1. A Nice Glass of Wine

Ever since turning 21, I've grown a strong appreciation for sitting down with my mom and dad and drinking a nice glass of wine.

2. Sunsets

I've grown up watching a sunset every evening. Going to college somewhere that doesn't have an ocean view makes me thankful for the moments I get to watch the sky turn to beautiful pastel colors.

3. A Home-cooked Meal

Is there anything better after eating college food?

4. A Good Cup of Coffee

Some of my friends call me the "latte art enthusiast." What can I say, I love my lattes!

5. Sitting By Warm Fires

One of the best feelings is cozying up in a blanket next to the warm fire with a yummy drink in your hand.

6. Quality Time With The People I Love

Spending some good quality time with the people you love is what life is all about.

I love the entire year. Well, for the most part. I'm not a big fan of Winter, but even then, every month has something that's pretty great. November? Thanksgiving. December? Winter Holidays. January? New Year's. February? Valentine's and Single Awareness Day. May? Existential dread during finals. But for me, March has always been my favorite month of the year, and for good reason.
