Superbowl Smackdown! Superbowl 51

Hamilton wrote the other 51!!! Jk... that's just what I think of when I hear the word 51 now.

This didn't seem like it would be the most exciting Super Bowl ever. It was the Falcons second Super Bowl ever and they've never won... so it seemed that this would be kind of a cased closed, easy win for the Patriots... who have won Superbowls several times before.

As it turns out... the Falcons kind of kicked ass in the game up until around the 3rd quarter. It seemed impossible for the Patriots to win after that... but The Patriots were able to tie in the 4th Quarter and then won when the game went into overtime in the First time in Superbowl History!!!!!

But now to the fun part... What'd I eat? Lol. I don't know if I've done this in the past Superbowl Smackdown's in previous years... but I thought I'd do it this year. We always have the same things for the most part. Chli in sort of a "do it yourself" type of way. We have all sorts of taco bowls and toppings and things for the chili. And we have a sandwich platter from a really good deli near us... we had chips and dip, cheetos... Doritos I think... and Chicken Wings. Hot wings and a Honey Barbecue Chicken. Super good... until my dog stole one of the Honey Barbecue Wings and I put the dog germs one down with the other ones... which was dumb lol. We had finished eating the wings by then... but still. And for dessert we had a trifle that my mom's friend made and ice cream cake and crumb cake... I just had the Trifle... but it was all really great! I was so full from all the other food!

I didn't pay much attention to the commercials because of the party... but I did see a few before and after the game itself. The Melissa McCarthy Commercial was really great. There was one commercial that was about a girl driving a car that I think I'm going to have to do a whole post on because it sounded empowering... so expect that on Scribbles About Feminism soon. The Budwiser commercial about immigration was really good and powerful. I liked the ones with the celebrity yearbook photos... although that didn't really sound like Steve Carell. There was one with a dog for Budwiser that was really really stupid. I thought most of them were pretty good, none super funny and memorable... but I liked them a lot! They were all good!

And after the show... the new 24 series 24: Legacy. I didn't watch it, I saw a little bit of it tonight though and it sounded great! I'm going to watch it for sure!

Alright... just finished Jane The Virgin tonight... omg... reaction tomorrow! Was not expecting that!

Byeee!

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...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
