Packing for a 2 Day Trip June 2019

Hey guys! So I know I just talked about what we did on our 2 day trip- but here's what we packed! We bought a lot of stuff we didn't have for the trip- and some of the stuff we didn't use but we could still use it... it was like we didn't use everything we packed- but we didn't forget everything and we could have used it. We both kind of felt like we didn't overpack- but we also didn't underpack.

We bought a lot from discount stores. We both actually work at 2 different discount stores so we had a discount on top of the lower prices... so that was especially good. We got our bathing suits, sunscreen, his sunglasses, a floppy hat for me, some dressier clothes, reusable straws, and some socks from discount stores. We also went to the travel section of a drugstore called Harmon... which is basically half travel sized goods and half a regular drugstore and the travel section of Walmart. We probably didn't use all of this for the trip... but still it was good to have and the prices were so low. We didn't get a lot from Target... but we did get some beach towels.

We didn't really have a lot of the things we needed... which is why we went shopping. We didn't need to buy all new things... but it was kind of useful and easy to pack since everything was sealed and stuff.

My parents had a suitcase that was large... but it wasn't like the largest size for a suitcase. It was big enough for both of our stuff... plus we had room that it didn't get overstuffed. His mom actually gave us a big plastic bag so that we could put our dirty clothes in there so our clean clothes wouldn't get dirty. That made it easy for us when we got home so we could just put our dirty clothes in the laundry and our clean clothes could go back in our closets/dressers.

We packed some reusable tote bags and some backpacks also. He brought 2 backpacks and I brought one plus my handbag. It was pretty useful. It was nice to have beach stuff in the backpack and everything else packed away.

So... that was pretty much it! I know this probably isn't the best way to pack- but it worked for us and we were happy with what we packed. Aside from 1 hair product that didn't have a cap and leaked out in my toiletry bag... it wasn't too bad! I don't regret anything else!

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...

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...

September 2015: It List

Now that I do weekly favorites, I feel like these will be less surprising... but still. Some good things. 1) Pumpkin Spice Lattes- Its the most wonderful latte of the year! Lol. All the yes. Soooo much yes. Its so creamy and pumpkiny and delicious. It was what has been missing from my life for a long time and now its back and I think they get more and more delicious every year. And I know last year people were like "pumpkin spice isn't cool anymore." Have you had any? It is delicious!!!! I'm a big fan of the PSL. 2) Arrow- I've been wanting to watch this show for a while. The guy that plays Oliver is not only hot, but he was really funny and good on a talk show I saw him on... so that made me like "ohh I need to watch this." I'm also not super into comic books or anything, but I do like Batman and DC movies at least more than anything else and I didn't really realize that there were so many tv shows in the DC universe right now. There are a f...
