Scribble about life: 1/9/14 1:30 AM

Sooo... I thought I would just literally scribble about life every once and a while and not post anything until a much later date. I'm a senior in college, and I know every once and a while, I'm going to have too much work to do to really want to post something real, so I'll post these and it'll be like taking a trip back in the past when I publish it...

Right now it's like taking a trip into the future... I'm posting this at the very beginning of a big year for me. I'm about to start my last semester of school ever right now and I'm nervous of what's going to happen after that. Will I have a job? Probably, I'm probably going to stick with the job I have now until I get to become the next Tina Fey. Will I be the next Tina Fey by the time this is posted? Who knows, probably not quite yet... but I believe in myself and I don't think I'm that far off. Also more related to the actual blog- how many people will actually read this by the time I post this? Right now my blogs have not been getting many pageviews. I have about 650-ish pageviews and the blog that has been viewed the most is a review I did on The Carrie Diaries... which was like 14 or 15 views maybe... this is not as popular of a blog as I'd like it to be. I mean it doesn't really matter to me if this gets that many pageviews or not, but you know... I post every day... someone is bound to read this blog at some point right? I should post this on tumblr cause I had followers there and I kind of abandoned that for this blog...

Anyhoo today- well technically yesterday right now I had a fun day with my mom. We went out to lunch at this place called The Noodles Company- which was pretty bad, but had reasonably priced pad thai... so I feel like I'll end up back there. It was pretty flavorless though. It just opened up, maybe it's gotten better by the time this is published! One can hope

After that we saw Anchorman 2 which was really funny. I didn't like it as much as the first one, my mom liked it more. I actually just finished writing a review on that... again this will be published much later so I'll link it at some point because I haven't even published that yet...

Also it has been freezing cold this week, it's supposed to get up to the 40's today! That's incredibly warm considering Tuesday was like 13 degrees at its highest! Soon it'll be in the high 50s and we'll be bustin out the shorts... cause thats how NJ weather is lol.

Anyway I hope this look into the past was entertaining. I will probably write some more of these whenever I have a particular good or bad day and want to just write a diary-type thing. Hopefully I'll remember to publish this one first, as this is the first time I am doing this and don't know how many blogs I'll have by the time this one is published. Hopefully a lot!

So yeah, thats it I'm about to go to bed now, but I will see you all in the near-but-not-immediate- future! Byeeeee!

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

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...

Scribbles about Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
