In Chicago!! - Kelly

Well, I made it to Chicago! I am so happy to be here and to be doing something with my new job. I absolutely LOVE the people I'm going to be working with- I spent a large portion of the afternoon laughing. Also, I love the fact that I was absolutely put to work as soon as I got here.

Something interesting I've noticed since getting here- I get kind of mad/mean when I feel like I don't know what's going on. Not that I was mean to anyone today, but I don't like feeling like I'm unsure of things and that can make me get a little short tempered. I'm just going to have to embrace the fact that I'm new to living in Chicago, I don't know where I'm going, I don't know the public transportation systems, and that is okay! Just roll with it, right? That's part of the fun! (PS- thank you Brady for being my own personal GPS while I was going to the office today!)

All in all I'm so happy to FINALLY be here (even in the pouring down rain!). I can't wait to look for apartments on Monday and to really get to work in the next few weeks.

Yay Chicago!!

  1. Okay, two things:

    1) You'll figure out your way around really fast, I bet. No worries.

    2) Ha! Welcome back to the midwest suckah! Here is the weather you've been escaping for the past two years!

    But, I kind of like it. Suffering through rain, snow, freezing, and scorching temperatures unites us Chicagoans and just adds to the fun of surviving in a big city. Seriously, you'll love it. Seriously...
