This weekend I:

It has been almost a year since my last post like this and I missed it....who would have guessed so much would have changed since I was writing that post in London? So crazy! 
Watched: Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood with my nephew
Listened: to people getting upset because our flight was delayed to Chicago 
Learned: that I can live far away from my family and still be a part of it
Ate: veryyyyyyy unheathly 
Read: Of Mice and Men (at least attempted to..it is dragging)
Drank: a peach green tea from Starbucks 
Thought: What will it be like when I go back to my Chicago life after time back home 
Wished: I could be in two places at once, at my new job and with my nephew in PGH
Realized: Just breathe and relax and everything will be better than if you freak out when something goes wrong
Bought: new earbuds in the airport because I lost mine :,(

Exploring: Lakeview

Hello, I am so glad to be all settled into my new Chicago neighborhood, Lakeview. It is a strange feeling to be walking the streets, knowing that I live here and I am not just visiting. In an attempt to let that feeling sink in, I took a walk around the area.

First off, Lakeview is BEAUTIFUL! Second, how do I live here? Haha, okay but seriously, I just want to walk down every street and take a picture of each building.


To just name a few things around me, there is Wrigley Field, Lake Shore Drive, and Belmont Harbor. Plus, there are tons of coffee shops, restaurants, and boutiques! The streets are always filled with people (even at night when I am trying to sleep, haha). 

Lastly, I love the green space and art that is incorporated into each street. There isn't a corner without something to look at and I really love that. 


That's all for now but I can't to explore more and share more beautiful neighborhoods with you!
