Chicago!


Thirteen and a half hours after setting off from the great state of Connecticut, Alisha and I arrived in the Windy City. The trip was great...I loved driving cross-country...did you know that the speed limit in Indiana is 70mph? I freakin' love Indiana! That was just one of the many highlights. There are pictures to come but my computer is being weird so those will have to come in a later blog.
Even though there was a bit of loopiness due to lack of sleep I thought it would be a good idea to go to the House of Blues on that first night. It was fun...I did fall asleep...and the El...and practically slept walked home...but hey, go big or go home, right?
As for Chicago...I'm not going to lie, it still all feels like a dream. Here I am taking this leap of faith, but it feels more like a random road trip then a move. Although, I signed my lease today so that is pretty permanent...I guess it will take a while before it feels like home...probs after I get a job!
I am excited to dive into the multicultural neighborhood, explore the city, and enjoy the Lake. While I might be freaking out a little, I also rest assured on the fact that I don't need to have it all together. So until next time...
