Chi-town.

Today was our first day off since training and since we have another week in Indiana, many people just stayed around here for the weekend. This morning at 9:50 AM me and around 10 people from the team got on the train from Chesterton to spend the day in Chicago. It's about an hour ride. We sat in the seats that faced backwards. My body didn't enjoy that. But I didn't look out the window and just made jokes about Seinfeld and how I could think of countless train puns. Finally, we got there. And I traveled forwards as we made our way to Millennium park and that big giant reflective legume. Also, there's a giant fountain where giant faces squirt water on my Chacos and little children run around and splash water at me. It was really hot, so I gladly got splashed as the happy children ran by. Basically, the rest of the day we spent walking and eating and walking and eating again and walking while eating and eating while walking. We had amazing Chicago hot dogs- with pickles! And we went on the Ferris wheel at navy pier. I tried to spit on people as they walked by but the wind just picked up my saliva and it flew out into the bay. Also, did I mention that everyone was instagram-ing everything? Like "Hey let's go get Fro-yo!" "Hold on, I gotta instagram this upside down sepia toned picture of this crack in the sidewalk." But the whole day was hilarious. And my stomach hurt from laughing. And probably also because we ate everything from pickles to cheese and caramel popcorn. Also, the train station was full of people dressed as zombies.

So I guess you could say that place was pretty dead.

I love my life.
