What better way to start this blog off than to introduce myself?
My name is Caitie and, after reading blogpost upon blogpost for the last 4 years, wishing that I could join in the fun, here I am! I hope you enjoy my little corner of the internet!

Let’s get better acquainted by starting off with a little game of 20 questions...or...seeing as though there is nobody to ASK me the questions, I just tell you 20 facts about me. Good? Good.
 
1. Ok, Basics. I am 19 years old, a Uni Student (well, as of February this year, anyway), and live in the Blue Mountains, Sydney, Australia.

2. I live with my Mum, Dad, and two little sisters (12 +16).

3. I have never set foot on a plane before; however, I hope to change that more than once this year!

4. I am a memory hoarder. I keep absolutely anything that has sentimental value. *glances across to my shelf which holds boxes of notes from primary school…

5. I LOVE activities that get the adrenaline pumping.

6. I have never met anyone who dreams as vividly as me. I can almost always remember my dreams, even years later (I will randomly remember dreams I had when I was a kid). I can mostly control them too.

7. I am an incredibly deep thinker and I love people who are not scared to talk about controversial topics (whilst being respectful of others opinions and beliefs). I always seem to broach really personal subjects with new people very quickly.

8. I love food. I am quite picky with what I eat but when I decide that I enjoy something, I LOVE it.

9. I am an incredibly emotional person. I will cry at the drop of the hat and find it really difficult to control what I'm feeling.

10. My boyfriend and I have been together since we were 13. He is my absolute best friend.

11. I love the nature around where I live. We constantly have all sorts of wildlife in our little backyard and just a short bushwalk away, there are all sort of cliffs, waterfalls, lookouts and things to see.

12. I have always been either told that I am exactly like a kid, or I am incredibly mature, it depends who you ask. And If you ask the people closest to me, I think they would say I am both.

13. I was quite badly bullied in high school and as hard as it was, it has changed me for the better in a hundred different ways.

14. I get very shy when I first meet new people, mainly because I am so concerned that people won’t like me.

15. I am a Christian, and love the impact that God has made on my life. I have experienced the power of God many times and am in awe to think that no matter what happens, I am indescribably loved.

16. I am a HUGE procrastinator.

17. I love interesting facts. I got a little 'pocket pals-interesting facts' book for my 10th birthday and I’ve been hooked ever since. Now I can't remember what it was like to go through life without the quintessential knowledge that cockroaches can live up to several weeks with its head cut off (I know...those things are even more terrifying than we thought!).

18. I have an absolutely huge imagination, I constantly make up games to make daily life a little more interesting.

19. I LOVE games. Any game. Board, card, word, you name it. I am super competitive and I may or may not have sustained substantial injuries over a game of 'spoons' (victory injuries I might add...) 

20. I am very nosy, and love to know about people’s lives. I love to surprise my friends by remembering little things about them (views on life, childhood memories they have told me over the years etc.).
