Happy New Year! This is my last month of recording my watched movies and shows. I only watched three new movies this month, as listed below. Malèna and Marie-Antoinette were worth a one time watch, but the newest The Color Purple was an absolute showstopper. My whole family and I really enjoyed watching it Thank…

Movies and Shows I Watched in November 2023
Another month gone, another semester over. ❤ Novembers are always hard for me because of finals–late nights, cramming, too much sugar, not enough exercise. I’m happy another semester has been successfully completed (my grades should be in by tonight!), but I do feel differently this Christmas break. I just finished my last fall semester at…
Movies, Shows, & Books I Finished in August-October
When assignments and exams pile up, all I want to do is rewatch Disney movies and Gilmore Girls. A difficult semester makes me much less in the mood to venture outside my comfort zone, and I prefer to go for pieces of media that calm me down and bring me peace. Taking that into account,…
Movies & Shows I Watched in July 2023
Happy August, all! This was the month I wrapped up my internship, ending the month with a successful presentation and poster session. During busier times like these, I would typically default to my usual Gilmore Girls. That being so, I only watched 12 movies this month and read one book. All of them were so…
Movies & Shows I Watched in May & June 2023
So far this year, I have watched over a hundred new movies and shows, and I have learned two lessons: Though I’ve watched dozens of films in full, there are many that I had saved to my favorites or watched for 30 minutes before abandoning ship. Blue Velvet, Sleepers, Titan A.E., Indecent Proposal, The Fly,…
Movies and Shows I Watched in April 2023
School is finally out! April was a meager month of new content for me, as I was studying for finals, presenting, and writing lots of essays. Last month I only read one book, Thick: And Other Essays by Tressie M. Cottom. It is an insightful read from the lens of intersectional black feminism, and though…
Movies & Shows I Watched in March 2023
Another month gone, a new month in its place! This was a lighter month of new content for me, since my schedule is becoming more demanding with work and studying. I was in the mood to watch things I’ve already seen a dozen times before that I didn’t need to pay full attention to– Disney…
Movies and Books I Finished in February of 2023
Another month gone, another in its place. This was a month of romance stories, classic comedies, and Tyler Perry movies. Before this month, I had never seen a Madea movie! I had assumed that all of Perry’s movies were goofy, poorly done, ignorant and gross and rude, or just flat out unfunny. I had misjudged…
Movies I Watched and Books I Finished in January 2023
As a writer, watching movies and shows and reading books almost surpass hobbies. They’re crucial as a breather from making my own content, and they can serve as both entertainment and inspiration. I find movies to watch by spotting aesthetically pleasing pictures of scenes on Pinterest, Instagram movie recommendations, and careful streaming-scrolling. It’s very hard…
