Scribbles About Music: Shuffle Itunes and Review the first 7 songs

So here's a new idea that I'm doing now... I'm going to listen to the first 5 songs that shuffle on my apple music and let you know how they are... Alright!

1) Best of Wives and Best of Women from Hamilton Soundtrack- This is such a short song that I'll do the first 6 songs... I like this song a lot because it shows that Alexander and his wife are back together on good terms and it says a lot about their relationships and the situation Alexander is in with Burr in a quick 30 second song. The Line "Best of Wives and Best of Women" was in Alexander's letter to Eliza that he wrote before the duel to I think... it was definitely found in one of the letters he wrote to her... and I think its important that they included it in the play.

2) What Do You Mean by Justin Bieber- This is the reason for my Apple Music... I was too embarrassed to actually commit to this Bieber album... but I wanted it on my phone. I didn't actually like this one at first, but I grew to kind of love it. I like this Bieber Renaissance... and this song is the start of it... so its okay. Not my favorite... but I'll sing along and dance to it. And actually keep it on when its on the radio.

I still don't know why she's running out of time... is she dying?

3) Going Commando from The Deadpool Soundtrack- ... Maybe I should do 7 songs now because this isn't an actual song song... lol. I loved the music in Deadpool, and specifically I loved the Deadpool Rap... but I like listening to music with no lyrics because it makes me feel important and its good to listen to while writing and stuff... so if I were going to write something action-related, I'd listen to the deadpool soundtrack. If I wanted to write a horror story... maybe American Horror story... and that makes sense right? Lol. This isn't the best song on the soundtrack probably... but it is very action-y and if you listen to it at the gym... you'll feel cool. I like it.

4) Flowers in Your Hair by The Lumineers- I loved the Lumineers a while ago and I just re-downloaded the album because I love it so much. This song is the first song on the album I think and it is amazing. Again a short song... but longer than 30 Seconds... so I'm not adding another song. Lol. This is such a cute song... it makes me happy listening to it. I just like it. This it the kind of stuff you listen to when your in love and it just makes everything better.

5) The Black Death from Something Rotten- This is funny... another short song... I feel like this didn't shuffle that well... this is one of the funniest songs just listening to it with no context. In the play it was so funny too... I loved Something Rotten, totally my favorite musical I'd say... Its great.

6) Hood Politics by Kenderick Lamar- I couldn't really hear all the words he was saying and I got a little distracted by an article on celebrities that are my height and shorter... but this was a good song. I liked the sound of it and everything... lyrics are explicit... but Kenderick Lamar is pretty amazing.

7) Blackstar by David Bowie- This is a music video too... so I'm going to watch that. I like the song. Very different... even in his last days, he was making music that was different and groundbreaking and this video was absolutely beautiful... as is the song. I'm not 100% sure what it all means, what story its telling or anything... but the opening of the song kind of sounds like an old Bowie song that is skipping and its just a very dark song and a dark video... and a lot of it just sounds like noise but when you hear Bowie sing... its magical. He's amazing. My absolute favorite singer of all time... and the man can do no wrong.

Byeee!

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

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
