Summer time

This picture remind me so much of summer!! I took it this summer when a few friends and I went on a picnic by a lake behind my house. We had a lot of fun trying to throw the biggest rocks we could find just right, and pressing the shutter button just so to get this shot!! This is one of many, and is one of the most succesful  :-P

But summer is the exact opposite of my life right now!! Summer is a time of relaxation, and no stress to speak of.  Currently, we are super busy trying to move!! so there is lots of packing and cleaning going on. But my family has lived here for 18 years... you know what that means, lots of dirt and grime! One of my best friend's mom might have pancreatic cancer. Her first biopsy came out inconclusive, so she's going in for another (PRAY!!!). Another good friend of mine is feeling super isolated, and isnt sure if she believes in God anymore... she's going through a lot right now. And im trying not to kill anyone due to my extreme lack of patience as I try to balance my schedule... I am taking wayyy to much extra-curricular stuff!!  Suggestions for how to survive please?!?!!!
So pray. Pray not just for me, but as hard as you can for my friends mom and the rest of her family, my other friend, and my mom (who is super stressed about moving).

Wow, my next entry had better be happier than this, or no one will read it anymore!!  :-P

PS did I mention I LOVE this picture?  God Bless :-D

Picture time!

Time for a picture! Hope you like it  :-) Yes, its uber pixely, but its not like that on my computer! I blame blogger  :-P thats why its so big, to cut out the awful pixely-ness. Tell me what you think!

Today I went to Bard on the Beach, it was awesome!! I got to meet some friends from school (I'm homeschooled online through correspondance, so we dont get to see each other a lot!), and we went to see 'Henry V'. It was super fun  :-D

But the drive home was cool too. We drove past a house with a girl sitting on the cement steps leading from the road to her yard, playing her guitar and singing away. It was very cool! I thought it was awesome how she felt free to be herself, even in front of countless people driving by on such a busy road! It was kind of inspiring  :-)

I bid you adieu,

The Beginning

Hi!
Seeing as this is my first blog, I'll start off by explaining why I'm writing one...
Reason #1 - Just like some girls love to journal, so do I! But I hate writing with all my heart, I much prefer typing
Reason #2 - I can use blogger to show the world my pictures, and see what you all think of them
My blog title explains what you'll probably find in this blog - a bit of everything. My thoughts, my aspirations, the dream I had last night (it was weird...), but mostly my photos. I am really into my photography and I want to get a whole lot better at it, and you can help me by telling me what you liked and what you thought I could do better. Please feel free to!
Until next time,
~ Caitlin
