13 Nights of Blogoween Day 3: Scribbles About Events: Camp Evans Base of Terror

This is a fun local Halloween event! I went last year and this year... and whenever the first year they started doing this was... and its improved a lot and it is probably the best haunted house I've been to... I like the ones in Six Flags a lot... but this one is pretty creepy in itself.

Camp Evans Base is a weird place in general. Here is the history of it all. Its a huge place, so its super creepy to just have a haunted house that massive... but it is really good. And I think they've even expanded how big it is. The first year I think it ended early but there was a haunted hay ride with it... now they just have the walk through, which is really cool. They have a lot of really cool decorations and a lot of people in costumes.

They sort of have everything in little sections. So you go in one section and its an asylum, one section dolls, one is a haunted Alice in Wonderland type of thing, a clown section... they separate everything pretty well too so that the transitions of themes make sense and seem kind of gradual. I always think that's really cool, because like at 6 Flags Fright Fest they have different houses for different things and this is just the one big trail so its interesting to see how they separate everything!

The one thing about this year was that they didn't have as much stuff as last year. There were some spaces that were kind of short and some that didn't have much stuff in it... but it was still really fun!

I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for something scary to do in New Jersey. Its a really good and scary place to go to. Its not too scary, there were some kids there that looked scared... I guess I would have been scared to go as a kid... but if they don't want to do the walk there's other fun stuff for kids to do. They have hot drinks and food, they played Ghostbusters (not the new one) outside and they had a magic show or something. I think it could be a family friendly event!

Hope this was helpful!
Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

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...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...
