All 7 Star Wars Episodes Ranked From Best to Worst

If you're a huge Star Wars fan like me, you have your favorite episode along with your least favorite, so I decided to share my ranking of the current 7 Star Wars episodes from the best to the worst.

1. Return of the Jedi

My personal favorite. Anakin was the jedi who returned, Luke and his group of rebels saved the galaxy, and this final scene? A real tear jerker. Plus who doesn't love watching the Emperor get thrown to his death.

2. The Empire Strikes Back

Luke finally found out that Darth Vader was his dad, Han gets frozen into carbonite, Lando makes his debut as well as Boba Fett and we get to see our favorite imperial walkers on Hoth.

3. A New Hope

Darth Vader really makes an entrance, Old Ben is back and it's the first Star Wars movie, come on. Plus the Death Star gets destroyed and we get to see Princess Leia's infamous classic look.

4. Revenge of the Sith

My favorite of the new movies, it gives a lot of information to help figure out many of the questions we have from the original trilogies, but it's not the best. Anakin force chokes Padme who later dies of a broken heart and Obi-Wan practically destroys his apprentice who is like a brother to him. All of the jedi are killed but 2, Yoda and Obi-Wan both go into hiding and yeah...not cool.

5. The Force Awakens

Personally, I was quite impressed with Episode VII as I saw it in theaters 4 times. However, Luke wasn't present nearly as much as we thought he'd be, and Han's death? Can't get over it. The classic characters seemed to have been overshadowed by the new ones and as a fan of the original trilogy, I didn't like that too much.

6. Attack of the Clones

Episode II was a let down in many ways, Anakin is slowly turning to the dark side while continuing his forbidden romance with Padme and his jealousy of Obi-Wan continues to thrive. Count Dooku gets away, many jedi are lost in the Battle of Geonosis and Darth Sidious is gaining more control over the galactic senate.

7. The Phantom Menace

I think all true Star Wars fans can agree that thus far, Episode I is the worst. We have an unnecessary hour of pod-racing and we lose Qui-Gon Jinn but the worst? JarJar Binks...not the best move, George Lucas.

Although I can't give my full and complete analysis of each movie, this gives you the idea. Share your Star Wars movie rankings! And May the Force be With You.

Why I Love Being Single (And You Should, Too)

Dedicated to February 14

Truman State University
24201
sex and the city
Warner Bros. Television

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.

15 Ridiculous Things College Made Me Do (Part Two)

When you are on your own and tired, things happen.

If you haven't read the first part of this, I would highly suggest to, specifically because the Public Service Announcement placed in the beginning of that article still applies. If you don't feel like reading part one, I will try to cover it quickly. Basically, long story short, I am a pretty boring person and lead a pretty ordinary life. Due to this, please do not expect for the things I consider ridiculous to be what others may deem it. I promise that each of these I have done with a complete sane, mildly bored, brain. With all of this being said, please enjoy the semi-absurd things I have been lead to do in the second semester of my freshman year at college.

College is supposed to be one of the best times of your life. However, it is also one of the toughest transitions to make. There is so much anticipation and excitement leading up to moving into college. It doesn’t truly hit you until move in day when your parents say their final goodbyes and you see their car drive away. You truly are on your own. I was blessed to meet my best friends within the first week of school. Your college friends are so important and here’s why:
