January/February/March Wrap-Up (Speed Round)

You might have noticed that I am not one, not two, but three wrap-ups behind. I miss blogging and I've been so swamped with school and other life stuff that catching up on monthly wrap-ups feels more overwhelming than it should, so to get these done so I can move on to other blog posts, we're going to do these wrap-ups "speed round" style.
