chicagoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


Chicago to Minnesota
So as soon as we got to chicago, we drove to alex’s cousin, whose name is tommy, restaurant. Tommy valet parked the car and then we had the nicest dinner in all of time. we had an appetizer and cocktails! Only things that adults have! And it was all free!! There is nothing better than a free meal to a college student, and I am still considering us college students, because tommy said that we are all grouped into the college student category. I’ll allow it. Then we walked around in wicker park which is so wild and trendy and nice. One lady was walking down the street, and alex was like “ is that a hooker?” and I was like “no she is just trendy”. Very confusing  wardrobes for country bumpkins like ourselves. Then we went into American apparel and wondered why colorful spandex and sweatshirts were so expensive. We also talked about hipsters and wondered why they have to wear weird shit, and they all wear the same weird shit, which makes them th e same, which is the opposite of what a hipster wants. I am a hipster for wearing my yellow shoes around, no one in the world has those. Too trendy.

Then the next day we went into Chicago, with the help of tommy, alex’s cousin, who was the best tour guide in all of tour guide history, he knew more about my favorite water building than I did, and I love buildings. He told us where to go to the bean, so that was our number one priority. We ate pizza that was deep dish and is more like a lactoseintolerants worst nightmare, but delicious as hell. Then we went to a fountain which alex said, in alex voice “guys, this fountain shoots 100 stories high!!!”  alex, if that was the case it would be about the height of the world trade center, and the water pressure needed to power that fountain would be redonkulous. Then we found the bean. There was a model there who weighed probably 50 pounds. I wanted to give her a hamburger. I’ve never realized how skinny they are in real life. Then we went to my favorite building in all of time! the aqua building. It is new skyscraper in Chicago that has concrete plates in circular shapes that make it look super duper sweet!

cheese for days

trendy as hell

 Then Justin met us and we went for sushi at his old restaurant, I’ve only ever eaten bison sushi, so it was super duper and it had raw fish and I actually didn’t throw up!
Then we went to justin’s friends house and hung out, which gave us hope for the afterlife (aka after college) because all graduates are bonded together due to our love of alcoholic beverages and willingness to cut off an arm to go back to college. This kid was all knowing about lsd, getting arrested, and editing movie scripts, 3 things we knew all about. Wanting to fit in to our surroundings, we pretended we knew what in the heck he was talking about. We didn’t.  side note. We are about to win the license plate game, we only have 5 states left.


my favorite building in all fo time!
Then we went home and woke up and went to dunkin donuts where they only gave us 2 ketchups/breakfast sandwich, had a 30 minute seating limit, and had to be buzzed into the bathroom. It was also hot as balls. We were sweating. And then I thought, this is not India people. Then after I ate a breakfast sandwich, I wanted nothing more than chocolate ice cream, which is unusual because I hate chocolate ice cream, however, it may or maynot have been my time of the month. Conveniently the dunkin donuts was also a baskin robbins! Wow! 





So then I got chocolate ice cream but it took this man, whose name was mohammed, 6.3 minutes to check me out. He pressed 107 buttons, which is weird because I got a childs size cup of chocolate ice cream. Then alex came out of the bath room and I told her to watch our stuff, which immediately she did not listen to and she was like “ ICE CREAM!’” Then I had to raise my voice and I was like no watch our stuff, because there was a snatcher lurking, I saw him. Then she went over and watched out stuff.
