Target Tuesday: What I Miss About Target

So while I know Target is still open and considered an essential business... for what I go to Target for- it doesn't make sense to go there. I don't think they should be open other than for groceries- so as much as I love Target and as much as I'd like to go there just to see what they have or just be in there... I know its not right and I can get anything I want from Target online... as you guys can tell from my other 2 Target Posts. Tomorrow I might put what I LOVE about Target's website because it is all the joy of Target from your home. The Dollar Spot  The dollar spot is very fun to peruse and see all of the decorations. I haven't been buying as much from the dollar spot recently, but it is one of my favorite places to check out around holidays and I love seeing how people decorate using items from The Dollar Spot. This is also known as Bullseye's Playground... which leads me to my next point. Bullseye  Bullseye is so cute!!! I miss seeing him aroun...

Collecting Things: Ralph Breaks The Internet Funko Pops

So I thought this might be a fun thing for me to write... I feel like any collector can kind of relate to this too... the need to get all the things, or the things you could get to complete the collection and just basically the fun of collecting things in general. Before I even saw Ralph Breaks The Internet- I knew that I loved the scene/ idea of the Cozy Princesses that have a sleepover with Vanellope and... I just thought this was a cute little disney crossover and kind of a perfect way for Disney to kind of poke fun at themselves. And after seeing the movie I got a little more obsessed with it... and now I'm collecting all of them... and my desk looks like this now... So it all started off with Rapunzel and Jasmine. I was in Boxlunch with my boyfriend and I knew I wanted to collect them all... but I wanted to start out with my favorites... and quite frankly the ones that Boxlunch had the fewest of because I figured these wouldn't be super hard to find... but still. ...

Missed the movie... but had some fun shopping.

Ugh I keep meaning to write first thing in the morning... and I just haven't been waking up that early. Normally I'm up pretty early... but I've been cleaning up my room late at night... and I was just kind of exhausted today... so that didn't happen. Another thing that didn't happen: Going to see Coco! My mom and I tried to get there early to see the 2:30 showing of Coco- but it was sold out when we went there! So we went shopping again... But to go shopping... we had to pass the Food Court... not usually a bad thing- but it smelled TERRIBLE. I don't know what it could have been... it was near a Bananas and a Green Leaf- which sometimes smell terrible... and there were a couple of new places in that food court... I'm not eating there again though because it just smelled HORRIBLE! We did get some Christmas sale deals at Hallmark, Disney Store and I got some $3 Wallflowers from Bath and Body Works. I also got some things from Forever 21... I usually kin...

Weekly Wrap Up- Labor Day Party, Shopping, American Horror Story, Grandparents Day and More!

Sooo I want to get back into telling you about my week again! Here we go! Sunday 9.3.17  My mom was having a party for Labor Day Weekend on Sunday. That was fun- a lot of my family came over and we had cheeseburgers... some hot dogs... some hamburgers... but it was good. My niece was over- which is always a lot of fun. The family loves seeing her. She's super funny and cute and a baby... which is fun. I see her all the time- but not everyone in my family does... so it's really cute to see her with everyone. My stye was irritated on Sunday... just a little bit... I thought it was going to go away... but today is Tuesday- and... it got worse... so I'm going to do the hot compresses and everything. It will go away. I have a chronic stye... so every once and a while something irritates it. I think it was allergies and stress this time. Monday 9.4.17  Today was actually Labor Day... and it was a really nice day out... but it was the "last day" for the labor...

Weekly Wrap Up- What I've been doing this week, some news, and some favorites!

Alrighty… I’m changing how I do the Weekly Wrap Up a little bit… I think I’m just kind of going to give an overview of my day, any news that kind of shaped that day… and I’ll talk about some of my favorite things of the day that day… so it’ll be a little more in depth… a little longer… two things you don’t want to do on a blog… but I’m doing them anyway because why not.  Sunday 7.9.17  So I’ve mentioned this in other blogs before, but I’m getting new furniture in my room, and redecorating it, repainting it and whatnot… so I’ve been moving everything from my room and I’m almost done with it… I’m writing this recap on Monday and I should be done with it tonight and I’ll clean up after that… but it was kind of driving me crazy again today… it’s a little more relaxing to just have nothing in there, not much to do… but at the same time… there was a lot to do and a lot I had to get rid of and clean out a lot… I still need to vacuum and clean and stuff… but right now… most e...

