Happy October lovelies!
My favourite month of the year has rolled in and I am in total autumnal bliss as the colder temperatures and coloured leaves are moving in. How September passed by so quickly, I truly have no idea.
I usually whip together a monthly favourites post at the end of each month, but I honestly have not tried enough products to write a decently long blog post, so I figured I'd try something different. Just a quick look-back at the highlights of my month;
I baked my first rainbow cake!
I baked a rainbow cake for my sisters birthday this year and it was such a fun experience! The best part is the anticipation of seeing what it'll look like once its cut!
I took the first step to getting help with my anxiety
This month I finally spoke to my doctor about what I can do to get help for my anxiety and panic attacks. I've been considering talking to someone about it for so long now and it was honestly relieving to finally do it. I made an appointment to see a psychologist once a week to try and manage them better and I'm really hopeful that this will make a big change in my life!
I did well on my first nursing test of the semester
I'm really proud of myself on this one! It was the first time in a while that I walked in to a test feeling totally ready and I did really well! I'm really happy about it and I'm hoping I can keep this up for the next test.
I spent quality time with my boyfriend
As soon as the school year starts, our free time diminishes so much and finding the time to just enjoy each others company and relax seems to become harder and harder. We did have some opportunities this month to just spend some quality time together and I'm really happy about that. Even if it was just sitting by the lake, watching some TV together or having some cuddle time, I feel like it's the little things like this that bring relationships closer.
I met a pug!
Okay so anyone that knows me knows I have a serious addiction with pugs. I got to spend some time with a family friends' pug and I was seriously overjoyed. I may or may not have taken an obnoxious amounts of photos and sent them to all my friends...
I'm doing more little things to make myself happier during the day
I've been working a lot harder on being kind to myself and loving myself and one thing I've been doing to move towards this is to do little things to bring a little more happiness to my day. Whether it's doing something nice for someone else, allowing myself that extra piece of cake or listening to a funny podcast to bring a smile on my face when I'm feeling down, I've just been making a conscious effort to be a happier person and to not to be so hard on myself.
What were the highlights of your month?
Let me know in the comments!!

PS: Highlight of the first few days of October so far: I found out that Nyx products are now going to be sold in Canada! No more stockpiling every time I go on road trips in the US. Yessssssssssssss! :)
