11 Reasons to Love Actress Saoirse Ronan

You might have heard the name Soairse Ronan from this year's list of Oscar nominees, but did you know that she's actually the most perfect human being around? Bet you didn't, but that's okay because we're here to show you just what makes her so fabulous.

1. She's an amazing, accomplished actress.

Ronan began acting in 2003, and starred alongside Kiera Knightly in the 2007 film Atonement. Since then, she’s landed a great deal of big roles, including the movies The Lovely Bones, The Host, and The Grand Budapest Hotel. Now, she is nominated for Best Actress in the 88th Academy Awards for her role of Eilis in Brooklyn, a huge feat for a 21-year-old actress.

2. Despite her fame, she remains humble.

In one famous quote, she states, “I don’t mind doing the whole red carpet thing when I have to when it comes to publicizing a movie. But besides that, I don’t like those kinds of things at all. Celebrity status is not really something that appeals to me.”

3. She loves her mom.


This gal knows where her real priorities lie. ::awwwww::

4. She chooses her roles carefully.

The end result of this is a filmography of exemplary characters worthy of her acting genius. Says Ronan, “I think it’s important to wait for the right role. It’s hard to have that balance between steady work, if you’re lucky enough to have it, and waiting for the right stuff to come along.” But it's totally worth it waiting for the right films that she can really be proud of.

5. She has the most beautiful eyes on this planet.


Or any other, for that matter. Anyone else, like, super jealous?

6. She’s all for the breaking of gender stereotypes.

“There are very stereotypical roles out there for women but I think it is starting to change with things like Girls and SNL as women are such a huge part of that force. I think there’s so many of us that we need to make a change and push for more interesting female roles.”

But that's none of my business…

7. She’s basically a rap goddess.

Maybe one day she'll drop a hit single, but for now she'll be sticking with goofy covers. How can you not love this gal?

8. She’s very patient with the constant mispronunciations of her name.

All you unusual-namers out there will know how hard it is to smile and keep making the same corrections over and over again, but she does so gracefully.

9. She’s drop-dead gorgeous and she knows how to dress cute and classy.

I know it, you know it, even Eddy Redmayne knows it.

10. She's got some solid life goals.

Same, Saoirse, same.

11. She gets scared for big scenes and interviews.

We all have our moments of extreme nervousness, even actors. After all, the best celebrities are the ones who are #relatable, am I right?

Basically, the world better be ready for the awesomeness that is Saoirse Ronan, because this girl isn't going anywhere.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
