Hey everybody! I'm posting from CHICAGO! Chicago is so awsome! There was a long drive up here but it was well worth it. I saw some funny signs on the way up here. One said, "HEY YOU! Made you look!" (no joke) I saw lots and lots and lots of...corn. Yup. Pretty boring, especially since a few days ago we spent a long time shucking corn. Aw, shucks! I know, that was corny (LOL). Anyways, we're staying on the 12th floor of our hotel. The view is very cool. Chicago is great. There are actually people walking down the street! Don't see much of that in Bowling Green. We stopped at a stoplight and a whole mob of people passed us walking infront of the car. I think that there was more people crossing the street there than there is in all of Bowling Green! It's real nice and shady here since all of the buildings are blocking the sun. We walked over to Subway and had diner. It was cool. Yea, this guy was walking infront of us and he just about got hit by a car. He didn't read the walking signal I guess. He was talking on his cell phone, suprise. Well, we're going to go see the fireworks on the Navy Peir in a few. Hope you guys have a great day!

What have I been doing this summer? Absolutely nothing! That's right, nothing other than going to church and hanging with friends and breathing, eating(that's a must), and sleeping, etc. All the normal stuff. I feel so tired over the summer, which doesn't make any sense since I've been getting more sleep (or maybe that's the problem). I've been on here lately and have been watching this funny video (http://www.michounet.com/fatman/). I absolutely love it! I've had that song stuck in my head forever. The funny thing is that its in another language!
What's amazing is that I haven't practiced my saxophone for a whole month! That's out of the norm for me. I've been playing guitar and my fingers hurt really bad. I enjoy it though (playing guitar, not my fingers hurting).
It hurts me to say this so much but I actually am looking forward to going back to school. I know, I know, I didn't want to say it but I did. It's true though, as much as I don't want to admit it. I just get so bored over the summer. At least school gives me something to do. I also miss my friends and I'm looking forward to my little brother and friends at church being in high school too. It'll be different having a bunch of people that go to church with me at school!
I'm also looking forward to football starting up again. I always look forward to finding out how good/bad :( the Titans will be. Things look better with Vince Young on the team and some experience added on defense. One down side though, we lost Steve! :( He been the Titans ever since they've been in Tennessee. Oh well. I also look forward to beating some guys in fantasy football! :)
Oh, and I'm leaving for Chicago Friday! I've never been and I'm excited about taking a vacation and visiting a huge city. We're going to be there for about a week I think. Should be fun!
Wow. This is a long post. I don't think I've written this much since school's been out. Anyways, that's my summer. Have an awsome rest of the summer and have a great day!
