The past week

I have been pretty busy so haven't written in a while. Heather came to visit last weekend which was so much fun! We went and explored Chinatown which has a bunch of cool shops and restaurants. We shared fried rice and crab rangoon and we each got these super sweet fruit smoothies that we thought were the best things ever but then were way too sweet. ;)

I bought some cool paper lanterns too.

We also went and walked around Millennium Park and did some shopping at some discount stores on State Street. And we had amazing Lucky's before just hanging out with some wine and homemade chocolate dipped cherries and pretzels. YUM.

Walking through Wrigleyville made me realize that I have it pretty good. I don't feel the need to go drink and party every night and hang out with people making crude and sexual comments all night to have a good time. Now I know not everyone there does that every night and has those kind of issues, but let's face it--a lot of them do. And that's just kind of sad.

Anyway, Heather and I had a blast. The rest of y'all need to visit. Now, back to homework, maybe. I'll tell you about the rest of the week later.
