Weekly Wrap Up 2.5.17


Favorites 

The Santa Clarita Diet- I finished this season the day it came out. It's not something I'm like "Ohhh should I watch that again?" Right now... but I did really enjoy it. I'll have a full review on Wednesday, that's going to have some mild spoilers maybe... but it's good! Take my word for it, if you like Zombies, this is a good one!

A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Austere Academy- This is a really funny book. I like the characters in it a lot, this is the first book I've read from the series in 13 years probably... so it's exciting to re-read it. I'm excited to see what the show does with this. It's really good!

Putting stuff on my wall- I was having trouble organizing my room and then I was like "Hey, just put it on the wall!" And now it's pinterest AF. Lol.

TV Highlights 

Bingewatched Jane The Virgin on Monday... it was really good! I really really like this season! 

I also bingewatched Full Frontal with Samantha Bee. I really like her show. She is very investigative for a comedy show... and I just think she does a great job. I love her and the show is great! 

The Santa Clarita Diet. Powerless. Superstore. Crazy Ex Girlfriend Finale... all good stuff! 


Noteworthy Snacks 
KFC and Pizza Rolls... ugh so bad. Lol. Ohhh and I started Microwaving tostino chips just a little bit... pretty yummy!

Music
The Hamilton Mixtape this week... specifically I'm going to say the song Vally Forge because I like Lin playing George Washington and Alexander.

I also like the Crazy Ex Girlfriend soundtrack... just listened to West Covina from the pilot. Good song!

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...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
