You can't be serious...

Here's the bombshell folks: I just moved to Chicago. It's amazing. Don't get me wrong, I loved Butler, and I especially loved all the people I met, but Indianapolis just wasn't for me. Ever since I got back from El Salvador (check previous post) I've been couchsurfing a.k.a. living the dream, but enough is enough. School is now back in session, and I had been looking for apartments in Chicago, then out of the blue I got a response from a great listing. One thing led to another, and after a couple phone calls and a video chat, the dude said I was perfect. He found an amazing apartment in Logan Square, and needed a roommate until his fianceé moves in next summer. I was in disbelief, but every day brought more emails that confirmed that he actually wanted to live with me, and had space in his rental truck to pick me up and bring all my junk along with him. I still can't believe it worked out so well. His name is, get this, Nathan Cool. No joke. It's legit. And it's true. He's super nice, super chill, and we instantly got along great. Now I'm in a gorgeous apartment, surrounded by the city life I have been missing for years, ready to explore and hunt for jobs. We spent our day driving/talking/sharing stories, followed by lugging all of our crap up four flights of stairs, and then eating (what else) deepdish pizza. What a day. We don't have internet just yet, so for now I'm stealing someone else's wireless. Oh yeah, here's my address:
2812 N Whipple Street, Apt 3
Chicago, IL
60618
I'll put up some pictures real soon.
One last thing: seeing as I am no longer in Indianapolis, I have to retire one of my favorite titles, "Indianapolanus." I will be switching over to "Adamidwest" pretty soon, unless someone comes up with a better name. Don't worry, I'll make the transition easy as π
