Blogmas Day 5: Christmas Season Bucket List!

I did one of these for the summer... and I kind of failed that bucket list... so hopefully I'll do a little bit better with this one!

1) Give Gifts- I mean this is something I pretty much always do... but my parents usually just buy their gifts for themselves that are things I would pick out for them. This year I want to actually get them stuff they'll use and love because I have a job now... so I can get them stuff on my own!

2) Decorate My Room- I really want my room to be kind of decorated for Christmas. Right now my room is kind of a mess... but I think I could decorate it and it would look super cute. I just watched a few online DIY videos and things like that... so I kind of want to decorate it!

3) Craft- I work right next to a craft store right now... so I feel like that's going to make it a little more fun for me to be able to craft and decorate things for myself. I really want to make cards for everyone... I think that can be really fun and I just want to get better at crafting.

4) See Christmas Decorations in New York- I might have done this by the time I'm writing this blog... but as of writing this I'm going to see Santa at Macy's again with my parents, sister, niece, brother in law and his family... and I also want to see the decorations with my boyfriend. I'd like to see the window displays and everything and... I just think we'll have a fun time and it'll be really pretty and it's a cute date idea.

5) Decorate My Christmas Tree- One thing I really love about Christmas is decorating the Christmas Tree... actually this is one of the only things I really take seriously in life... so I need to decorate!!! We have a lot of ornaments- they all have memories with them too... and I just really love decorating my tree!

6) Have A Cozy Day Watching Christmas Movies- I usually watch Christmas Movies while decorating- but I think it might be kind of fun to just watch them on my day off or a day when I get home from work early... and I'll just have a nice cozy day!

7) Cook Something!- I sort of want to actually cook something for myself during the holidays... I'm not sure why- but my sister got my parents an Instant Pot last year... they don't use it a lot but I think I can use it and maybe make myself some soup to bring to work or something.

8) Bake Cookies- So I also want to bake some cookies for the holidays... I'm not sure what exactly I'll make... but I would kind of like to bake some cookies. I feel like that might be fun!

9) Go to an Ugly Sweater Party- My friend has an Ugly Sweater Party every year... I'm excited to go to it this year. I have a new ugly sweater dress... I think it'll be cute.

10) Vlogmas- Last year I posted on my youtube channel every day during december. I haven't posted on youtube in months... but I would really like to start it up again and I think Vlogmas might be a fun thing to do... it might just be beauty videos- maybe I'll have some actual vlogs... but I think I want to have something up Daily in December!

That is everything! I hope you guys like this list! I'll update you guys after the season to let you know what I did... or I'll do posts about the things themselves!

Bye!

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...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
