Weekly Wrap Up 9.25.16



Favorites 
Scream Queens- I didn't love the premiere of season 2 quite as much as I loved Season 1... but this is still a great show and possibly my favorite on TV currently. So yeah... it was really really good!

The Good Place- This is my favorite show this year so far! If you like Parks and Rec or Brooklyn 99... You might like this! Same writers I believe. And it wasn't really what I expected at all. There's a lot more plot to it than it seemed from the commercials. It was funny though because in the comments someone said "This is just like the show Selfie" which made me laugh because really Selfie was based off of Pygmalion. I don't think they were really going for a total Pygmalion theme the way that Selfie was... and this is much more creative than Selfie. Its a good spin on that type of story... and I'll have another review on that soon!

Justin Scarred- Justin Scarred is a vlogger that does a lot of Disney vlogs and shows interesting things from around the world... and I've been really into his channel lately. He does the best videos on the Disney Parks, in my opinion. He's funny and he gets beautiful shots of everything and his videos are just a lot of fun.

Salted Caramel Mocha- Haven't had this in years... I had it this week and at first it kinda made me sick... but it was overall delicious!

I did this already... 

TV Highlights 
This year, I decided to watch ALL the tv show premieres for the blog... so keep a look out for reviews of the fall schedules for NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox... and maybe I'll do the CW later on. So I've watched a lot of TV This week! 

The Good Place really surprised me... it was really clever and very good. This is Us... also surprised me. I didn't think I'd like it at all... the twist wasn't really a twist... but I liked it a lot anyway... and I just really liked that one. Speechless was pretty good. Kevin Can Wait wasn't the worst thing ever. I think the shows this year look promising. 

I also started watching Lucifer because I wanted to see that from the beginning before doing a review on it... I like that a lot. I watched New Girl and that was really good... again idk why I just stopped watching it, but I'll start again. The Goldbergs was funny. The other ABC shows were okay... The Big Bang Theory was okay.

I watched Supernatural... finished up The Office... there was a lot to watch and I did watch a lot. 

Noteworthy Snacks 

Klondike Bar Mrs. Fields cookie sandwiches and Klondike Bar Oreo sandwiches. I'm just a fan of an Ice Cream sandwich and these are really good.

The Starbucks Salted Caramel Mocha. I didn't have this since I was in college because I had one one time with a salted caramel brownie and it was too much and I quickly had to leave one class to go to another class... and it was just wayyyy too much! And I got a Venti and that was also wayyyy too much... but I got a grande today and that was just right. Its not too rich, not too sweet. Just the right amount of flavor and I just like it a lot! It isn't something I can drink quickly and I don't think I would like it cold at all... but I did really love it this week!

News and World Events 
Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt! Jolie has requested physical custody of the couples 6 kids and Pitt would have visitation rights. Apparently Pitt has anger issues, which led to the split... very sad day. I just started to kind of like them as a couple. 

Jim Carey is involved in a wrongful death lawsuit over the suicide of his on again off again girlfriend.  This is a messy one... It don't really know what to think of it. He did a lot wrong, I don't think he really intended this happening... but he creeps me out a lot now and its scary that he's involved in all of this and it is hard to think of. I think it would be kind of hard to see his movies now to be honest. Its sad. 




Thoughts 
Do something? I'm bad. I had a good one but I'm not feeling that inspirational. 

Clickables 
I already linked to Justin Scarred's youtube page... I'm just kind of watching all the TV now... so yeah. 

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

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
