Weekly Wrap Up 8.16.20

 It's my boyfriend and my 2 year dating anniversary today! Two years ago we went to PF Changs and saw the movie Christopher Robin and it was the best first date ever! Anyway- here's the weekly wrap up! 

Favorites 

Umbrella Academy Season 2- This is such a fun show! I have a review of it coming up next week... but just know this isn't an easy show to review... so just watch it and let me know if you guys love it as much as I do. I liked the second season wayyyy better than the first one. 

We Bare Bears- My boyfriend made me watch this show! It's really cute and funny... I only saw the first  2 episodes I think... maybe the first 3... yeah the first 3 I think... but it's really funny and a lot of the voices are famous comedians. So yeah! That's great! 

Bath and Body Works- Bath and Body Works is like my happy place lately and I've been buying A LOT from there and it's all really good stuff. They have a new Aromatherapy Line that I like a lot- and they have a lot of really great new fall scents. Great stuff that I definitely recommend checking out! 

Life Scribbles 

I went to work this week... I had the weekend off which is great. 

I switched where my makeup is to my other room and now I have my notebooks and papery writing stuff on my desk in my room... so this is really nice! 

And... other than that... I had a wrap from a restaurant I like... I shopped a bit... didn't do anything too crazy but I had a good week! 

Noteworthy Snacks 

I've been going to Finn's kind of a lot lately... it's a place that once I eat at I can't really get enough of and lately I've been ordering something called the Hawaii Five 0... which is a Chicken Caesar Wrap and I really like it. It's something I didn't think I'd like- but now that I've tried it I might order this from more places. 

I also had a cookies and cream Twix Bar... which was alright- but the Oreo Bars are way better. 

TV Highlights 

General Hospital is back on!!! Finally something new! But they have a new Sam... who I don't really like and a new Nicholas who I think was on the show before... but I don't like him as much as the other Nicholas. It's stuff I'll need to get used to but I probably won't really watch the show enough. 

Thoughts 

I'm just really happy and I have been for 2 years!!! 

Bye!

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...

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...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
