Missed the movie... but had some fun shopping.

Ugh I keep meaning to write first thing in the morning... and I just haven't been waking up that early. Normally I'm up pretty early... but I've been cleaning up my room late at night... and I was just kind of exhausted today... so that didn't happen.

Another thing that didn't happen: Going to see Coco! My mom and I tried to get there early to see the 2:30 showing of Coco- but it was sold out when we went there! So we went shopping again...

But to go shopping... we had to pass the Food Court... not usually a bad thing- but it smelled TERRIBLE. I don't know what it could have been... it was near a Bananas and a Green Leaf- which sometimes smell terrible... and there were a couple of new places in that food court... I'm not eating there again though because it just smelled HORRIBLE!

We did get some Christmas sale deals at Hallmark, Disney Store and I got some $3 Wallflowers from Bath and Body Works. I also got some things from Forever 21... I usually kind of knock Forever 21... but I was looking for something specific to go with a Velvet Jumpsuit that I plan to wear for New Years Eve. The Jumpsuit is really pretty... but it needed like a jacket or something with it... so first I saw a velvet jacket that I kind of liked... and I thought I would wear that anyway so I still ended up getting it... but what I got to go with the jumpsuit is a Furry Vest! I've been wanting a furry vest since Scream Queens was on... and now I have one! Which I'm excited for! It looks really cool with the jumpsuit and the woman at Forever 21 really liked the way it sounded too. She said it has a Janis Joplin vibe... she didn't see the Jumpsuit but... I'm excited about this outfit and I was happy I asked her about it.

I also got a pair of earrings and a choker that went well with the outfit too... I already had a bag and shoes that go perfectly and the woman from Forever 21 seemed to like the idea of a pair of sunglasses with them... and i have a pair of blingy sunglasses- so I like that idea too. The whole outfit is pretty cool... you can check out an OOTD on my beauty blog on New Years Eve... but it's cute! I'm happy with everything I picked out.

I felt like I was more brave asking for help at Forever 21 because I've been watching Safiya Nygaard on youtube and yesterday I watched a video where she asked strangers to pick out her outfit... and I just thought that was kind of cool... so this Forever 21 lady helped shape my outfit idea... and that was kind of cool. Got me out of my comfort zone and it helped me pick out some items to get a look together!

So that was kind of cool... then I went out to dinner with my parents and then went to get Coffee and I got some drugstore makeup! My mom got me a gift card for $25 at the drugstore... plus I had a $10 off $30 gift card... still the drugstore is pretty darn expensive!  I used the giftcard- then some and I only got 4 things lol. Makeup is expensive! But fun!

Forever 21 was expensive too... I was kind of surprised but I did get 2 jackets and 2 pieces of jewelry... so I guess it's not that bad... but still... slightly surprised... but not disappointed.

Anyway... now I'm watching Modern Family and I think I'm going to get back to cleaning soon... so yeah!

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...

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...

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...
