a year in review: summer

• I graduated from the University of Iowa!
• I celebrated my graduation with a party at home with everyone that I loved
• We got a new puppy named Hayley. Same kind of dog as Comet and she made our house feel normal again
• I moved to Chicago with my boyfriend
• I made the decision that I was not going to be a teacher (for now)
• My anxiety started to get a lot better
• I took advantage of Chicago in the summer and went to street festivals, cubs games, and Lollapolooza
• I got my first grown up job! An entry level sales position at a huge company on Michigan Avenue!
• I started to meet a lot of new friends in the city and establish a core group of friends here
• I said goodbye to my best friend Claire as she is spending the next year in Italy
• I got a new car, a white Volkswagen Tiguan that I love
