DAY 11: Downtown Chicago and The American Girl Store

The day was spent roaming around downtown Chicago along Michigan Avenue and having lunch at Goodlife located at the Water Tower with Tito Razil. I left the house wearing shorts and a huge jacket, though i wish i wore pants! It was so Fuckin' cold downtown compared to here in Westmont! Though Nay already warned me about the sudden weather changes downtown, of course knowing me, i wouldn't listen and just say "No it's not".. now i got a taste of my hardheadedness.. if there's such word. Anyway, during our stroll downtown we encountered this store called "The American Girl Store", so far this has been the weirdest store i've ever been in. From the moment i stepped inside, i knew i was lost and there was something wrong. The 3 storey store was for dolls.. i'm not exaggerating, the store was for dolls.. Doll Cafe, Doll Hair salon and the weirdest.. Doll Hospital where there was an actual emegency room! HOLY SHIT!! talk about doll obsession, i could still remember my dad's expression "ANO BA YAN! THE THINGS PEOPLE DO TO EARN MONEY! AND IT ACTUALLY WORKS!" i was so surprised to actually see people obsess with their dolls as if they were their kids! yeah, there were kids on the store but majority of the people there were middle aged ladies and old women.. sheesh!! anyway, kanya kanyang trip lang naman yan eh!

Tomorrow, it's Sieg's and Aby's last day here in the states since Aby's got summer classes and Sieg's got Thesis. How i wish i was heading home with them. It's getting pretty lonely here, especially when you know you're only a few hundred miles away from the person you want to hang with.. at least back home i'll be busy with the play and all, and i wouldn't be thinking of the Girl that much... hay.. buhay.. anyways, what else is there?!

Temperature:
Around 10 downtown plus below 10 winds.. (it would be ok if i wasn't wearing shorts)
