New life?

I believe we all get to that point in our lives where we have to truly decide where we want to go, who we want to be, what we want in life. As I come up to my 24th birthday and recall the last 6 months of losing my job, deciding to return to the schooling field to finish my graduate degree, and deciding it is time to become an adult I figured maybe, just maybe, I needed a new place to start over.

I have been a suburban raised girl for all of the years I've had on this earth. I lived in the suburbs of Chicago and any other large city that I was around. Always a fan of the loud noise of the cities, but just not ready to take the plunge. Not knowing what to expect or what I could take from the experience of big city living I tended to avoid the desire to move. After the past few months of riding the highs and lows of life (which by the way suck) I finally decided to take the jump, why not I tell myself I won't be getting any younger and I am at my prime to take any chances now and bounce back from any downfalls I may have.

I recently decided on a place in the Wicker Park neighborhood of Chicago, a younger area full of shops and restaurants and bars. All the delights in one area, close to transportation and downtown Chicago and a bus ride from the beach. Here in my Windy City Living blog I will share the ups and downs of living in one of the largest cites in the United States.

My move starts this weekend keys will be obtained Friday. Moving is always an experience....
