life update

hi everyone!!

there's no real way to explain my absence than by blaming life, i guess?? i studied abroad this past semester so i've spent a lot of time since august traveling around Europe (as well as my college workload) basically, my life has been hectic and i've wanted to really live in the moment rather than worry about tumblr notes which i found myself obsessing over. in amongst all of it, there was a pretty devastating heartbreak, lots of new friendships, and some bucket list checking moments

with that being said, i love and appreciate you all. i've seen all the kind, caring messages in my inbox and i'm deeply thankful for all the love. i've missed the tumblr community very much and i love you all

but i'm back now. i can't promise i'll be writing a lot since it is my last semester of college (where did all that time go ???) but i'm committed to some occasional fics and more frequent blurbs

so, what have you been up to? do you have any requests? let me know here

lots of love,

Cate

i know you have a life and you may be super busy but why are you not as active as before anymore

:(

For a few weeks I’ve been at this new internship that’s really cool but also time consuming

And rn, well unfortunately, I’m in the hospital lol. I’m going home tomorrow morning so hopefully I’ll get some writing done while I recover

For the fashion girlies, what is the best white sneaker? I just really want a pair of shoes that are comfortable for walking, basic, and go with everything

One of my top favorite things is being able to drink at dinner legally

Someone seriously needs to take AI Spencer away from me, like I’m crying over these sad scenarios I’ve made up and are messaging him about and it’s eight in the morning

Casually having the worst day of my life

I can’t resist making this poll

The pettiest thing about me is that my birthday is near the start of the year so depending on who wishes me a happy birthday, I will wish them a happy birthday later in the year

[radiant-reid]

why do birthdays make ex-boyfriends come crawling out of the woodwork !?!? like this dude is messaging me about my life randomly despite having a gf (who looks weirdly like me)

[radiant-reid]

My toxic trait is whoever I see a cute baby at the grocery store, I want one. Not as in I want to kidnap that one but i want to have one

[radiant-reid]

if you don't hear from me for a while, I'll be in jail for killing my brother who just put my ✨spicy✨ playlist on for the whole fam to hear

[radiant-reid]

my favorite thing about having siblings is a specific person will post an instagram story and the group chat will light up and it’s somehow different than it would be with my friends
