It List: April 2017

1) 13 Reasons Why- This has been my favorite show of the month I think... It was a really great binge. I was a little skeptical at first because it wasn't really all that subtle. It's predictable... there are a few surprises... but nothing that you can't really predict... it's a good show to watch on Netflix... I'm excited for more seasons... and I was even watching it a second time because I just liked it a lot. It's almost like a movie... which is cool. Brian D'arcy James and Kate Walsh are great... the rest of the cast is pretty good too... I just like it!

2) Unicorn Frap- This is the most unique drink Starbucks has had in a while. It's very flavorful... it's sweet then it gets sour... then sweet again then very sour... it's not for everyone... but I really liked it and it's probably a highlight of the month for me.

3) Sephora and Ulta Sales- I feel like I can't not mention the Sephora and Ulta sales that happened this month... because those just made me really happy. I love makeup, I have a makeup blog, an instagram account reviewing makeup... I just like it a lot. Sephora and Ulta are my favorite places to buy makeup- especially high end makeup... they don't often have sales- but they both had sales recently. Sephora's was 15% off and Ulta's was 20% off... I love everything I got during the sales and I'm just happy because of these sales. I get happy at sales lol.

4) Bullet Journals- This is a fun way of planning... it's a little bit more creative... I'll probably do a bit of a post on my bullet journal so far... so I'm really happy with this and I'll try to keep up with it and be a little bit more creative with it.

5) Plan With Me Videos- Speaking of planning... this week's "Shannon Does It" was going to be a scheduling post... that didn't go all that well... but I'm starting to get the hang of it... I'm kind of liking doing this... so we'll see what happens and if I can hopefully stick to it... and I'll do some plan type posts maybe... it didn't work out the way I wanted to this month thus far... but that didn't really work. Either way I love Plan With Me Videos... I like seeing people doing the same thing in different ways... that just makes me happy and kind of amazes me... so I would say they're a favorite of the month... I'm probably going to try to stick to a better schedule and we'll see what happens... but so far I really like the videos...and Bullet Journaling... that's something right?

6) Life in Pieces- This show is so funny. I know, I didn't like it when I first reviewed it when it first came out... there are several shows I've given great reviews of and haven't continued watching... and this one somehow had the opposite effect. I just love it- its so clever... the 4 short stories thing isn't my favorite way of storytelling on TV... this show gets it right.

7) Trial and Error- This has still been a favorite this month even though I believe it was on last month's it list. It wrapped up a little while ago, I just did a review on that... and it was great! I really liked how it ended... I'm hoping they do more seasons... but right now I'm happy with it... it's a good show. It's a funny show! It's probably all on NBC on Demand right now... I would definitely recommend watching it, especially if you like Parks and Rec, Arrested Development... and even 30 Rock. I think it reminded me of Queen of Jordan because Sherri Shepherd was so great.


8) Justin Scarred on Youtube- This is just a fun youtube channel... I've mentioned it before on this It List, but he's been in Paris recently and his videos have just been really great. It kind of gets you into the history of everything... plus he is staying at Disneyland Paris- which is awesome! His channel has very detailed information about different disney parks and it's just really good. A lot of people have 4 Parks, One Day video- his is definitely the most detailed and I would recommend checking that out... because that kind of gives you a feel of the videos he does.

I think that is everything! Not a lot of favorites this month... but I love all of these things and would recommend checking them out!

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
