2020... Was this the worst year ever?

 Alright guys... 2020 is over as of today... I'm writing this on December 29th- but I'm posting this on the first so yeah. 

And I have to say as crappy as it was... this is the year I'll probably remember more than a lot of years. It's the year I'll talk about the most and... there are things that were totally unimportant that are things I wouldn't have been special any other year... but this year they're like highlights. 

Early on in the year my boyfriend and I saw kind of a lot of movies... which is great- but it's something that we sort of always do... but NOW this is like all I can think about. We haven't seen a movie since Onward released in March... and I don't think we'll be going back any time soon. I just keep thinking like "wow- we saw Invisible Man, Harley Quinn, Sonic the Hedgehog, Onward... I feel like maybe we saw something else... but I keep thinking about it like "Wow! That was so cool. We just saw The Invisible Man in Theaters and went out to dinner after (or maybe before) like it was nothing!" And now... we watch movies on our couch... which is fun but Movie Theaters were great and I'd love to go back to one one day! 

When the shutdown happened... it was scary. I work in a store and it's usually very busy... and we barely had any customers. After the Disney Parks shut down... it was like everyone knew something was going on and... it wasn't too long before we closed too. The last day was kind of scary- I didn't know we would be closed. The night before there was an earlier time we were closing and... it was just weird that day. We were just trying to clean things up and put things away. It was a weird day. 

Before that was my boyfriend's birthday- which is when Indoor Dining was closed- so we had to do takeout from Chili's for his birthday and my mom went out and bought him a cake and st patrick's day cupcakes because his birthday is on St. Patrick's Day... it was a fun day but a weird day and a sad day cause that was the last day I saw him in a while. 

There was also a day on my boyfriend's spring break where we went shopping like all day and I remember seeing Target wiped out of Toilet Paper, Paper Towels, antibacterial wipes, and Hand Sanitizers. They had someone standing outside of Bath and Body Works saying that there was no more Hand Sanitizer... it was crazy. 

Okay so my favorite parts of 2020... ANIMAL CROSSING NEW HORIZONS! Omg... I played this game all day every day during the shutdown. It was so much fun... I have so many good neighbors and... I just really like my island. I named it Spencario after my dog Spencer. 

Also The Bachelorette! I loved this season so much. The 2 bachelorettes... the 2 engagements and love stories... I really liked Tayshia on The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise... and I was happy to see her on the show. And I kinda liked Clare's part too... I was not really a fan of clare on Bachelor Winter Games... but she was kinda crazy on the Bachelorette... but I can see why. I don't exactly know if I'd feel comfortable dating 30 guys in a pandemic and I probably would end the show early too if I felt a connection with one guy. And she didn't waste the other guys time for that long... they were able to get a new lady in and... she did a great job. And now both Clare and Tayshia are happily engaged after 3 seasons with no successful engagements. 

I also never watched Dancing With The Stars before... but that was the first show to return and it was fun to watch. And I forgot how much I actually love dancing and watching Dancing so that was a really great show to watch for that. Plus everyone was so good! I wanted Nev to win... but I love Kaitlyn Bristowe and I'm so happy she won. 

And HAMILTON! Hamilton is my favorite thing ever... but this year Disney Plus... which is another favorite... released Hamilton and I watched it so many times. I love it. I want to watch it again and again and again just talking about it... 

Okay... I think that's everything I want to talk about. I hope you guys have a great New Year's. I really am hoping to post every day on this blog this year... but thats been my goal for a few years so... we'll see. But maybe I can make it through January... I don't have many ideas on what to post but... maybe I will. 

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
