Freedom

The past few weeks have been rough!  So much to do in so little time!  I promise to blog everything exciting that has happened in the past three or so weeks.  The past few weeks have included so much!

Do you ever just stop and think about how amazing some things are? This weekend has included a few of those moments. 

I honestly can't believe that I am living "on my own."  Yes, I do know that there are people still around me.  I have a roommate and my parents are paying.  Besides that, I can do whatever I want.  I still have responsibilites but I don't have to check in with anyone or worry about someone else caring about my schedule.  

This weekend I went downtown twice.  Once with my friend (more on that later) and once by myself.  It is weird to think that I can hop on the L and be downtown in 30 minutes.  I can literally go where ever I feel like.  

Today I had to do some shopping for gifts for my sisters.  I went downtown and found some things for them and just looked around the stores for myself.  I finished my homework early this morning and I had plenty of time on my hands.  

I think I went in 90% of the clothing stores in Water Tower Place.  It was nice shopping on my own and taking my time in different stores.  I love shopping with my friends but sometimes 

people don't want to spend as much time in some stores.  

I also went to Crumbs Bake Shop again.  This time I bought a Cookie Dough Cupcake.  It is very good! I expected cookie dough, but definitely still very good!  

I will be writing many more posts tonight and will be publishing them over the next week or so.
