Weekly Wrap Up: 3/20/16


Favorites 
Big Love- This has been mentioned before... but season 2 is wayyy better than season 1. Season 1 wasn't bad... but there were a lot of storylines they just kind of gave up on and never mentioned again. Season 2 hasn't been like that and I'm almost done with it.

Instagram- I've been having some fun with Instagram! I created another account called Shannonsreviews and I like it a lot.

Coach Outlets- I really like the Coach Outlets. They had 50% off this week. I may or may not have gotten 2 bags in 2 days... lol.

Highlights 
Sunday and Tuesday I went to the fancy mall. Friday and Saturday I got coach bags at the outlets... oops.

Noteworthy Snacks 
I tried an Irish Cream Nut Chiller from Gloria Jeans and I really liked it!

I tried the Superman Cereal and it was awesome! I may do another scribbles about food... if I haven't already. There are so many Scribbles About Food this month its not even funny... I'm sorry lol.

I had a frog cupcake from The Macaroon Shop. They have these every St. Patrick's day and they are awesome and adorable!

And I had Caramel Drizzle K Cups for the first time in a long time... that's pretty awesome. And speaking of coffee, the Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce Latte... which I haven't had in a very long time and that was really good! 

I had a lot of great food at the Redbank Wedding Walk... which I'll get to sometime in a Bridesmaid Diaries. 

And I had Mac and Cheese. Nothin like Mac and Cheese. 

TV Highlights 
Anyone else laugh hysterically at the end of How To Get Away With Murder? Wes is so wrong place, wrong time. I thought it ended pretty well... this season SUCKED!

I watched the repeat of Crazy Ex Girlfriend. I love that episode.

Greys Anatomy and Scandal I didn't watch too much... but yeah. They were on.

And Big Love, which has gotten better in Season 2.

News 

There were rumors of a disappearance of fitness instructor and TV Personality Richard Simmons because he has not been seen publicly since his appearance at a parade 3 years ago, I believe it was said and he just spoke out and said he is okay. He did not gain weight, which was one rumor. He recently had knee surgery and hasn't been leaving his house much since then. He's been recovering. If you want to hear a funny story that may make you sympathize with Richard Simmons more... or less... listen to this little excerpt from the Skalar Brothers Comedy Special "What Are We Talking About" right here. Or just watch the full thing on Netflix... I think I reviewed it years ago and its really good.

World Events 
This Monday was Pi Day. 3.14... whig is the first 3 digits in Pi.

Miami had a latinamerican festival it looks like on snapchat? It said one of the biggest latinamerican festivals in the world. It looked like a lot of fun, there was a lot of music and dancing... and it was just cool.

Spring Break was this week.

I didn't watch many snap stories this week... so idk what happened. Lol.


Thoughts 
Edit: Forgot to post thoughts! I know I had a good one this week... I forget... I've had a big day. I'll remember it eventually...

Okay I remembered! I read the comments on just regular articles this week... and everyone is so negative in them. And you know what... if they wrote the article on the opposite perspective... people would be angry about that too.

If I said Red was the best color people would be like "woah... that's a bold statement, Shannon. You can't say Red is the best color. What about green? Or Blue, or purple?" And then if I said Purple was the best people would be like "wow, could you pick more of a generic color than purple? Let me get you some pumpkin spice for your uggs, basic bitch!" And if I was like "Okay blue?" People would be like "meh. Everyone's favorite color is blue. Give us something new... something less boring."

So... no one will ever be happy. Just be you, and if people don't like them... at least you like yourself. And even if you don't like yourself... you should. You're cool.

Byeee!
-Shannon

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...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
