My last night in Chicago...
(actually Evanston but don't worry about the details) and it's been a great trip. On my arrival I expected to feel overwhelmed with Chicago, as I have felt towards other big cities I've visited
(definitely less than 5, again, just details). But Chicago felt different, a little easier to deal with, "livable" you might say: understandable downtown layout, actual fun things to do, surprisingly easy-to-learn transit system, reasonable prices
(on food and shopping that is, don't get me started on housing prices) and overall nice people. I even felt like I fit right in with my North Face coat, being that every-other person I saw was wearing something North Face.
So here is a list of the best moments in Chicago:
~Seeing myself as a giant mercury jellybean would
~Looking behind Gerhy's Pavillion
~Having the urge to slide down the side of a bridge
~Watching geese walk on ice/pretending I was in Antarctica
~Being on Davis street in Evanston
~Being able to say I've seen a Puffin
~And, the best moment during my trip? Having dinner and cocktails with my wonderful mom.

You know sometimes it is easier to deal with a big city when you have your mom with you. Whenever I travel with my mom I feel safer.
