Scribbles About Music: Throwback Thursday Edition Sophomore Slump or Comeback of The Year by Fall Out Boy

I wasn't expecting to love this song hearing it now as much as I do... but the lyrics of this song are probably my favorite and of all of Fall Out Boys songs... I think these are the ones that stuck with me the most. "The best part of believe is the lie" "I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light." It's stuff that really matters and it sticks with you. "Take your tears, put them on ice." That's all good.

This doesn't give me the happy feeling the way that I think 7 minutes in heaven did... but this one I feel better. I'm like "Yeah, I still like Fall Out Boy and these lyrics still mean something to me." Which is cool. All these years later, I'm still on board with this song. I guess that's a good thing!

It is a good message though... singers lie to us. You can't really trust anyone other than yourself because people just like to tell you what you want to hear... cause that's just who they are that week... wait... wrong song! Lol. But... you know what I mean.

Also, William Beckett sings in this song and I'm quite a fan of The Academy Is as well! I'll have to do some scribbles about them too probably. Lol. I think that's cool cause I didn't know who he was when I first heard the song but now after being a fan for so long I'm like "Yes! This dude!" And that is really cool!

So that's a short little post, but this is a pretty short song! Next week I want to try to do another movie review... or I might be doing something else entirely... I have stuff planned for halloween... which seems crazy because I'm writing this August 22nd..but we'll see!

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...
