Me and Dylan on the Skydeck in Chicago |
So very unfortunately on Dylan's last day here before leaving for Illinois, he decided to bring the laptop with him. Of course he definitely needed it for studying more than I needed it for blogging, Pinterest, and Facebook, but alas, I was very sad without it!
Dylan was home for his midterm break last weekend, so he brought the laptop home for me now that his tests are done.
Like I said above, Dylan passed all of his tests. I'm very proud of him and how hard he has been working! He really dedicated himself to exceeding in class and passing these tests. His last two weeks are spent doing fieldwork which I think he will find much more enjoyable.
I went down to visit the first weekend, and we laid low for the most part- trying to save money between paychecks! We found a local bar in Tinley Park - Teehan's - that quickly became our favorite hang out! Turns out my parents used to hang out their when they were younger, too. I spent the second weekend at home, and went back down the third weekend. We went into Chicago for St. Patty's Day and went to the Sears Tower Skydeck. The fourth weekend Dylan came home secretly without telling any of his friends and family- so it was wonderful to have that 'alone time' uninterrupted. He was home last weekend for his 'midterm break', and now we are debating what to do this weekend - will I go down there or will he come home? We are leaning towards him coming home because it is the cheaper option- he can ride home for free with a friend from class!
I'm happy to have my laptop back so I can start posting about what I'm up to while I'm alone! My next project is a spring wreath for my friend Karissa's bridal shower.
