Things I'm Grateful in February.
February has been such an amazing month for me. January took forever to go by, but February felt like it flew! I normally make this series only three things, but so many fun and amazing things happened this month, that I couldn't help but add a few more items to this list!
I went to Dominican Republic
I haven't been to visit my family in years. I was so happy to go and spend time my grandmother and my aunts and uncle. The country has changed so much since I've last been there, so it was nice to get to know it all over again. I totally fell in love. I promise that it won't take 6 years to go back this time around. I'll probably back sometime this year.
Liberty Science Center After Dark
I've been dying to go to one of these event, but never had gone out of my way to go to one. For those of you that don't know the Liberty Science Center, is a science museum in the NY/NJ area that's especially meant for kids. About a year ago, they started this event on the third Thursday of every month where they have adult science events. They serve alcoholic drinks themed, they have some science exhibits, and it's just really fun.
This month my friend, Jill, asked me if I wanted to go, and I was ecstatic! The month the theme was Mardi Gras, so we bought necklaces, hair pieces, and masks, and went (sidenote: Jill actually bought everything for both of us). It was such a blast, I honestly can't wait to go to another one of these events in the future.
Romeo Santos
Now, if you don't know my family is Dominican (hence visiting my family when I went to the Dominican Republic). For whatever reason, I've never been to a latin concert! This month, my dad surprised our whole family with tickets to see Romeo Santos at Madison Square Garden.
It was such an amazing concert. He played music from his entire music career. What made it even better was the fact that there were so many great special guests! He brought in Daddy Yankee, Wisin y Yandel, and Ozuna. I literally danced and sang the whole night away. Thank dad! This is truly a concert I will never forget.
I am part of the Yelp Elite
I had a friend who worked with Yelp, and she told about how much fun the events are! She told me the only way I would be able to go to be part of the Yelp Elite. Now what is the Yelp Elite you ask? It's an exlusive group that Yelp has for their most active members. It took me a year of checking in, writing reviews, and posting pictures, but this month they finally accepted me!
I even went to two events. They're both so fun and I'm so happy to be a part of the Yelp Elite. Check if you have a Yelp Elite squad in your area! I promise you it's so worth it.
What are you grateful for in the month of February? Let me know in the comments below! I hope you guys have a wonderful day/night. Sending you all love, strength and positivity.

Oh you had such a great month. I would love to go visit the Dominican Republic.
I really did have an amazing month! Thank you so much for reading and commenting! I really love Dominican Republic (I know, I'm a bit Biased), but you should definitely go when you get the chance! It's much more reasonably priced compared to other countries 🙂 xxx
Oh wow.. Feb is already over! Simply loved your post...this is the second post I read today reminding to appreciate people or thing you love❤️👆
I know, February passed so quickly! I can't believe it's over already! Thanks so much! I'm glad it reminded you to appreciate the good in your life! Happy March:) xxx
Why is Yelp not a thing in Australia! It sounds like you've had an incredible month with lots to be thankful for!
Yelp isn't over there yet? You can start adding locations yourself if the app's available! You'll be ahead of the game in case they start an elite team! Thanks so much for reading and commenting love 🙂 xx
I can't believe February is over, I have never been to Dominican republic but I hope to one day.
It's beautiful over there, and not expensive compared to some other tropical getaways! I really recommend it ! Thanks for reading and commenting 🙂 xxx

I'm so happy for you that you were able to go back to the Dominican! It's so beautiful there and even better with family!
Our science centre here has an adults only night once a month too! I've never been but now I want to check it out.
I'm telling you it was so much fun and I would also like to know how yours is! I hope you go 🙂 xxx
One day I will! I think they call the theme nights "dark matter". Oh so mysterious!
