Weekly Wrap Up: 11/21/15

Alrighty lets just get right into it!

Favorites 

Egg Nog Latte- I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of favorites this week. The Egg Nog Latte is a big one. This I feel like they have a little later than the other holiday lattes... but its my favorite. This year I think it's even better than previous years. Its so christmasy and good and delicious. I love it.

Comedy Bang Bang- I've been behind on this podcast... but I just started listening to it again and it is amazing. It's really funny and just a fun thing to listen to while cleaning your room or anything. The show actually had Eagles of Death Metal on a recent episode. That is the band that's concert hall was targeted during the attacks in Paris, killing 90 people. Which is very sad, this podcast was obviously before that happened, it was an episode early in October, but you can tell they are good natured and easy to get along with guys. They were funny and fun to listen to. They didn't perform on the show at all, but they seemed like they were funny and even though they weren't comedians they did a good job on the podcast.

Sephora Favorites Dry Shampoo set- Idk what the name of this was... I think it was the style extender set or something. Anyway its a set with a bunch of different Dry Shampoos, I believe 8 are in the box. I've already tried half of them and I really like them! My favorite so far is from a brand called Amika... but these are all things I'd repurchase I think. Not a bad value set.

What I watched 
Jane the Virgin and Crazy Ex Girlfriend were great. I'm excited for the black friday episode of Jane The Virgin which is set entirely in Target because Jane the Virgin is an hour long Target Commercial. Also I think I'm team Rafael again... idk I just don't want him to end up alone. I'm fine with Michael ending up alone... but Raf is just so lovable! I love him! I'm sure I'll be team Michael again soon... but right now Team Rafael!

I'm also team Greg for Crazy Ex Girlfriend. I like Greg and they have great chemistry. I feel the way Rebecca does about Josh though. I got all giddy when he said he was attracted to her. I like her a lot. Lol.

American Horror Story was good! I thought it was different and I like The Countess, she is one of my favorites!

TGIT was good!  Not great... but good. How To Get Away With Murder is slightly unbelievable at this point... by a lot... but its still fun to watch. And Grey's was good. Penny is THE WORST! She wasn't in this episode very much but she was the worst in it. Scandal was good too. Scandal I like... but its probably my least favorite of the 3 shows. When its good its really good... but sometimes its just meh. I like the topical current events episodes... but sometimes I get a little bored with them. Its a weird relationship.

Shark tank I kind of watched. People had some dumb stuff, but I liked the update on the Mensch on The Bench! I thought that was cool, really nice idea.

Highlights 
I feel like I mostly just ate pizza this week... yeah 3 times... lol probably not great... but... ya know.

I went shopping on Wednesday. That was fun. And Saturday the first 500 people to go to my mall got a tote bag with a gift card in it... so thats cool. This hasn't happened yet, I'm writing this on Friday... but Hopefully I got the $500 gift card and I'll let you know! Lol. Probably not. I probably got $5... but its still really nice that the mall is doing that right? I didn't get the 500 but I did get $40! I woulda been happy with $5! No complaints! I went to sephora and got a holiday Gift Set from Stila!

I am doing something different on my other blog for Christmas... so I've been pretty focused on that. and... yeah. Just chill in!

And I'm in a food coma right now and still have yet to watch one of the American Horror Story Episodes for my Re-watch... so that will be up in a little bit. Maybe tomorrow. I haven't been feeling like posting here as much... just I have something big going on on my other blog for December and this I feel like I'm neglecting, but I still want to put fun, funny and thoughtful posts... so maybe I'll write more quick, personal posts instead of all reviews and things like that. That's a lot easier and it makes more sense for this blog being about life... but I'm also a private person... so I don't love revealing my whole life... and there are lots of bits and pieces of my life here. I am obsessed with AHS, I do eat a lot and idk.

I've been in kind of a good mood lately too. So that's always a good thing.

Byeee!

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...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

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...
