Mornings in Chicago

Over the weekend I went to Chicago very early in the morning, we are talking 3:00 A.M. early, and let me tell you what, it is an awesome experience to be in a major city when it is completely dead. The tall buildings around you, complete silence, the air is still, maybe even smells kind of nice. It’s the complete opposite of what it is during the day and that’s why it’s such a cool experience. Anyways I went with Mullen for one morning and we just drove around, but when we got back Naldi really wanted to go. We left Sunday morning at 2:30 we leave campus and stop to get a good ol’ five hour energy drink to keep me awake (I’m driving) and drove off to Chicago on an empty highway 57. We parked by the parks and walked around for a couple of hours taking random pictures, relieving ourselves in the bushes, and trying to find a way onto the statue in the middle of the fountain. We finally headed over to the yacht club where we watched a B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L sunrise, a great way to top off a good morning. I did not get much sleep over the weekend but it was so worth it. Next weekend my dad flies in on Saturday night so we can go to the BMW championship on Sunday. It will be my first time going to a PGA event and I am soooo stoked to see Tiger Woods, Woods by three strokes on the field is my prediction. Saturday night I’m bringing my dad to Gino’s East in Chicago, it is the best pizza I have ever had and hopefully he agrees.

I’m just going to say it, AT&T is awful. I barely get service anywhere on campus where as my Verizon friends have 3-4 bars. It was even bad when I was at home in my basement, I couldn’t take a phone call down there so I would always have to run upstairs. Anyways, if you try and call me at school consider yourself lucky if I pick up and answer.




I'm out
