How To-sday: How To Arrange a Bookshelf

Ahhhh arranging a bookshelf. If you thought you knew how to do it you're probably wrong because I just did it wayyy better!

1) Use it For DVDs 
I don't always keep a lot of my books... so many of my book shelves are really DVD shelves. So yeah.

2)  By Genre... 
You ever think "Hey I'm in the mood for a horror Movie" and all you're finding is rom coms? Fear no more! Just arrange your dvds according to different genres. I have a section for Romantic Comedies/Chick Flicks, Horror and serious movies... on that shelf I also have my X Files DVDs and Tim Burton Movies because that fit there... One shelf I have cartoons, kids movies and holiday movies... one shelf is comedies, next shelf is TV... and I think that's it.

3) Give Wes Anderson Movies Their Own Shelf- 
The only movie that didn't fit in my collection was The Royal Tenenbaums... Couldn't figure out where to put it... so it might get it's own shelf. Maybe I'll get other Wes Anderson Movies to put on that same shelf? Right Now I think I have it with the Chick Flicks because I had some room there.

4)  Put Other Stuff there? 
I had some room so I ended up putting my Bath and Body Works Perfumes on one shelf. I kind of like that because then when I use my perfume in the morning I can see what sort of movies I have and I can be like "Ohh... I should watch Pitch Perfect Tonight."

5) Dedicate some space for your faves 
As I said with books... I don't necessarily keep every book I have because I'm unlikely to read them more than once... but some of my favorites are Harry Potter and The Princess Diaries. I also have a lot of Autobiographies from different people like Mindy Kaling, Tina Fey and Others that I'm obviously going to keep... so those have a shelf. I have a whole shelf with all of my Friends DVDs which is exciting. I watch these a lot or go back to reread them a lot... or I just like looking at them. So they have their own shelves.

6) Movies or Books You Don't need to see or read more than once? Get rid of them!!! 
There are some books and movies that are good... but do you really think you'll watch them again or read them again? No. Give it to someone else- see if they'll enjoy it and make some more room on your shelf!

That's everything I can think of! Hope you guys are as awesome at life as I clearly am lol... and I'll see you tomorrow!

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...
