Weekly Wrap Up 5.9.16

Favorites 

Nick Jonas- Idk why I suddenly have a crush on Nick Jonas... well okay I kinda know. He reminds me a lot of Gabe Saporta. His singing kind of sounds like him... but also he's hot, and funny. He was good on Scream Queens. I love DNCE and his regular songs too... he just seems like a sweet guy. I was never really a Jonas Brothers fan... but I love Nick Jonas's songs. And he's super hot. And seems like he likes girls that are a little older... so call me. Lol. Okay scratch that... DNCE is Joe Jonas not Nick... lol. So I guess I'm attracted to 2 Jonas Brothers... but Nick Jonas is still my fave.

Hamilton Soundtrack- Back at it again with listening to Hamilton! This was kind of an accident, I plugged in my phone to my moms car, and then it played the hamilton soundtrack! So that was fun. My mom had fun listening to it for the first time... and I liked listening to it again. I saw a book about Aaron Burr at Barnes and Noble and I think I'm going to pick it up!

Snapchat- I've been into snapchat recently! I have fun with it! Maybe its just stupid little posts, but people tell me they like my posts and its fun!


Snippets from the week 
-Went shopping a few times this week. Didn't actually get anything... so success!
-Won a major award this week! That was fun. I liked all the stuffs I got!
-lots of starbucks... many fraps!
-Wedding related shopping.
- Dance classes
- Ate some yummy food
-Had a Mothers Day party... well my mom did.
-Got a Rehearsal Dinner dress... so I guess I got something. Lol.


TV Highlights 
Didn't have time! I watched 17 again though... that was funny! Ohhh and I saw Greys Anatomy... which was really sad and Scandal... which is awesome this season!

News and World Events 
The Met Gala was this week! Clare Danes wore a dress that lit up and made her look like a sparkly light up jellyfish princess! Beyonce wore some heavy eye makeup. Kerry Washington wore her hair down and natural I think and it was purple! Looked so pretty!

The Tony Nominations were announced and I think Hamilton is going to win almost every award its nominated for. It can't actually win every award because then there would be ties... although that could totally happen! I'm not really sure which one should win TBH! I'm really excited! I love anything with broadway performances! And I love the Hamilton Soundtrack, and I liked the Waitress soundtrack a lot too! Now I have to listen to Shuffle Along!

And they need to make Hamilton a movie, so that Lin Manuel Miranda can EGOT. Cause he's already got EGT. Lol.

The Kentucky Derby was this week. I like watching horse races... but they make me so sad. Idk.

It was also Drag Con, the Drag Queen Convention... which looked like a lot of fun! Drag queens combine all of my interests... so thats fun.

It was Teacher Appreciation Week and Mother's Day this week... well I guess technically Today is Mother's day... but still.



Thoughts 
Carpe Diem (within reason).


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...
