The Force is {semi} Strong With This One

So I’ve got some news for you guys.

I have had some changes in my life since we last spoke. Not only have I transferred from my previous work location, but I have already started at my new work location!

Ladies and gentleman, I have transferred to Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge. Now I know what you’re thinking. “Jazmyn, you know absolutely nothing about Star Wars. Why did you even want to apply?”

And you would be right!

Before a month ago, I had seen Episodes 4, 5, and 6. That was it. And I can promise you that I couldn’t tell you a single thing that happened in those movies other than most (not even all) people’s names and Leia and that gold bikini scene (because honestly body goals).

Since I got hired to transfer, I have made it my sole duty to become more knowledgable in all things Star Wars. And I’m doing a pretty darn good job!

My roommate and I have both made it through all of the originals and the prequels and I can definitely see both sides of the spectrum: “The prequels are better” & “The originals are better”.

I honestly don’t have a favorite character, which is odd considering I usually love all of the bad characters. As much as I’d love to be a fan of any character who is dope enough to have James Earl Jones voicing them, Vader just never really did anything for me.

That being said, Jabba was really cool and I am personally a little excited to find out who this Kylo-Ren character is.

Now I know everyone that has some type of Star Wars experience is probably rolling their eyes right now at my knowledge, and I don’t even blame you.

But, here’s the good thing about Disney. You don’t need to be an expert about any Disney-ish topic to work here!

(Let’s be honest; if this were a rule, I would’ve been fired a long time ago)

So that’s the great thing. Even though I am currently getting ready to start The Force Awakens (spoiler alert: my old boss already ruined the ending for me but I’m not bitter about that at all. NOT BITTER), there’s no requirement that I need to be a Star Wars expert to be here.

And that’s great! Because I most certainly am not. To be honest, the only thing that I can work at without any doubt of being completely knowledgable all of the information is either FRIENDS, the Lion King, or It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

So, that’s it, folks!

Galaxy’s Edge is clearly not open yet, but in a little over a month, it definitely will be and the floodgates will be open!

So everyone should prepare themselves! Star Wars has itself a new fan now.

(But I’ll watch anything where I can stare at Hayden Christensen all day long)
