Me, Myself and I

Hello everyone. My name is Kaitlyn Bendlin and I am a senior in my last semester here at Binghamton! I'm a double degree student in the anthropology and human development programs. My plan for after Binghamton is to go for my masters in speech pathology, but first I need to do a year of necessary prerequisite work so I decided that I’m going to move out to Portland, Oregon for a year to experience a new place while I take the classes I need to apply to grad school. I’m excited to see what the other side of the country is like. I’ve heard it’s beautiful and quite different than life on the East coast!

When I’m not doing school work I work as a lifeguard and swimming instructor. When I’m not working I love listening to and seeking out new musicians (Pandora is usually playing on my computer), watching movies (especially independent films and documentaries), writing, playing basketball and doing anything outdoors. I’m going skydiving in May in celebration of graduating and I can’t wait! I have a new found love of running and I’m actually in the beginning stages of training for a half marathon in May. Because of my training I’ve also picked up healthy cooking and baking, which, by the way, is actually pretty delicious.

I’m taking this class because it compliments my other course work really well and because it’s so relative to our generation. If we're living it, we might as well be studying it too.I think this is going to be a great class and I’m looking forward to reading the blogs. I hope everyone has an overall awesome semester!
