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!

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...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
