50 Random Facts about me

I think I've done various versions of this before... but its a new year. Lets do one more! Heyyy I'm a poet and I didn't realize it... lol that was from a Monster's Inc game I played when I was little.

1) I don't like Cherry Pie. I kind of like cherries... I'm not a big fruit person but I love chocolate cherries and all sorts of cherry things... but cherry pies have a lot of weird textures that I don't love all together. The crust is crispy and then theres the gooey filling and then the squishy cherry. I always feel like I'm biting a toe and the blood is gushing out. I'm weird I know.

2) I find Olaf from frozen annoying. I don't really like Frozen because of that. I also don't like that they waisted a really good love song on a bad guy. I liked it when I saw it and I gave it an okay review on here... but I don't see the obsession. The movie wasn't great. No. Just no.

3) I can do this really weird thing with my pinky. I put it between my index finger and my thumb and fold my other knuckles around it and I wiggle it. Its weird. I know. Totally useless talent but its a fun party trick that no one else I know can do.

4) I can't drive! Neither can Tina Fey, so I think I'll turn out fine.

5) Actually I've read Bossypants and I'm pretty sure my life is exactly like Tina's life when she was my age. Cool.

6) I used to be able to do a basically spot on Ke$ha impression... but it gave me a sore throat so I no longer can do that.

7) I bought a shirt with Polar Bears on it today even though I didn't completely love it and I was buying several other clothes just cause it was $6 at Old Navy and I felt like it'd be pointless not to buy it... so I did that.

8) I just took an improv class. It was a fun class, but it wasn't like a class for fun, it was actually a class in my school that I signed up for and got a grade for... so there were some steaks.

9) I think Cool Ranch Doritos have the most sophisticated flavor of any snack food. You bite into it and your like "Okay this is a dorito. Its a Taco if that taco decided to be a chip" and then it surprises you with a ranch flavor and this yummy tanginess that is just excellent.

10) I was telling my friend that I was now going to compare all foods to cool ranch doritos and then I heard this rando girl telling her friend that her boyfriend didn't buy her doritos and he was taking advantage of her because of that. I 100% agree with that girl and wish her luck with all her future romantic relationships and things.

11) Whenever I hear a Gwen Stefani song, something terrible happens.

12) If I could choose one superpower, I would want to talk to animals. I decided this now.

13) I think I'm a lot like Jeff Winger on Community. I realize now that I'm super concerned with looking effortlessly cool.

14) I shopped today... I bought lots of stuff. Its a little excessive, thats why the Polar bear thing was an issue. You can read about it on my other blog scribbles about beauty tomorrow. Lol.

15) Pizza.

16) When I spelled Polar bear before... I thought I was going to spell Poehler bear because I love Amy Poehler and I talk about her more than I talk about Polar bears.

17) I asked for Lena Dunham's book for Christmas because I want to be a comedy writer and I respect that and I would feel bad and left out if I didn't read this book. I don't watch Girls though so thats a thing.

18) Why aren't phoenix's real animals? I feel like God or Scientists or Travolta's guy or whoever should make these already. I don't really want them to die and get reborn though. I just want cool magical birds with powers of fire. I think whoever makes birds should do that.

19) I'm very picky with the way I like my Christmas tree to be arranged.

20) Its really hard for me to talk about Gone Girl without telling people the ending... there is so much to this book and movie that you just need to read/watch it right now. Once you get to the middle, you will ignore all other responsibilities and just read.

22) I realize there is no number 21... but I'm cheating.

23) I like podcasts a lot. I don't think Adnan killed Hae... but I really have no idea. Neither does anyone else! Ugh! Also whenever I hear Cake Boss mentioned, I try to do Paul F. Tompkins impression of him. I also like other things? idk.

24) If you google my name it says I died in a plane crash. I didn't I was in the Newspaper the same day that this happened. I saw a fall out boy concert with my friends, so thats why that happened.

25) Ghost Rider with Nicholas Cage is probably one of my favorite movies. Its not in the top 20... but maybe the top 50.

26) I am also watching it right now and I see why its considered a bad movie... but I still find it very entertaining.

27) I think Adam Scott has an adorable face.

28) I like being the first to find out about new shows, music or movies. I knew about Lady Gaga before most people I know because I was in Europe and she was on tv there before she was on the charts over here (America).

29) I also get a little annoyed when things I like get super popular wayyy after I like them. I've been saying Parks and Rec and Arrested Development have been amazing for years... why all of a sudden. Especially because of Chris Pratt. I've been saying Pratt is funny for forever... yeah.

30) I may start live tweeting reruns of Walker Texas Ranger because its a funny show.

31) Right when I was typing Texas Ranger, on ghost rider they said the words Texas Ranger.

32) I'm not allergic to any foods.

33) I am allergic to rabbits and certain dog hair.

34) I really like the Princess Diaries Book Series, but I recently started reading the last book and Mia is just a little hard to be around. I love her and I think she's my favorite fictional character, but I just needed a bit of a break. She's very self destructive.

35) I also felt stupid as an adult saying that Princess Mia was my favorite fictional character as an adult for a while... but the Princess Diaries is a sophisticated book and I learned a lot from it.

36) Most of what I wear is from American Eagle.

37) I've been writing this for a few days... so I'm not watching Ghost Rider anymore.

38) I don't like people that don't like muppets. Or Charlie Brown for that matter. They probably don't know what comedy is since they didn't learn it as a child.

39) Loading Pez dispenser's is hard to me.

40) As is dispenser to spell because I spelled it like Spencer, aka my dogs name.

41) He's scratching at my chamber door now... I should check on him.

42) Twas a puppy and nothing more.

43) I like this Edgar Allan Poe thing happening right now.

44) I once did a report on Edgar Allan Poe and I spelled his name wrong throughout the report... I did badly.

45) I wrote this a few days ago, so I don't quite remember everything I have written here, so I'm afraid of repeating myself.

46) I really think Paul F. Tompkins version of Cake Boss, Gary Marshall, Len Wiseman and Andrew Llyod Webber are probably what they're really like in real life. Whenever I hear about Cake Boss, I like to say Cake Boss right after.

47) I'm hungry.

48) I need to get dressed.

49) I'm excited to get this done so that I can get food.

50) This is really the 49th fact. Look back to #21 you'll see!

Byee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...
