Journaling: The Best Thing Ever? Creativity, Writing Stuff!

So this is something I kind of love doing and I never really realized how much I really love just writing something down every day… whether it’s what happened to me during the day, my thoughts and feelings, how I felt during the day… what I’m going to do tomorrow… just little things like that. 

Lately I haven’t really been writing a personal journal for myself. I keep a mood log in my bullet journal and I write what I’ve been doing my weekly wrap up on this blog… which I think of as kind of a journal formatted for the public… it’s nice… but I can’t really tell any personal stories when I do that and I like being a little bit more personal… so I think I’m going to make time for myself to just unwind and write a little bit about my day. 

I had a loss in my family recently… which is very sad… but I was able to write down some memories and something that had a lot of meaning to me that is kind of hard to tell people  and it just feels really nice that I have that written down and I’ll have it forever. It’s just nice to have a memory for me. And I’ll probably do that again today because there’s another thing I wanted to add that I didn’t… so that’s something I’ll do. 

I also love my Bullet Journal… this helps me stay organized and keep track of the things I’m doing. I like knowing what I did that day and what I have to do… I feel more accomplished. Plus I like having a habit tracker, a mood log and just little things where I can write things down. 

I kind of want to even start another bullet journal maybe or just a journal dedicated to writing. Idk I kind of want to do some sort of journal thing where I just write a 5-minute story every day… that’d be a lot of fun… I think I’m going to try that tonight too… I realize this is a lot of time dedicated to writing already… and I already write 2 blogs daily and I’d like to work on other projects… but I think just investing a little bit more time into writing not on those projects will help me kind of re-evaluate things to do with that… if that makes sense. 

I also think I want to read more often and maybe watch more movies because from watching more Beauty Videos, I’ve gotten a lot of ideas for blogs and blog series for my beauty blog… and I’ve just been WAYYY more creative. I’m not even taking other ideas… but a lot of my more creative blog posts are ideas I got while watching another youtuber… so I feel like reading more and watching more movies will give me more creative ideas for other creative writing projects… if that makes any sense. 

So… yeah. I just thought I’d mention that… I’m really loving all the blog ideas I have going and I’m kind of excited with what’s coming to my blogs soon… and I feel like Journaling might be my favorite thing ever now… lol. 

Byeee!

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
