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 delicious…but I needed to lay down afterword… so yeah. 

That’s pretty much it… doesn’t take much to make me happy… just some starbucks and some ice cream. Lol. 

Monday 7.24.17 

Today was kind of good and kind of hard… I’m probably going to be vague of anything bad that’s going on because… that’s not really something I like talking about… so we’re going to kind of gloss over it for a bit… I can’t really say “everything is fine” things are different now…so that’s all I can really say I guess? 

In other good news, my niece started CRACKING UP at my mom when she was doing a Donald Duck voice… it was really cute. At first she thought it was the dog- but then when she found out it was her grandma it was really cute. 

So… that’s about it I think. I ate a bagel and some chicken… I don’t think anything else was really memorable about it… idk. I watched some youtube videos. 

Tuesday 7.25.17 

Tuesday was a tougher day. I mentioned in my post yesterday that there was a loss in my family. That’s all I really have to say… it was a sad day with some moments of comfort from my family and friends. And honestly… that’s kind of how Wednesday, Thursday and friday were also… I don’t really have much more to say for the rest of the week… so I think I’ll just kind of leave the blog here… 

For the most part I just write these blogs the day after they happen… or I’ll catch up a few days later… but really the days kind of all just blurred together this week… so it kind of feels hard for me to go back and think about what else has happened. Just know that if you’re in mourning- it’s okay to have some bad days and some sad days. And it’s okay to have some moments of comfort and happiness. 

Byeee!

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
