Throwback Thursday: Tenchi Muyo

So this was kinda cool. When I was in 3rd or 4th grade there was this really cool show on Cartoon Network called Tenchi Muyo. And it was animae, but it wasn't overly violent or anything... it was just a cool action-packed tv show that was sort of like a cartoon soap opera... but also sort of with superhero type of stuff.

I didn't remember much about it other than it was a cute guy that lived in a house with a bunch of women that all liked him. Thats me describing it as a kid... lol. And there were characters with blue hair and a scientist with pink hair and it was really funny and really cool. But they just aired the same episodes over and over again and never really continued with the show. So that was upsetting.

I just watched the first episode so far... so idk if that's really what its about or not... lol. But the first episode was very action-packed but also funny and cool.

What I sort of appreciate about it is the way the story is told. It kind of follows all the rules of tv writing... but its also very short and its a cartoon and it does it in a way that doesn't make it long, or boring... and there's a lot of suspense.

It is a children's show though... so I didn't really feel that hooked on it to watch the second episode right away. Its good... but its not breaking bad or anything... its a kids show. So... I want to finish the series... but its not really a priority... but I like it.

Was it as good as I remembered... not really... but not all the characters are there... so I feel like its hard to judge from this one episode. I liked it but its not something I'm totally rushing to finish... so yeah. It was good... but it wasn't this truly amazing thing I remembered. It wasn't a total fail either. When I saw Dinosaur... that was a big fail... but this was not a complete fail.

So... yeah. Slightly depressing Throwback Thursday... but I still am happy I re-discovered this show I liked a lot as a kid... and I think I'll watch some more... it seems cool.

Byeee!

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...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
