Although it feels great to be back in Austin, winter break went by super fast because I got to spend a week in Chicago with four of my zeta sisters: Alexia Phipps, Bianca Morrison, Tara Woolheater, and Kate Hanna.
We arrived to the windy city late at night on December 28th and were greeted with famous Chicago deep-dish pizza. With our stomachs stuffed we went and got some sleep for the big day we had planned. The next morning, we put on multiple layers of clothes, coats, hats, scarves, and gloves and took a train into downtown Chicago. We walked up and down Michigan avenue stopping in the huge malls and department stores and, of course, the Hershey’s chocolate factory. We ended the day with a giant Chicago hotdog, which was worth every bite. The next day we saw the Shedd Aquarium and walked through Millennium Park. Although it was freezing we stayed outside most of the day to enjoy the amazing buildings and Chicago scenery. Finally it was New Years Eve, which we spent in Lincoln Park. It felt so great to welcome 2014 with four of my best friends in one of my favorite cities. With a bittersweet goodbye, we finally returned to the warmer temperatures of Texas with incredible memories that won't be forgotten.
