The Windy City

So I'm back to post more pics of the fun things we did while in Chicago!!! :)

while my dad made drive through St. Louis, my brother and mom stole my phone...

Giordano's Pizza!! (we loved it so much we ate there twice!)

there are two Prudential buildings in Chicago. an older guy i work with at the funeral home was one of the four to start the company!

this building is called AQUA. it was designed so that birds wouldn't fly into it and kill themselves.

Shedd Aquarium!

Jelly. Fish.

Navy Pier from the perspective of the city bus

at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, that is a million dollars in one dollar bills. and we got shredded money!

Our trip was really really fun! These are only the best pictures from my phone, but I still have more to come!

In other news, tomorrow, my family and karasyn and i are going to look at my great grandma's house in hopes of renting it! I might post more on that later, but I hope it all works out!!

thanks for reading!

My Kind of Town......Chicago Is!!

So this past week I have been in CHICAGO!!!! And I absolutely loved it!!!! I am so ready to just move there right now!! I love the hustle and bustle of the big city, the huge skyscrapers and most of all, I loved taking...... yes. Public transportation. It seems like the "bum" way to travel around here in the midwest where everybody owns a car, but I loved it. Once we got to out hotel, we didn't even really have to drive.  Our hotel had a shuttle that took us to the train station, where we rode about an hour to get into downtown Chicago, that is, unless we caught the express which cut the time in half!

After arriving at the train station, we walked half a mile to the Sears Tower (now known as Willis Tower). The first day we went up there and it was totally WICKED!!!! You could see for miles!!!

Well, I think that is all I'm going to post about today. I will post more throughout the week about all the fun things we did :)

Right now, my mom and I are working on some stupid financial aid thing for school. Yeah, I know! Don't you wish you were here! You're missing out on all the fun!! Also, we have five whole hours of Days of Our Lives to catch up on!!!!! YEAH!! :D

Happy Monday everyone!!!

My kind of town!!

sometimes...

i really want your statuses to be about me. or i really want you to talk to me, or acknowledge my existence. sometimes a simple, "hey :)" is all i need to brighten my day. i can't seem to get rid of this stupid feeling of inadequacy. 

at this point i just don't even care who you are, just come! i'm sick of waiting!

i thought i was over "you" but i'm not. too bad, so sad for me. 

why am i even posting anything on here? i'm so stupid! i just reread this and i sound like a doofus! 

hope this was worth the 2 minutes it took for you to read it! lol 

also, hope you are more successful in you "love life" than me! 

I'm getting really bad at this.

I have been skipping weeks at a time at blogging. Oh, well. I'm sure you're not too depressed about this. Anywho, the past week has been filled with some intense excursions including, but not limited to, thrift stores, garage sales, yummy food and sunburns. It's pretty much summer here in Springfield and I'm quite excited about getting tan. I can almost stand the hot. My summer school class starts tomorrow and I'm semi-nervous. Also, I have to work a few odd days this week, but I accepted the hours cause in two weeks I'm leaving for Chicago!! Woohoo!

This week I really want to visit Red Velvet for one of these!!!!!  I also am excited about Kelsey and I taking Karasyn to a secret place!! :) I want to post pictures of the cool things i found at the garage sales yesterday, but I can't figure out how to get them on here from my iPhone, therefor this post is going to be lame and boring. You'll get over it......hopefully.

Anyway, I hope everyone is enjoying their summer, 'cause now everyone is officially on summer break.

Thanks for reading!!!
