Weekly Wrap Up 11/20/16

Favorites  Late Night TV- As I've mentioned... I'm trying to watch as much late night TV as I can  lately... this week I've watched The Late Show, The Late Late Show, Late Night with Seth Meyers, and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. I mostly have them on in the  background  while I do other stuff. Late Night and The Late Late show I try to watch live... but most of it I try to have on while blogging or cleaning my room or doing my makeup. Right now The Late Show is on while I'm writing this. I still want to watch Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, some more Seth Meyers... probably Bill Mahr and Samantha Bee too. It's a good time for Late Night TV.  How To Get Away With Murder- Wow... That Winter Finale... Wow! That's all I'll say... it was pretty shocking. I did a whole post on it yesterday... so just know it was pretty great.  Life Scribbles Monday I went out to lunch with my mom... I think I went to Harmon and Starbucks too... yep that was ...

I started Meditating? Here's what happened!

So I started meditating kind of by accident. Did I tell the weird story about meditation the other day? That will be another post if I didn't.... cause last Wednesday was a weird day aside from the obvious reasons. Anyway, for whatever reason I was looking up Spa Sounds and I found a youtube page called "The Honest Guys" and they had a pretty video going through clouds and that was good... but it was 3 hours and I don't think that's my thing. Then I found  this  video and decided to use it... so I did, and I came up with a cute little story kind of... it isn't finished, but there were characters and there was something to go by with the story. Its a start. I wrote it down in my notebook after and I got a little bit further in writing it. Its a good way to start doing something, so if you're looking to start writing something... even if you don't know what to write about... I'd recommend a guided meditation. There was something else like this I ...

Scribbles About TV: Cool Things About David Letterman

Sooo... I thought I'd just mention some cool things about David Letterman because he just ended his term on The Late Show and to me, he's timeless. He's always been funny, always been relevant. I'm a big fan of Late Night TV and in recent years, Letterman is probably the show I've watched the least of all the Late Night Shows... but growing up I watched it a lot. I wasn't like staying up late and watching it or anything as a kid... maybe sometimes lol. I just feel like it was always on. Like they had a clip of him with a kid and he was singing jingle bells and then the kid sings "You are not you are not you are not funny" to him (in the tune of Jingle Bells) and I remember that being a joke in my house for a little while. My sister and I said it to each other a lot. And I think that is a really cool thing. Like he did a lot of interviews with famous people and a lot of stuff like that, people guest starred on his top 10 and stuff like that... but he ...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...

Man Crush Monday: Seth Meyers

1) He's a good host- He always seems genuinely interested in all of his guests... which is something I don't think a lot of hosts really are. I feel like he just likes talking to people and he's really good at it and I just like him. 2) He's kept his SNL Friends- Its rare to hear of someone being in an SNL cast and not still being friends with other cast members that were on during the same run, or even older cast members and newer cast members... so I guess it isn't really a huge deal or anything that he's still friends with everyone, but its really cute. I love that Amy Poehler was the first guest on his show and he wrote a chapter in her book. I love that Fred Armisan is his band leader and I love seeing their banter every night. And I love whenever he and Bill Hader are in a room together pretty much... well not Bill Hader, Stephon... but still. lol. And also a few weeks ago they showed a video of Will Forte making a speech at Seth's wedding in chara...

Man Crush Monday- Stephen Colbert

I  can't believe I haven't posted this yet... but guys I love Stephen Colbert. He is my favorite late night talk show host, I absolutely love his satire, I think he's a really good person that deserves good things and I cannot wait to see him host The Late Show. I'm definitely going to miss The Colbert Report. It is definitely my favorite late night talk show, I always look forward to watching The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, and @ Midnight, I've been doing that a lot lately and I just really love it. I really love that he has his own character that can say and do sooo many ridiculous things and I really don't think that anyone can do a satire the way that Colbert does. He really is the best. I also have to say that I love the way that Stephen defended himself after the Cancel Colbert controversy. He handled it really well, he didn't apologize, he said not to attack the girl. He pointed out the truth that was ridiculous about the original report that ...

The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon- Review

I don't usually watch Jimmy Fallon or Leno or anything... but I do like Jimmy Fallon a lot so of corse I had to watch his first episode on the tonight show. I remember watching his first episode of Late Night and it was super funny. I remember he did a game called "lick it for ten" where he would have people lick things for $10. It was fun. $10 is just enough money to get me to lick something around the studio, but its also probably a gross enough thing for a lot of people to not want to do for a small amount of money. It's brilliant. Anyway this was a lot different. His guests were Will Smith and U2. He did a little sketch with Will Smith where they did the evolution of hip hop dancing and it was funny. There was a bit at the beginning of the show where he told off his friend saying "You never said I'd be on the Tonight Show. Guess you owe me $100." Then a bunch of celebrities came out including Tina Fey, Sarah Jessica Parker, Joe Namath, Seth Rogen, ...
