Well I am back in Chicago and all moved in to my new apartment! I absolutely love it here! For those who don't know, my school, Roosevelt University, finished building a new 32 story building in the middle of the Loop this past spring. One of the challenges of being a school in the middle of downtown Chicago is the lack of space. Roosevelt tore down an old residence hall and replaced it with the beautiful Wabash Building.
This new building has a dining hall, fitness area, lots of office space, new classrooms and labs, and the top 17 floors is a residence hall. This is my new home for the year. I'm an RA on the 16th floor. We've been in training for a week now, and I have loved it. I'm one of two graduate students working as an RA, so most of my co-workers are younger than me. What else is new? :-) Our team gets along really well, and I'm so excited to see what the year holds.
Here are some pictures of the inside of my apartment. Outside of training, I haven't been up to a whole lot yet. I'll update when things get a little more interesting!
Oh yeah, I did have a pretty awesome view of Lollapalooza! Here's a picture I took of the entrance before it started last week.
