold onto the past.

That relative that reveals a little too much information at the dinner table.

That relative who doesn't always get your point.

And we all know moms run the world.

Always be proud of your heritage.

New concepts can be difficult to grasp...like being introduced to the concept of a bundt cake.

Our family might be a little crazy (and drive us a little crazy), but we love them no matter what.

Finally the most important lesson of them all: when it doubt, put some Windex on it.

"My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2" is coming to a theater near you March 25, 2016!

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.
