January 2017 It List

Here we go!

1) Hamilton- Making it's 11 millionth appearance on a Scribbles About Life It List... is Hamilton. I actually saw the play now! And it was the best! It is a really powerful performance! If you've listened to the soundtrack... for the most part that is what is in the show... but watching it live is just amazing! If you are wanting to see it... HIGHLY recommend trying to get tickets! It is the best.

2) Crazy Ex Girlfriend- I just bingewatched most of the second season today... and I love it! It's a really funny show... it's a really good one to bingewatch because I always want more after watching one episode. The CW shows in general would all be good if they were streamed... hmmm... Anyway yeah this season is really funny and really good.

3) A Series of Unfortunate Events- I'm going to say both the TV show and the books... even though I just started getting back into the books. I'm reading The Austere Academy right now and it's great! But the TV show was just really really funny and it was surprising. I liked the movie... but I think the series makes more sense. It came out the same day that my sister had her baby, which was Friday the 13th... so that was fun.

4) Being an Aunt- This is definitely the biggest thing that happened this month! My niece decided to join the family early... and that's been fun. I just face timed with my sister and her a few minutes ago and that was really cool! It's so cute how babies talk to you and let you know when they need you or what they want. She was crying and then my sister sang "Wheels on the bus" to her and she just fell right asleep while we were on FaceTime. So cute!

5) Caramel Latte from Starbucks- Awkward transition... so the Starbucks I usually go to does still have the holiday flavors... but I started liking the Caramel Brûlée from that... so then I started getting the regular caramel latte... and I love it! So yummy. I was just a little tired of the White Mocha... so this is a nice change for me even though it is kind of basic... it makes sense to me.

6) Bright Sun Films Abandoned Series- Random re-discovery favorite kind of... I found the channel again after their Westcot video... and now I watch their videos late at night and it's kind of spooky... but it's sort of a tradition for me so now I'm really into it. I just think there's something cool about abandoned places. There aren't many abandoned places around me... I think because of gangs... but something interesting about it!

7) Adam the Woo- I've been really liking Adam The Woo's videos this month too! He has a trailer now, and he's living in that and traveling around the country... which is cool! It's a different way of seeing the country! Right now I think he's still in Texas... so that's kind of cool!

8) The Slapp- My sister got me this for Christmas. It's a beanie with silk lining and you can fit all your hair in it, for when you go to sleep or if you want to protect your hair from the rain. It's really good for my hair especially overnight because it keeps my hair looking like I just washed it overnight. So it's really good! Highly recommend for anyone with long hair that doesn't mind looking a little funny at night.

9) My camera- I got a new camera and I love it! It's a canon point and shoot (I think that's what it's called... it's just a little digital camera.)  It's easy to use and it takes pretty good pictures! I need to get something a little more interesting to take pictures of for my "Scribbles!" Post!

That is everything! Hope you guys like this!

Byeee!

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...

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...

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...
