Last night I arrived in Chicago around 8 p.m. to come visit my sister who goes to school here. It was my first time flying alone and I didn't realize how nervous I was until my Dad and younger sister left me before I went through security. Even though I had flown to and from Nicaragua last summer, I felt like I had no idea what I was doing, but I did it and somehow I found my gate and figured out when it was my turn to board. Unfortunately I was in the last group and it was open seating so I sat in the back of the plane by the bathrooms right next to a big smelly guy who slept the whole time. Once I landed in Chicago I had to navigate the Midway airport, which I think is about equal to the size of the rest of the city. I met my sister at baggage claim, even though I didn't check a bag. We rode the El with her friend Matt and arrived at her apartment sometime before 9. I had already met her roommates so it was pretty easy to be comfortable in the apartment. If I haven't lost you from boredom already, I'll go on to the next day.
This morning I woke up around 7 and went with my sister to her first class at 8. It was really interesting and I followed it pretty easily, despite how extremely tired I was. I went to her next couple of classes (I came on her busiest day), then we went out for lunch and she took me back to the apartment while she goes to the library to work on school stuff. So I'm here now and I'm going to take a nap! Bye.
