Simply Meant to Be: Tina Belcher and Every Boy She Sees

Bob's Burgers, let  me just say, you're the greatest. If you haven't binge-watched Bob's Burgers on Netflix yet, what the heck are you doing?! Also, I'm jealous because you get to discover the magic and wit of the show for the first time. If you've seen Bob you know the best part of the show is the kids. While Gene is full of double entendres, and Louise is  brilliantly manipulative, Tina is awesomely relatable. Tina's boy obsession distracts her at every turn. She's totally butt-crazy in love with pretty much every guy she sees. The way she falls in love everywhere she looks is pretty inspirational. She's no stranger to unrequited love (like all of us at some point, probably). No matter who turns her down, Tina knows where her true self-worth lies. You can't knock down Tina Belcher! Jimmy Jr., Turtle-Finger-Bite-Guy, Jonas, etc., none of them worked out, but Tina pushed on. She is unabashedly exactly who she is all the time. Her confidence hardly ever wavers. So, as I'm writing this I'm sort of realizing that Tina and "Every Boy She Sees" aren't meant to be, it's Tina and herself. As she once said,
"I don't need a boy to pay attention to me. I can pay attention to myself." All hail Tina Belcher, the queen of self love.

I'm Back!!!!

Hi, I realize its been several eternities since I last posted here, and for that I apologize. I've been a little busy for the past couple of months with school and holidays and such which really isn't an excuse! So here I am again, ready to share with anyone out there my love for film and TV and whatnot. This up-coming week is exam week for me, so I'll try to post in between studying sessions! Once again, if you're reading this, thank you!
