Blogmas Day 8: Christmas Movie Bucket List

Since I already did the Christmas Bucket List... here's a list of Christmas Movies I want to make sure I watch this year!

1) Merry Christmas Charlie Brown- 

This is always what I like to see first at Christmas time. It just gets me in the holiday spirit and I just like the message of the Peanuts Gang learning what Christmas is all about. It also shows Charlie brown getting kind of sad when everyone else is happy for Christmas because Charlie Brown wants something more than just decorations and presents. It's super cute and one I always have to watch. I did kind of watch it already... but I need to watch it again for sure. I was setting up my new phone at the same time.

2) How The Grinch Stole Christmas- Cartoon Version 

I really love this one. I did see most of this movie recently... but again- I was also on the phone and stuff... I just got the DVD recently and I'm excited to watch it again and again now instead of just when it's on TV. I also bought the Jim Carey version of the movie... but I don't think that's going to be a priority movie for me this year... I'll try to watch it... but there's a lot I'd like to see.

3) Muppet Christmas Carol 
I love this movie. It is my favorite Christmas Carol... I know I have the DVD somewhere... but I just repurchased it because I can't go without seeing it this year. I like the movie too much!

4) Mickey's Christmas Carol 
I did just watch the Duck Tales Christmas Special... so I thought this would be a fun one to watch sometime soon. I like watching this with the Snowed In At The House of Mouse Special. It's cute. I love it.

5) Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer- 
Usually I try to watch this one early on too... but I haven't watched it just yet. I have it recorded though and I'm excited to watch it.

Some Honorable Mentions: I need to watch The Santa Clause 3 all the way through. I watched The Santa Clause last year and I love The Santa Clause 2... so this year it'll be Santa Clause 3's year... and I actually like it because I like Martin Short more than I used to and it's got a good message if you're a little tired of the "Buy this buy that" of the holidays.

I also want to watch some of my favorite rom coms that I used to watch every year... but idk if I've seen them in a while. The Holiday and Love Actually are the 2 I'm going to watch sometime this season. Maybe tomorrow.

Also sorry... today is December 10th and this is Blogmas Day 8... I was in New York on Friday and I've been sort of in recovery during the weekend... but also working which is hard this time of year. I'm going to try to be more on my game the rest of the month. Maybe I'll do a little more today and tomorrow.

Bye!

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...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...
