ALL UP IN THAT FORCE

We are now just a few days away from the premiere of The Force Awakens and Star Wars fans are surging out of the Dagobah System where they’ve been lost since 1983.

I'm an insane Star Wars fan. Probably it's because I watched them so many times with my dad as a kid that it just seeped into my neurons. Even before I was a fully formed toddler I'd been in a room when Star Wars was playing. It must be osmosis. I wanted to be Han Solo. I was in love with Chewie. I wanted to go on a big adventure for the good of all. I wanted an outfit. I wanted to fly a spaceship. And all of those things are still true.

Here I am as a child, already wearing R2D2 shirts. I now have 15.

Where I stand on a few key items, Han shot first, it's fine to kiss your sister in a friendly manner, AND THE SECOND THREE MOVIES don't count as Star Wars, i.e., there hasn't been a Star Wars movie since Return of the Jedi. 

I decided to do a video blog counting down the days to Star Wars. They are all under 40 seconds so it's a quick catch up.

Day 1: 

 

Day 2: 

 

Day 3:

 

Day 4:

 

I skipped Sunday because we all need a break from me. So here is today's, Monday December 14th, only a few days until I see Star Wars on Thursday the 17th (and again on the 18th)!

 

I would very much love it if you'd subscribe to youtube.com/LeahBonnema and follow along with me! Get some Force up in ya!
