2014 Resolutions/Goals

So I'm not a super "New Years Resolutions" type of person... but right now I'm kind of growing up and I feel like I need a set of goals and I'll feel better once I accomplish them.

First off I'm graduating in May... thats a resolution. I guess its kind of a regular resolution, something I know will be accomplished, but still thats like an automatic check off of my list and I think I need that.

I also need a job and I'm hoping to get one in my field. I would love to get a job writing something. I know its hard, I know English Majors never get jobs unless they go into teaching... I know. But I'm not a teacher, I'm a writer and I think I can write. I don't know how, or where. If you need a writer for some reason, I'm here but yeah. I need a job of some sort.

I have a book idea that I'm working on too. I haven't started writing it yet, but its going to be really funny and cute and just a nice read. Its holiday themed, so that is something. Idk what the publishing will be like or anything, but I want to have it written at least by next Christmas, if not before. I don't want to rush it or anything.

And I want to loose some weight and start eating better. I'm going to try not to snack at all during the week. I'm going to cut back on soda, which I say all the time but I'm really going to do it this year. I'm gonna go to the gym with my dad. I'm going to look better around graduation.

And for right now, I'm going to keep up with this blog because I like it. I like posting something every day and writing something every day... but that isn't really my goal for this year. I feel like having it as my goal last year made me stress a little more over posting and making sure things were out there... and this year I just want to blog because I want to blog and I feel like I'll do it way more that way. Plus I feel like I'm being more honest and I'm just taking things in a different direction right now. So who knows, I may post every day, I may post like 3 times a week... but I will try to have as much as I can here.

Byee! Hope you are having a good 2015!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
