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!

Life Scribbles
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!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

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...
