Hello April & Goodbye March!

The first week of March was busy my little sister came all the way from Michigan and spent the week with me for her spring break. We went out almost every day exploring the city. Even though it was tiring It was nice to get a break from my daily routine and do something different. Then after she left I went into overdrive working on cosplays for Planet Comicon. I managed to get all of them done ahead of schedule. And since I had some free time I took on my reading challenge and was able to read 1 book and start another. So here’s my wrap-up of March.
