In my opinion, March has felt like four months long, at the very least. In other words, it has been the world’s longest month so I’m pretty happy to get to the end of it. Maybe, it is because this week is my spring break, which I’m super happy about. Of course, I fear that the next couple of months will be even slower. So, my plan is to appreciate this week, including the Duran Duran events that happened over the years during this time.
