YouTube, Flowers, and Easter Songs {a look back at March}

March is over, and I... feel better about it than I have about past months...

HAPPY EASTER, YOU LOVELY PEOPLE



He is risen indeed :D

((and yes, I'm posting this a couple of days late but you can celebrate Resurrection Day all year round soooo))

So March.  It went by rather quickly, and to be honest, I spent most of the month really tired, but I got a lot done by ignoring sleep, lol. 

Some things that happened this month include:
~ I read a lot and I wrote a lot and I spent a lot of time at Disney World and with my family.
~ I found some cool plot twists for my story and my characters finally gave up more information that I needed so I'm happy with that.
~ Also on the writing front, I wrote [slash edited] all of the narrations for our church's Easter musical program and I can't tell you how happy I was when I finished.  (kind of surprisingly, it's hard to find different things to say about the cross when 11 songs have a similar theme -.-)  But I'm really proud of them and I think they came out pretty good. :D
~ Speaking of the Easter program, I sang in five songs and danced in one and ran a video on two songs and all of this to say, I tried to do everything I could with the gifts God gave me.  I feel blessed (and also tired... but really blessed)
~ And the big news of the month: MY SISTER AND I STARTED A YOUTUBE CHANNEL!  *confetti fanfare*  It's mostly about Disney, but we post vlogs and other fun stuff and it's mainly just us being dorks and having a grand old time.  So if you'd like to check it out, here's the link!

~ What I Read ~

(click on the collage for a link to the Goodreads shelf where you can see further reviews of all of these books :D)
~ The Lost Hero ~  This was the only Riordan book I got through this month *winces*  But I really loved rereading this and I've missed Jason, Piper, and Leo.  {5 stars}
~ The Story of Doctor Dolittle ~  I enjoyed reading the source material behind the musical (which I've loved for a long time).  It wasn't my favorite, but it was still fun.  {4 stars}
~ Dissemble ~  Oh my word, I adored this book.  I need book 3 asap, please.  {5 STARS}
~ As Easy as Riding a Bike ~  Adorable, heart-warming, fluffy, and comfortable, this felt like a Hallmark movie in a book and Bell's books have captured my heart.  I loved it.  {5 stars}
~ The Night Gardener ~  This book freaked me out in the best way.  Probably should have saved it for Halloween, but I couldn't put it down.  {5 stars}
~ Bound ~  I really loved this book!  Such a powerful story.  {4.5 stars}
~ Greetings from Nowhere ~  This had the potential to be a new favorite but unfortunately fell a little short for me.  Still an enjoyable, super fast read, though.  {4 stars}

~ What I Watched ~ 

Bull:

(yes, he is talking about a child xD)  This showwww.  all the feeeeels.  ahhhhhh.

The Greatest Showman:

I FINALLY SAW IT.  I wasn't one of my favorites, but it was still really really fun and the songs have pretty solidly been stuck in my head since I saw it.  (And none of my family has seen it so... it's kind of awkward singing it around them, lol)

Black Panther:

yes hello i love my son T'Challa and my daughter Shuri and I cannot wait for Infinity War.

~ What I Listened To ~

So many wonderful Broadway-related things came out, obviously I listened to The Greatest Showman soundtrack a lot, I watched a few other movie musicals, and overall just had a great music month.

~ What I Posted ~ 

Thoughts on the Psalms  {about some of the things God has been showing me}
My Life in Books {book tag}  {about some of my old favorite books}

And with that, three months of the year are over!  Wow...
So who's doing Camp NaNo this month?  I'm going to attempt it, we'll see how it goes.  Let me know in the comments if you'll be participating!
