Movie Monday: 10 Movies That Make Me Happy

Alright guys! It's movie Monday and... I didn't watch any movies this week... so I'll talk about some movies that I've seen recently or semi recently that made me happy. 

1) Mirai- I need to do a full review of this on my other blog (The Cozy Princess)... but this was just a super cute movie that was just really beautiful and it will make you laugh and cry and it might make you nostalgic too. This is a Japanese Animation movie- I guess it's animae style but it's just a nice slice of life movie told from the perspective of a young boy who just recently became a big brother- and his sister's name is Mirai which means future- and we meet Mirai from the future too... and it's just a really nice movie that I think would cheer anyone up. 

2) The Art of Racing in The Rain- This is such a sweet movie. I've already done a review on this- but it's about a man's relationship with his dog and it's his life told from the dog's perspective... and it is very cute and sweet. I loved it and I really want to watch that one again! 

3) Poms- I did a review of this one too- but this is one that I wasn't expecting to like and I just tivoed it so that my mom could see it... but it was really sweet and it made me cry. It's not the best movie in the world- but if you want to laugh and smile this is a cute movie to watch. 

4) Crazy Rich Asians- Am I cheating by picking all movies I reviewed recently? Possibly... but this movie did really make me happy. I ended up watching it 3 times in one week and honestly- I'm not sick of it! I could still watch it again and again! It's a really good one! 

5) Always Be My Maybe- So this I also reviewed... and I was reminded of it because it stars Constance Wu from Crazy Rich Asian's tv husband from when she was on Fresh Off The Boat! Randall Park and Ali Wong are adorable in this movie and I feel like I have an extra connection to it because my boyfriend and I watched it while we were on vacation last year... and I miss that a lot. 

6) 10 Things I Hate About You- I watch this movie all the time when it's on! It is one of my favorite movies and I just never really get sick of it. It's really cute and kind of underrated in the grand scheme of things lol. 

7) My Big Fat Greek Wedding- This can't be a list without My Big Fat Greek Wedding. This is one of my favorite movies ever and again- I always watch it when it's on! It hasn't been on as much lately- but it's so good! And I got my boyfriend to like it too- so double win for that! Lol. 

8) Home Alone- I can't believe I almost finished writing this list without one of my favorite movies... actually I'm including Home Alone 2 in this also because Home Alone 2 is my real favorite. Idk why- but this year I just kind of became obsessed with the first 2 Home Alone movies... and I still think they're really funny and cute. 

9) Addams Family Values- This is another one of those movies I can't believe I almost forgot about... this is such a funny movie that once again... I ALWAYS watch. Joan Cusack is sooo funny in this movie- she's the best part! Except for everything else in the movie because it's perfect! 

10) Despicable Me and Minions- I was kind of trying not to include cartoons in this one because... for the most part all cartoons make me happy (not The Queen's Corgi...) But I can't not have Despicable Me on the list! This is the #1 movie that cheered me up in college when I was getting stressed out. And honestly- it's still the #1 movie that's cheered me up through everything. Pretty much all of these movies have come out at an important time in my life and I just really like them. 

Anyway that is it for the week! Hope you guys like this list! 

Bye!

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
