Wanderlust

An irony about being a 20-something: finally having the money to do things (remember in school when you could barely afford that dollar beer bingefest?!), but alas, you don’t really have the time. At least that’s how I feel. Even though I’m young and commitment free – no boyfriend (yay me!), no kids, no pets, no strings –…

The Scoop: Black Friday on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile
