Things I Watched
- P.S. I Still Love You – fairly cute but not that deep tbqh
- The Half of It – actually as good as everyone says 😭
- Sword Art Online The Movie: Ordinal Scale – truly an “I was scrolling through Hulu and bored” moment, but it was nice and nostalgic since I haven’t watched SAO since, like, middle school
This Month’s Highlights
- Final exams; the semester finally over and done 🎉
- Book Con — I’d planned to check it out, but my sleep schedule is such a disaster that I pretty much slept through all the events 😅
