App of The Week: Plants vs Zombies

So I used to do App reviews on this blog called Appyness-and I was thinking I would do that... but I think I might have already done an actual Appyness review on this before- so I thought that I would just do a little post about what I like about the game and why I'm playing it again right now. My boyfriend and I just talked about how much better Plants vs. Zombies 1 was compared to Plants vs. Zombies 2. This game is a little bit spooky... so I thought that this would be really fun to play again around this time of year. If you've never played before- it is a strategy game where you have to plant different plants to kill zombies and keep them out of your house and away from your brains! It does get a lot harder as you keep going. I think my favorite levels are the nighttime ones and the pool levels. There's just something so fun about these and I really like the different plants that you get to defend yourselves in these levels. I also really love the mini games...

My Lucky Earrings Story

This is just a weird story that happened today. So for my birthday my boyfriend Aspen got me a pair of Kate Spade earrings that I had actually picked out from the store I work at. And these are beautiful kind of simple earrings but still really fancy looking and just really nice. They're rings with some CZ stones around it I think... and it's just really pretty. I was going to my grandmother's house and I was excited to show her that my boyfriend got me these earrings... so I brought them out to the living room to put them on in front of a mirror... and I put one in and the other one went missing! I looked everywhere that I thought it could be... but I couldn't find it anywhere. I hadn't really looked all over in my room... so I thought it might still be there. I did grab an extra back the day that it went missing, so I thought maybe I had just gotten two backs and dropped the earring somewhere in my room... I wasn't that worried that my dog had gotten t

Book/ Notebook Haul! October 2019

Recently I've gotten a lot of books and notebooks... so I just thought I'd share what I've been getting... so yeah! Also I do go to Barnes and Noble often for my books- and I'll probably go there soon... but none of these books are actually from Barnes and Noble! These are just things I picked up that aren't really from Book Stores! I'm going to start out with the notebooks because I did get some fun ones! I found 2 of these at the store I work at and I 100% absolutely needed them! They are from the brand Wacct and they have some of my favorite people on them! The first one I found has David Bowie on it... if you guys don't know I'm a massive David Bowie fan- so of corse I needed that! The second one has the Fab 5 from Queer Eye on it... I have no idea what I'll write in the Bowie notebook- but the Queer Eye one I want to use more as a self-help type of notebook. A lot of the books on here are self help books! I also got a Pusheen Planner! Th

It List: October 2019

I haven't done one of these in a while... but here are my favorites for the month! 1) Joker- Everyone is talking about this movie for a good reason- it is amazing! I literally can't stop thinking about it... it was very dark and disturbing- but just a really great and heartbreaking story! Definitely a great take on one of my favorite villains. 2) Epicurious 4 Levels of...- This is a fun youtube cooking show where they take 3 levels of chefs- an amateur, a home chef and a professional chef. All 3 of them cook the same dish and then a food scientist goes over their recipes and ingredients and why they work or didn't work. It's fun to see how all the recipes turn out and to get some useful tips for some of these recipes. 3) My New Michael Kors Handbag- I just got this because it was on clearance and totally my color... but it's just such a nice big bag that's really easy to open and close and carry... I Just love the design of this bag and it's so nice an

El Camino: The Perfect Follow Up to Breaking Bad

The thing I don't love about the "reboot" types of movies and tv shows that we've been seeing lately is that you can only really "end" a series once. Harry Potter, for example... that had 7 great books and a perfect ending... and it isn't like I disliked the 8th play "The Cursed Child" but... in my opinion it added to much to the end of the original books and I didn't really like that. I was worried that something might happen to Jesse that would change the original ending of Breaking Bad- which I thought wrapped everything up perfectly. And Breaking Bad is probably my favorite TV Show other than the comedies that I watch all of the time. I really liked that they didn't kill Jesse Pinkman in the end of the series. In the Emmy's that year they even had a joke that Jesse Pinkman lived but the mother from How I Met Your Mother died. I was worried about Jesse as soon as I saw the trailer. So all of that being said though... this was

10 Scenes from Joker I Can't Get Outta My Head- Spoilers!

Okay... I just saw the movie Joker last night and it was amazing... but here are 10 scenes in particular I can't stop thinking about.  These aren't in any real order... but obviously... spoilers. 10) Arthur's Laugh at the Beginning of the movie- When he started the laugh in the therapist's office, I thought that that the whole movie might just be that laugh... and I was okay with that. It's such a good laugh and the fact that he actually starts to choke and cry a little bit because of it is so heartbreaking. 9) Arthur Drops the Gun at the Children's Hospital- This is an actual funny scene before the movie becomes very dark. We see Arthur doing a really good job as a clown in a kids hospital and the kids seemed to actually like him... then a gun falls out of his pocket, and he responds in character as the clown... it's just really good. This also leads to Joker getting fired, we're revealed that Randall who called Arthur "his boy" and gav
