Happy 2014!!!
We rang in our New Year at my friend Jackie’s house party in Wrigleyville and it was absolutely perfect. It was the type of New Year’s with no expectations, just that we would be ringing it in with some of our favorite people in a city we love to visit.
On New Year’s Day, a group of us that had been at the party the night before met for brunch and the turnout was amazing. At one point there were almost 30 of us there and all of us were good friends from Purdue! Due to the snow storms in Chicago that day, none of us really had any plans to go anywhere or do anything so we spent most of the day together at a few pubs throughout the city, watching football and enjoying each others company. We all commented how awesome it was to see each other. It was almost like college again and for once we were all together just because. For me, this was the best New Year’s I’ve had in recent memory and it made me realize how much I love and miss my friends. I’m really looking forward to seeing more of them when we move home next year!
Had the best time. Couldn't ask for a better way to ring in the new year. :)
