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 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
