So I built myself a mini droid of my own, a cake pop.

But then again, it’s like a functioning mini droid. I think I would rather put the money towards a new pair of shoes. But then what would I do with it? It would probably sit there collecting dust or I could make Bear chase it around. When I saw that they released a BB-8 droid, I was very tempted to buy it. At first, I thought it was a head rolling on a soccer ball, but it’s not. But what caught my eye the most was the glimpse of the new droid, BB-8. I swear I got goosebumps the first time I saw the trailer. So you can imagine how excited I am for the next installment to the Star Wars Series. If you haven’t, you might want to check out a couple of parties I’ve thrown ( here and here). If you’ve been a reader of my blog, you would know that I’m kind of a Star Wars fan.
