Now that I'm finally back in Los Angeles and settled in my new place, I can reflect on the best things I did in the last few months I had back in Chicago, which was considered my last summer vacation.
I had the amazing opportunity to drive across the country with my older sister, Lexi, at the end of June. We made our way through Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, and finally stopped in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. The west coast was even more beautiful than I could have imagined.
The drive was long but well worth the memories. After being home and relaxing for a few weeks, I was able to get together with my friend Amber to do my SUGAR BABES post, which was a blast. Mid-July I crossed something off my bucket list... I got to feed giraffes! They're my favorite animal, so when my sister mentioned that it was an event at the Milwaukee Zoo to my boyfriend and I, we made sure to find time to go. The whole day was an absolute blast, but the giraffes were the cherry on top.

 I'm in love. |
The first week of August was Lollapalooza and my sister and I had tickets to the first two days. It was a weekend filled with good friends, good food, and great music. We agreed that our favorite act of the weekend was CHVRCHES, as it was a super fun show and their singer is like, the cutest girl in the world. We also managed to see artists like The Glitch Mob, Eminem, Zedd, Martin Garrix, The Head and the Heart, and Outkast!

Fast forward to the end of September and one of my best friends, Lee (velvetcloouds) came to Chicago from LA for a week! We spent a day in downtown Chicago exploring Millennium Park. I've made a mini post with all the pictures here > #thebean.
The last week went by too fast. Not enough time for all my goodbyes, and no amount of time could make me ready for my big move. Because my boyfriend is seriously the best (no, seriously), he found a farm where you can feed giraffes! So we got to do that twice this summer. I'm the luckiest girl...

| best. day. ever. |
A few days later, I flew out to LAX to move into my new place in Studio City. It's been a stressful week, but I'm finally settled in and I feel right at home. I have so many things planned for myself that I'm excited to share with you guys. This fall is already off to a great start, I can't wait to see what the rest of the year has in store.
