Annnnnd I'm Back From The BIM...


{First Stamp Ever In My Passport :)}


Insert Sad Face Here :(

Regardless of the close to 900 photos I took this week... 
No words can express how Ah- Mazing this trip was... I feel really blessed... I feel really humbled.
I feel rejuvenated in my love for Charles (Bring It On Year 6) ... 
Not quite sure where to begin with all the sharing of my various excursions/ experiences in Barbados.
The people, the food, the music, the culture, the poverty and wealth that go hand in hand... The Land.
My first trip abroad was a great learning experience.

On my plane ride back to the states, I was jotting down notes... 
And came to the conclusion that my trip will prolly  have to be broken down into 9 different posts 
that will probably span over these next 2-3 couple months.
That's alot of blogging I'm not quite sure I want to do right now. 
{I all of a sudden feel kinda blog lazy lol}.
Sooo I'm gonna let it cook for a while before you all get bombarded with a gazillion posts about Barbados.


I'm back at work today ... 
You know, because I'm "totally" back in the work mindset...
It's like a cold splash of water when you spend a week on a relaxing island where time is of no concern
And then come back home to hustle of NYC ...
Wish me luck for getting through this week ... I have alot of catching/keeping up to do.
Plus a fridge full of NO food, dirty laundry, and a gazillion emails to respond to...
Until then, here are pics I posted on Instagram from my trip!

{My fave pic of me and Charles from last week ... At St. Martin's Bay for their Fish Fry ... I ate SHARK!!!}

P.S. I managed to talk Charles into agreeing to write a post for the bloggity!!!
Can't wait to see what he puts together :)
He's still in Barbados for one more week, finishin up his study abroad trip and workin on his thesis.
Or as he's been calling it ... His EduVacation.
 {I was pretty much mooching off his trip haha}
Can't wait for him to get back this Friday!



Happy Monday!!!
At least TRY to be happy ;)

New follower here! Love your pictures. They have me dreaming of someplace warm and tropical, something our midwestern winter certainly is not.
