Birthday Month
I had an amazing month of March and I am ready to jump into the April reset.
Highlights of the Month
My Birthday
Hi babes, I’m 26 years old and feeling really good. I had a feeling March wouldn’t disappoint, and it didn’t. Somehow, it helped me find my rhythm again and come back to myself in the best way.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s my birthday month, but March has always felt like the real beginning of the year for me. January and February can feel like this rush to be perfect, to reach every goal all at once, and it ends up creating so much pressure. By the time March arrives, I’ve usually softened into the year a little more. I can finally see what I actually want the rest of my year to look like and how I want to move through it.
I’m also so thankful for all the birthday wishes and kind thoughts I received. They meant more to me than I can fully explain. This has truly been a beautiful month maybe even because I decided I wasn’t going to let my birthday month go badly this year. I claimed it, and somehow, it showed up for me in return.
Now, as much as I don’t want to leave March, I know it’s time. As I reset for April, I’m not asking for perfection. I’m just hoping for another good month, steady and full of small moments that remind me I’m moving in the right direction. April doesn’t have to be dramatic to be meaningful. It just has to keep the story going.
There is still no cure for the common Birthday
This month gave me a break
Smile, It’s your month
March Review
What I did this Month:
Dinner with Friends
Joined a Kickball League
St Patty’s Bar Crawl
Friday Weekend
Recovered Financially and Mentally
Honestly, a big thank-you to March for reminding me that maybe this year doesn’t have to be absolutely tragic after all. It felt like a quiet turning point like the beginning of a redemption arc where things can shift, soften, and still grow into a genuinely good year.
My March Reading List
I didn’t expect to read any books this month because it hasn’t really been a trend for me over the past few months. By the end of March, I still managed to finish one manga and two book.
Heated Rivalry
I started reading this book in February and was really excited about it, but I originally bought it digitally and just couldn’t get into it that way. Once I picked up a physical copy, I finished it in two days.
The Darwin Incident
I read The Darwin Incident in three days, and I absolutely loved it. It was a birthday gift from my friend as part of a Blind Date with Manga duo, and now I’m already planning to buy the next volumes.
The Long Game
I thought I was done. Then March 24th, I started The long game and finished it March 26th. I was not messing around. I absolutely love this and it gives me knowledge of what will happen in season 2 of Heated Rivalry.
March’s WatchList
I had the pleasure of watching several series this month. Many were comforting rewatches, but I also followed along with a few that were releasing new episodes. Series reviews coming soon
Heading into April
Going into April, I’m trying not to place heavy expectations on the month. I don’t feel the need to demand something big from it.
At the beginning of March, I found myself almost begging for a little peace and happiness. I just wanted the month to hold more good than bad. I had reached a point where I knew I couldn’t keep carrying things the same way, but I also knew I wasn’t ready to give up.
So for April, I’m choosing to keep fighting for small, happy moments and to stay open to whatever the month brings. I’ve set a few goals, and this feels like the right time to start focusing on them with intention.
March felt like a realignment. A bounce back. A return to myself. April feels different. April feels like the beginning of steady, thoughtful progress forward.
