Apologies

Hi guys! Sorry I am literally the worst blogger ever! I have so many things I want to post but I am literally drowning in school and life and have very little time for myself. 

As I type this on my phone I am on my way to the airport for the trip I have been talking about so I will definitely have a post for each day when I get back! Posting everyday on here would be very tedious and I wouldn't have all my photos to share so it'll be worth the wait, I promise!

As for some life updates, I got my hair cut for the first time in quite a while. I didn't get much length off but it's much easier to deal with and I quite like it. I took before and after photos so I will be sure to share those with you later!

I also had my 22nd birthday last month. I didn't do anything too exciting but my friends and family spoiled me so I'll be sure to post all about that as well!

I also received some very exciting news on the day before my birthday. I have been named the valedictorian of my graduating class! Unfortunately this means I have to speak at comencement which, for someone with my fear of public speaking, is terrifying. However, I am trying not to think about that until I get back from my trip.

For those of your who read my blog, thank you for sticking with me. I'll be better at this someday! You'll be hearing from me soon!

xx,

Caitlin

P.s. This was supposed to post over a week ago and I just now realized it never posted.... Sorry! I will be making the promised updates starting a little later in the week!

There is no better word to describe how I've been feeling recently. As the date of my first international trip approaches I am getting more and more excited and reflecting on the traveling opportunities that I have already been blessed with. In fourth grade I lived every kid's dream and got to go to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. My eighth grade year, I was selected to go on a trip to the Grand Canyon. I've been lucky enough to see Washington D.C. a couple of times, as well as a small bit of the Vegas strip. I've been to Ohio and Cedar Point. I've stayed on Long Beach Island, New Jersey and seen Atlantic City. I've been so lucky to have traveled to all the places I have. I will never regret traveling, however I will always look back and kick myself for not taking enough pictures. The places I went as a child are very faint in my memory and I would love to be able to look back on photos and attach memories to them. I'm vowing that, when I travel in March, I will take enough photos that I will be able to remember even the smallest details of my trip. 

On that note, I would like to share some of the (pretty crappy quality) photos I took during my trip to the Grand Canyon! They may have been taken with an old digital camera, but I feel that even that cannot take away from beautiful Arizona.
