Music Monday: Billie Eillish When We All Go To Sleep Where Do We Go

When I first heard Bad Guy- I thought it was a really good song! And then that was the only thing they ever played on the radio and... it was a little much. Still a good song- but they play it soooo much! 

Anyway I was excited to listen to the full album. I love her voice and I think her songs kind of have a halloween-ish spooky feel which I really like. It's just a cool album. 

I wouldn't say this is "chill" the way I described Harry Styles- but she does kind of have a calming voice. I feel like an album like this is good to listen to while traveling- this is something I probably would have listened to this on the train on my way home from college. She reminds me a bit of Lorde and The Lumineers- who I listened to a lot back then. 

I saw a live acoustic performance by Billie and her brother as one of the quarantine specials and she did an amazing job. She's really talented. 

So my favorite song on the whole album is "My Strange Addiction" because I'm a huge fan of The Office and she uses sound clips from the episode Threat Level Midnight in the episode. It's a good song to begin with but The Office just makes it way better. 

And Billie is also a massive fan of The Office and I think she's now good friends with Rainn Wilson- which is really cool. 

Anyway overall this isn't my favorite album ever- there aren't any songs that really stick out but it's a good one to listen to and I really like it. I'm excited to hear more from Billie Eillish.

Bye!

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 del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
