Summer
June 3, 2009 – 3:54 pmSo I’m spending summer in the north. At least, it’s not as hot as it would have normally been, since sometimes these days we’ve had to wear jackets outside. Was at Michigan for a week, where I basically spent all my time indoors in front of the computer. Then went to Chicago, supposedly. I actually haven’t been inside the city proper, besides the initial arrival at Union Station. Too cold, too lazy, and the rest of the same old excuses. But of course, some time I’ll have to go, perhaps during the weekend.
Distant view of Chicago from the bus.
Distant view (maybe not so distant) of Northwestern University’s campus. From the park around it. Not exactly sure where I am.
Rocks at the park, where you can paint your own rock. I think it’s overlooking Lake Michigan if I’m not mistaken.
After almost a year, I finally had a chance to drink a Starbucks coffee. Yes, I never tried it because 1. I’m too frugal. and 2. I don’t drink coffee. But since my hosts have a gift card, why not? I got a caramel frappuccino.
Oh btw, can you tell which pictures were taken with a proper camera and which were with a crappy 1.3 megapixel camera phone? Sadly, I can’t, not when the pictures are so teeny (but of course, I know which is which. I just can’t tell if they weren’t my pictures).