Scribbles! 3.4.17

Saturday 2.25  Today we had friends over for dinner. We were celebrating one of our friends birthdays and we just caught up, ate some roast beef and it was all nice and fun! They were over for a while! It was good! We had fun! I watched some crazy ex girlfriend, I cleaned the bathroom and started listening to the soundtrack for Dear Evan Hansen... which was really good so far! I've just been listening to musical soundtracks lately, I've been listening to The Great Comet of 1812 and I finished that... so now I'm just watching a little bit of everything! Sunday 2.26  Sunday my sister and niece stopped over! She picked up the handprint paperweight that she made with the baby and we got one as well! So cute! We talked a little and watched the baby and played with her and we watched the Oscars a little bit! The baby looks a little bigger and different every time we see her now! She's got a lot of hair! She's so cute! Also I did a recap of the Oscars already... but ...

Scribbles About Life: 10.17.16

My first day as a 25 year old... here's what happened! I woke up super early... I did makeup that was a little weird, different than what I usually do... but still nice and yeah. It's Ravenclaw inspired and it will be on a blog coming soon. Then my mom and I went to Costco. She needed to return something and we looked around a little bit. It was fun. But then we needed coffee... so we went to Starbucks! Which happens to be inside of a Target... so we looked at Target! I got Crayola Markers and the book Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarity... Idk what its about but its for my book club. And we went to AC Moore to look at halloween decorations and stuff and then CVS because that's always fun. We were going to go to a Greek place that we liked... but its closed apparently, which is really sad... so we went to a different Greek Place and that was good too. Then we went to my mom's friends house and talked a little bit. Then I went home and colored. I got a few n...

What's up Wednesday: 6.8.16

So this is new and idk what its going to be about. I just came up with the name... I think I'll maybe just tell a story of something that happened to me today... or something that affected my life... or maybe a few things. Idk. I feel like I have a few good ones today... so maybe it'll be a good one. The Little Kid Pictures  So I don't really feel like posting these... but my grandmother gave me some pictures of me as a little kid and I was at a farm with some roosters and I have a purple jacket on. It was really cute! I'm happy my grandmother got those pictures and gave them to me. Lol. The PF Changs Funny Moment So my mom and I ate at PF Changs today... and we sat at a table and the waitress kept trying to sit people down at the table next to us... but 3 people rejected that table! Some people wanted a booth thats fine... but then the last people took the seat next to that table... but still not the table next to us! Must have been because it was too close... at...

Weekly Wrap Up: 3/20/16

Favorites  Big Love- This has been mentioned before... but season 2 is wayyy better than season 1. Season 1 wasn't bad... but there were a lot of storylines they just kind of gave up on and never mentioned again. Season 2 hasn't been like that and I'm almost done with it. Instagram- I've been having some fun with Instagram! I created another account called Shannonsreviews and I like it a lot. Coach Outlets- I really like the Coach Outlets. They had 50% off this week. I may or may not have gotten 2 bags in 2 days... lol. Highlights  Sunday and Tuesday I went to the fancy mall. Friday and Saturday I got coach bags at the outlets... oops. Noteworthy Snacks  I tried an Irish Cream Nut Chiller from Gloria Jeans and I really liked it! I tried the Superman Cereal and it was awesome! I may do another scribbles about food... if I haven't already. There are so many Scribbles About Food this month its not even funny... I'm sorry lol. I had a frog cupcake f...

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...

Last Minute Gift Ideas

So... these are literally lassssttt minute gift ideas. Lol. It's Christmas Eve, its kind of your last chance... you need something quick, easy and good. Now these aren't the times to go to the mall... you probably don't want to go to the grocery store, these are quick, easy cheap things... that may get you a little out of trouble. Lol. I'm not saying get these for your wife, girlfriend, mom... but if you're desperate and you don't want to go to the mall... here are some things. You could always get E-gift cards. Check out what online only stores they like and see if you can get an e-gift card. You could also probably get them from other stores and retailers that are not online only. You could check out Guilt City, they offer discounts on websites... so you can buy a 50 gift card for 40 dollars or something like that. Scratch off tickets are also a good gift. You can go to your local convenience store and get a few holiday themed ones. These are fun and may...

