Orange Is The New Black Obsession Blog Post

I feel like I need to post something about my obsession with Orange is The New Black before season 2 comes out because... I am obsessed!

So if you haven't watched it yet you should because it is perfect! It's about a woman named Piper who is basically a nice blonde lady with a past. She's engaged to a normal guy played to absolute perfection by Jason Biggs, and suddenly one day she is arrested for a crime that she committed years earlier. The crime was that she was smuggling drugs and she did it for an ex-girlfriend, also played to perfection by That 70's Show's Laura Prepon. Jason Biggs proposes to her, she goes to prison and has many adventures including insulting the chef, getting stalked by "Crazy Eyes" who thinks she's her prison wife, seeing a chicken and eventually starting a life-threatening fight with a fellow inmate who happens to be a jesus-lover.

One of the best things about this show is the supporting cast. There isn't one character that I find boring and there are characters I don't like, but they are amazing villains. Pennsatucky is sooo annoying but she is hilarious and sad all at the same time. When they showed her back story, its almost sad but it more importantly shows why she's so terrible and makes her twice as terrible... and I'm sure there are people like her in real life- which is just scary. I also think Heely is absolutely terrible, he's the counselor that's like a lesbian witch hunter and he's in love with Piper at firs it seems, but then at the end he is a true asshole. And then there's pornstache and all the other horrible people on the show... its just great lol.

And there are also great characters like Red and Crazy Eyes and Nikki and Daya and the guard... which is a story I cannot wait for! It's all good. And it shows stories of how they got to prison and what they were like before prison. It's just all really good, but it doesn't overshadow Piper and her storyline. Piper is somewhat annoying, but she's a character that is interesting and easy to relate to. She's a great central character, it's easy to get hooked on. I watched the first season in like a week, I'll probably finish it a second time this week. I'm watching the second season with my friends in one day... we won't talk at all throughout any of it... it's just all good!

Byeee!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
