Woman Crush Wednesday: Felicity Smoak

I needed to do this. I did a post called "On Wednesdays We Wear Pink" On my other blog, and I chose Felicity as my first inspiration... because duh... and I'm going to do a Woman Crush Wednesday on her to. I think I'm going to keep this up for October and do a WCW and an On Wednesdays  We Wear Pink together... so that it'll be like feminist awesomeness. I started On Wednesdays We Wear Pink last October as a way to raise awareness and support for Breast Cancer... and I kind of want to coincide something inspirational about women in with that too because it's inspirational. I feel like October should be a second Women's History Month or something because its good to know about inspirational women while supporting a cause that is for inspirational women. You know? Okay, so that is that and Onto the Post!

Also I'm only done with Season 1 right now... so this is going to be very Season 1 specific. Lol. 

1) She didn't hesitate to help Oliver- Even before Felicity knew Oliver was The Hood, she didn't hesitate to help him look stuff up. She kind of knew that he was lying about the reasons why he was looking them up... and I think she was a little skeptical about him... but ultimately she trusted him and she helped him.

2) She's a good person that just wants to help people- This kind of goes along with the previous statement. She wasn't that hesitant to help Oliver... but she wasn't fully on board to help The Hood... or at least she wouldn't have been had it not been for Walter's kidnapping. Felicity just wanted to help find Walter because he was nice to her. That's it, all she wanted was to help the hood because the people that he was helping were good people. She didn't really want to be involved with the body count or anything like that... but she wanted to help people and she understood what Oliver was doing. She was quick to join him because she knew that he was a good person that was just helping people, and the City.

3) She changed Oliver- After Felicity joined, Oliver didn't really want to kill as many people. In the first episode of Season 2, he didn't kill anyone... and part of that is because Felicity thought he might have had some other options. Felicity mentioned that she didn't really care about the body count in that episode... but she changed him. He'll still totally kill someone if he has too... but he kind of knows his heroism isn't just about that. He always knew it was more than just vengeance, but she kind of changed him to be more than the vigilante. He's an actual hero partially because of her.

4) She's a female hacker- How many female hackers are on tv? Okay maybe a lot... I think Supernatural, CSI Cyber, and Scorpion I think all have them (again not sure... but I think so) ... alright. fair enough... but still I don't totally think there are many and Felicity Smoak is probably the best and its a pretty powerful thing.

5) She doesn't hide how she really feels- Part of Felicity's awkward, quirky charm is that she never really lies to anyone. She always tells Oliver he's hot and that she likes watching him work out and she just always tells the truth. It seems like she's thinking ahead of when she's talking... but either way, she does it her way and thats pretty cool.

Alrighty that is it. Stay tuned later, on my Beauty Blog I have hair, Makeup and Outfit inspired by Felicity and I may link that here after its posted... we'll see!

Byeeee!

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...

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...