Scribble About Life: One Of Those Days

Do you ever have one of those days where you keep picking the wrong lines at stores? That was my day today. Lol. So I figured I'd tell you guys about it. So my mom and I went to the mall. I had a censor left on a coat that we had gotten a few months ago, but it just got cold enough to wear and I happened to notice it yesterday while in American Eagle... and then the alarms went off. SO that was  a thing... Anyway we went to get that taken off today, there were lines all over, we got in a short line... but it still took a while to just do that.  Then we went to Sephora... surprisingly no line there. There is always a line at my Sephora, but we were in and out there pretty quickly.  Then we went to a small toy store and we were going to get a game for someone, but then we saw the price tag for that game and it was ridiculous. Plus we waited in line for forever and no one was anywhere near the register to help us... so that was an issue.  Then we went to...

Weekly Wrap Up: 11/29/15 The One With The Thanksgiving Post.

Alrighty! Happy Thanksgiving weekend! Today is my sister's birthday, so Happy Birthday to her! And its also Thanksgiving week and my grandfather's birthday was on Thanksgiving, so this is a pretty big week! Hope everyone else is having a great week too! Into the favorites! Favorites  KFC Extra Crispy Chicken- Ohhh my god. This is so good. I got the three piece meal with the mashed potatoes and gravy and cole slaw... not a fan of the cole slaw... but damn. That was amazing. I was also starving... but it was damn good. Glass Plus/Windex- What kind of Greek would I be if I didn't mention Windex? Lol. I was helping my mom clean this week and this worked! Not complaining there! Lol. This is the weirdest favorites ever because I kind of hated everything this week. Lol. Thanksgiving Sandwiches- Whoever thought of these are awesome. You take a hard roll, some leftover turkey, stuffing and cranberries... and you got a bitchin lunch right there. Not wearing a bra- This may b...

Small Haul

Sooo a few days ago I decided why not go to the mall and then I saw things to buy and I was like "why not buy those things" so I did just that. So first I went to CVS and they had a deal on physicians formula that I was really looking at... But physicians formula is quite expensive, and a lot of it is really really small. The packaging for their CC creams I thought would be much bigger, but they aren't all that much bigger than the Rimmel Foundation I use and it's like $17 at Cvs... So I was like nahhhh I'll pass on that. But I did not pass on the NYC stuff. So I'm slowly trying to get more into bronzers and stuff, and I thought NYC's Sunny Bronzer would be a good start to that. It's only a few dollars and everyone raves about it. It's so nice and light and I have to say I love the packaging. A lot of the NYC packaging is pretty cheap, the tops of their expert last lipsticks, which I love- fall off all the time. This one is hard to open, so I g...

Feeling Lovely Friday: Haul???Haul!!!! (Sephora, CVS, Harmon Discount & more)

Do I need more stuff? Yes, yes I do. So I felt like buying some make up recently and I had a 15 percent off sephora coupon so I thought "what the hell" and went to the mall. I had no idea what I wanted at sephora because honestly there is sooo much new stuff and it all looks pretty and gorgeous and I want it all basically. And honestly I was super SUPER close to buying the two faced chocolate bar palette... But I have a lot of eye palettes I didn't think I would use it right now and I want it someday but it isn't a big need in my life right now. But I did want to try a higher-end blush because all I have are drugstore blushes and they all kind of look the same. So I got their Microsmooth Baked Blush duo in Guava Glow... And it is a bit dark and orangey and out of my comfort zone... But it's still gorgeous and the formula is great so I'm really happy with it and will definitely put it to good use. I had also been eyeing some of the new colors in the Sti...

Feeling Lovely Friday: More Successful Haul + Influenster Uni Voxbox unboxing.

Sooo I was a little bummed about my haul last week... but I recently had a super satisfying and amazing shopping trip where I got a lot of really cool stuff. And it is my spring break, so I have a feeling there will be just a little more to come from this... let's start off though. Cotton On First my friend Cristina and I went to Cotton On and they had 2 for $40 hoodies and we decided to each get one and split the price. I got this nice purple and grey hoodie that says New York and it also says 91 which is my birth-year... so I was happy with that. Forever 21  Usually I don't find anything at forever 21... but this time was different. First I found these really cool sunglasses with a chain detail on the side and because it's forever 21 and its cheap I got 2 of them. I got a cream colored one and a mint one. Forgot to take a pic in these, but you will see them when it gets a little sunnier out fo' sho. <<< PIC !!! Next I saw this really pretty colo...
