Weekly Wrap Up: July 12th 2020

Favorites 

Peter Monn- I feel bad watching drama commentary channels but... Peter Monn is really funny and he has a fun personality... plus every once and a while there's youtube drama that I like to listen to... actually I kind of follow a lot of commentary channels right now so... yeah. Peter Monn's the one that makes me laugh and not feel as hopeless about the world right now. I should watch his other channels too. 

The Pool- I went in the pool a couple of times this week. It was nice and relaxing so... that was good. I went in with my niece the first time and then read a book the second time. 

Life Scribbles 

Sunday I had the day off so my sister and niece came over and went in the pool with us... like I just mentioned. I might have talked about that last week because I write these on Sunday but... it was good. 

The rest of the week I worked... longer hours too because we  got a lot of hours this week. I had a day off on Wednesday so my boyfriend and I went to the mall and had lunch and dinner together. 

Noteworthy Snacks 

I finally got Frutta Bowl again... SOOO YUMMY! I love their bowls. I also had Mogo... I love Mogo but I ordered something different and I'm not sure it was enough food. 

Funyuns... I love how crispy these are... and I'm kind of liking onions a lot lately because my mom's been making a lot of salsas... so that's a new flavor I really like a lot. 

I also like the Purple Doritos, which are the Sweet Spicy Chili Flavor... which are also really good and flavorful! 

TV Highlights 

I watched another episode of The Bachelor Greatest Seasons Ever and they showed the first season of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette and they showed some of Trista's wedding. I actually watched the first season of The Bachelorette and I was rooting for Trista to choose Ryan so I was really happy for that! I liked Charlie a lot too but I'm happy she chose Ryan and that they're still together and they have a life together. They're so cute and they have a lovely family. 

News and World Events 

Okay this technically happened last week but DRAMAGEDDON 3 in the beauty community. Tati made a video saying that Shane Dawson and Jeffree Star gaslighted her into making a video against James Charles where she accused him of some really horrible things. I believe most of what Tati said in her video. It all seemed to make sense... and as someone that was a big fan of Shane Dawson... I'm really disappointed. He admitted that he knew Tati was making the video... that's enough for him to be more guilty than he is letting on... so yeah. 

Ohhh and I think this happened either this week or last week but Amy Cooper was arrested for calling the police saying that she was being attacked by a black man in Central Park when he wasn't attacking her at all- Chistian Cooper (no relation) simply asked her to put a leash on her dog. He was just minding his business bird watching. She was fired right after the incident but no legal action was taken and now she's been arrested... so that's a good thing at least. 

And of corse the very tragic news about Naya Rivera. I'm sure you've heard this story but the actress that played Santana on Glee went on a boating trip with her 4 year old son and it is believed that a riptide got her and she's now presumed dead and there are still search teams looking for her. Her family are in my thoughts right now, especially her son who was found alone on the boat after she disappeared. 


Thoughts 

I know the news is all kind of sad this week... I would love to put a more uplifting story at the end here to make things better... but there aren't really any that I know of right now... I'm sure there was some more uplifting stuff but... I just don't know or can't recall it right now... so I guess here's a good spot to quote John Lennon- Be The Change You Want To See In The World. 

Bye!

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

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
