It's official- I'm a Chicago resident again. I took a little break with the last month being a whirlwind of figuring out logistics, packing, apartment hunting, working, job searching... etc etc etc. It was a busy one! But now I am officially settled in Chicago, and hoping to button up the job side of things in the very near future!
I'm living in Wicker Park, so I am really excited to be seeing a whole other side of the city from when I was living here in the fall. Our first week was full of lots of "touristy" things that I always wanted to do and never got around to. I'm very grateful to have roommates who are interested in taking advantage of everything this city has to offer! Here are some pictures from the first week:
On our way out for some city exploration and a Chicago Film Tour
...Did I mention the film tour was BYOB?
One of the film tour locations: where John Dillinger was killed & Public Enemies was filmed
A stop at the Hershey Store by the Water Tower for dessert- YUM!
Architectural Boat Tour
Zombies Vs. Skeletons at Cobra Lounge
The CUTEST bathroom at The Bedford, just a few blocks from us
Gino's Deep Dish Pizza (I have to admit, I think I'm more of a Giordano's fan)
Photoshoot with the Rock'n'Roll McDonald's statues while waiting for our film tour bus
A gorgeous afternoon wandering around downtown by the river
We have already had a lot of visitors and are looking forward to a lot more. All in all, I am just so happy to call this city home again... for real this time!
beautiful smile:)
