Weekly Wrap Up- 6.19.16



Favorites 
Grace and Frankie- Still a favorite! I love this show... its really funny, I'm almost done and I'll have a review soon and then I'll watch Orange is The New Black... but this is good! I like it a lot! 

Last Year was Complicated- The new Nick Jonas CD is really great! I'll have a review on that sometime soon also... but I liked it. Even though all his songs kinda sound the same, I think there's a purpose for that. He's telling a story. Lol.

Watching Movies- Watching movies is just fun. I haven't done that in a little while, so I watched Pitch Perfect 2 and My Big Fat Greek Wedding when I was cleaning my room. I bought Deadpool really cheap at Target, so I think I'll watch that when I finish cleaning... so yeah. That's fun! 

Snippets from the week 
-Monday was my moms bday, so we went out to lunch and dinner. It was nice. We went out a lot this week too... we went out friday and yesterday... so that was good. And my grandmother took us to lunch one day this week too... so that was nice!
-I didn't do much Wednesday. On Thursday I got a lot of cleaning done in my room and that was when I watched Pitch Perfect 2 and My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
-I also went to Target and out for Ice Cream on Thursday.

TV Highlights 
Grace and Frankie... Uncle Buck, which I'll have a review of soon... and I think thats it. Other than the movies I mentioned.

Noteworthy Snacks 
Blueberry oreos... review soon lol. Pink Drink. I went to a place called Coney Waffle and got a waffle ice cream. That was good. And Cheese fries from Windmill... yum. 

News and World Events 
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis announced they are expecting a 2nd baby. 

Thats all I feel like mentioning. The news this week sucked and this is a happy blog... so yeah. Just be nice to people. Do a random act of kindness for a stranger or something nice for someone. I think a lot of people get into ruts when the news is so horrible and the kindness of a stranger will show you that the world is a better place than you think.

Ohh but I do want to mention some not so great news just because I haven't heard it talked about on the news very much. Alejandro "Jano" Fuentes was shot and killed in Chicago this week. A man ordered him to get out of his car, and shot him. Fuentes was 45. This was just a week after the tragic death of Christina Grimmie.

On CBS's Sunday Morning it mentioned that since the attack in Orlando last week... there have been 207 gun-related deaths in the United States... but you know, the big problem in America is Microbeads... 


Thoughts 
I kind of went over this already, but just be kind to people. You never know whats going on. There have been a lot of people reminding me of that this week in particular. Just people I know just from Instagram or Periscope have been so kind to me this week... its just been a good week of that. So that's what I'd like to mention as my little advice of the week. 

Bye! Hope this made you smile at least! Have a happy Father's Day! Hope everyone has a nice day!

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...
