Scribbles About Music: Throwback Thursday Edition: Nobody Puts Baby In The Corner

Alright! Here we go! This one is my favorite song from From Under The Cork Tree... Possibly one of my favorites from Fall Out Boy...

And honestly... listening to it right now, I don't love it the way I did before. I mean I still think its really clever written and it still probably is my favorite... but I don't feel like a kid listening to it, I just feel like "This was the best song by Fall Out Boy... back in the day." I think its still my favorite, but if I were to have to choose between this or one of their newer songs on the radio... I'd pick one of the newer songs!

It's kind of a bittersweet feeling. Its really sad to type out that this song was a little bit of a let down... but at the same time... I know its not. I'm happy that I like their newer songs more, not because new is better... but Fall Out Boy is older now and I am too.

What I do really miss about their older songs is that they all sound different... now all the new songs by Fall Out Boy sound the same to me... and that's a little sad. It's like the same type of song but with a different word.
"We're irresistible, We are immortals."

But I still feel like that's what I should be listening to now and this is what I should have listened to in High School.

So is it still my favorite song from them? Yes, I think so... but I just don't appreciate it the same way I did back then and I'm happy that I like their new songs so much.

So... yeah. That's about it... this almost makes me want to stop the Throwback Thursday Scribbles About Music... but its all good. I need to do more of it and keep going. Lol.

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...
