The things that made me happy this month are:

• Getting the St. Patrick's Day t-shirt I ordered from a favorite family YouTube channel
• Getting the March Ipsy bag
• Getting the water bottle and backpack bundle I ordered from another favorite family YouTube channel
• Seeing Black Panther in theaters
• Seeing A Wrinkle in Time in theaters, with co-workers
• Getting the St. Patrick's Day themed mug, and Easter egg from a favorite family YouTube channel

Overall, this was a pretty good month for me.

I am looking forward to seeing what April, and beyond, has in store for me!!

My Spring 2018 Bucket List

My Greatest Comforts

I am a painfully shy person, so there are things that bring me a lot of comfort, helping to get through each day.

These things help me connect to people, whom I otherwise wouldn't have the courage to talk to.

Or, they just help me relax after dealing with people.

• My favorite book(s)
• A journal and some pens
• My phone (the games, radio, and texting options it has on it)
• Hats that have brims that are wide/long enough to cover my eyes
• Baking
• Card, board, and video games
• My cats
• Walking in a park
• My favorite YouTubers
• Photography
• My favorite movies
• My favorite music
• Hoodies (during cold weather, of course)
• Being in my bedroom
