Sweet Home [Illinois]
I'M HERE! Haha, it's been a great three days in the car, but I'm SO happy to be in Illinois. The house is...small. I really think that it is cute and quaint though too. The upstairs is where the three bedrooms and the one shower are, and the downstairs is where the living room, kitchen/dining room and entry room are. It's overall very nice. The backyard is overgrown, but will look good when it is taken care of. The wierd thing here is that there are no tall brick walls that signify privacy or ownership, only short decorative wooden fences, if anything, to show the property line. I think that it is very interesting...but, for people here, it is normal. I'll probably get pictures up eventually of everything, our home computer is up and running...but the internet isn't connecting.
My room is really cool...I have really cool magenta/dark brown sheets, and then I have a desk in here too. I'm sleeping on a futon, so it folds up into a couch...which I really like.
So, that's probably all that you want to hear about the house and my room...it's probably really boring. I don't know if there is much more for me to talk about...
Wait, (haha) so we went to downtown Naperville today. It was soo cool, there were people everywhere, it wasn't too hot for anything, and they had a COOKIE DOUGH shop!!!!!!!! It sold solely cookie dough and ice cream. And, the best part is that you can EAT the cookie dough RAW! Ohh man, I can walk there, and I'm gonna be there often!! We also had some of the most AMAZING pizza! I guess that if you are in the Chicago area/vicinity, the pizza is gonna be good! So, it was really cool to see all of that. OHH, and we saw a wedding, it was the most beautiful weddding that I've ever seen (we just walked by, so it wasn't like we attended it or anything) But, it was pretty.
Last thing...I tried to meet some of the neighbors today, but my method of sitting on top of the Uhaul and seeing if they would come to me...let's just say that it didn't work. So, we have to go get the bearded dragons (that the family who's house we are staying in own, but a neighbor was taking care of them) from one of the neighbors tomorrow, so I'll meet someone but then I might just go back to the Uhaul, and see if anyone comes to talk. Supposedly there are a lot of little kids here, but I've seen a lot of people my age...so I'm excited to get to know people. \
Mkay, that's all for now!!!
