Countdown to Berlin: 15 DAYS!

As you may have been able to tell from the title of this post, I'm going to Berlin in just about 2 weeks! I'm incredibly excited. I've never been to Germany and after doing some research it seems like Berlin is a pretty cool city. I'm also excited about the opportunity to make new friends with the other people on my trip, and hopefully I'll be able to meet a lot of locals as well.

I emailed a guy who co-founded a social media company similar to Instagram this morning and asked him if he would like to be my subject for my photojournalism project and I'm really hoping he'll get back to me because he seems really interesting.

Recently I've been trying to figure out how to use this camera I got from the university so that I can practice taking photos for the trip, and so far I've actually managed pretty well for myself. However, I've discovered that cameras are actually kinda heavy.

I'm not really sure what to blog about, I'm not particularly good at this blogging thing. I want to blog each day on the trip so that I can remember what I did and where I visited, ate, shopped, etc. That's going to be my goal. I also really want to vlog the trip, so hopefully I can keep up with that. I think once I get into it then it shouldn't be too hard to remember. In preparation for the trip I'm going to try to blog each day leading up to it. Maybe. I can't guarantee this will go very well, especially seeing as I'm getting my wisdom teeth out tomorrow and I'm sort of a baby about that sort of thing and may not be in the mood. But I will try my hardest.

This post has been pretty random and scatterbrained but honestly that's just how my mind works most of the time so there's not much I can do about that. For now I'll leave you with an iconic landmark of Berlin, the Brandenburg gate. Hopefully I'll write again tomorrow!
