March Favorites

Written by Kyla Kwan

March was a month of trials for me but these are the events that define our true strength. Aside from the triumphant events, this month was filled with new experiences. I celebrated my birthday, met new people, and reconnected with old friends.

TO WATCH:

Before We Go - Nothing's better than cuddling into your bed on a Friday night to watch a sappy movie that somehow gets you in the feels only to be fooled. I honestly enjoyed this movie because I every single thing that I thought would happen, actually didn't. And if it were to happen the way I envisioned it, it would've became a tacky love story that everyone hates.

Earthlings - A friend of mine recently changed his eating habits as a result from viewing this film. Following a discussion regarding the film, I decided to watch it myself. All I can really say is that it's such an eyeopening documentary that will have you reconsidering your eating habits. 

TO WEAR:

Button Up Skirts - I am totally loving that they're finally going back in trend! They totally add a sassy but girly look to your outfit.

Loose Fitted Tees - They were a major purchase of mine this month. T-shirts are so great; there's so many ways to were them. The even greater part is that it takes minimal effort to dress t-shirts up.

Bralettes - I don't know why it took me so long to finally invest in these bad boys. I can definitely understand the hype behind them.

TO EAT:

Acai Bowls - Always a classic. I have such a sweet tooth so I definitely enjoy munching on acai bowls. PRO TIP-creating your own acai bowls and topping it with delicious fruits to munch on while watching a film in bed is a must.

Hummus & Carrots - Hummus will forever be a favorite of mine. I used to snack on hummus and pita chips but I recently rediscovered dipping carrots in hummus and it was no mistake.

Lara Bars - My personal favorite is Cashew Cookie. Lara Bars are great for when you're on the go, and they are super filling. To top it off, they're vegan!

OTHER:

Spontaneous drives - I did not necessarily go anywhere this month which is depressing but I did a lot of "Let's go for a drive and see where we end up!" drives - which are one of my favorites. Nothing is better than driving around with your best buds, jamming to music, or talking, or simply enjoying each other's company.

Essential oils - Forever my holy grail. I go to essential oils for everything. Lavender is my favorite when helping me sleep. 

Hanging out with new people - Although, hanging out with new people is always advisable, I did a lot of it this month. It's cool to see how different groups of friends hang out and finding new ways to connect with people.
