This is my public journal while I'm in Chicago until May. I look forward to sharing the details of all of my new experiences while I'm in this fantastic city!

Sunday..truly a day of rest.

We all managed to sleep in a little bit on Sunday. Kate and Pam took another trip to target to get more of those wire cubicle things while Ang and her friend, Joel, explored the walk by the lake as I slept in until 2pm. When I woke up Joel had muffins and fruit on the table for us! What a nice guy! Sunday afternoon I put up some fabric to act as curtains and got organized a little more. I made lattees for everyone and we walked down to Jewel once again to get more food. We made pizza in our gas oven..which we found out that we have to light before we turn on the gas (had a little incident with leaving the gas on and people were knocking at our door because of the smell). None of us have ever worked with a gas oven before.
In the evening we took a walk around the apartment building and saw how other people had their rooms set up. We also managed to trade some of our nasty old pictures for some nicer ones from other apartments...
Until we get a fourth bed, I'm still sleeping in the crack between Kate and Ang. So far no troubles with that :)
