Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States

Currently I'm in my Junior year at Moody Bible Institute in downtown Chicago. I am finishing up my degree in Elementary Education. The program is pretty much the hardest elementary ed program you could imagine, but I love it a lot because it's the only place I know of that you can be a Bible and El Ed major at the same time. We work really hard to that end, but it is very cool to be some of the first people to learn an integrative philosophy of Christian education. I can't wait to start practicing all this; and the countdown is on, because in a little over a year I will be doing full time student teaching.

Easter Weekend:

3:30am It turns out Brittney's flight was delayed; finally she arrives!

10:30am-6:00pm The longest and most random walking tour of Chicago ever to happen, which is led by yours truly.

Brittney and I took this photo in a giant silver bean. You might think I am joking, but I am not, the big bean is Chicago's newest landmark. Why is it here? No one really knows, but this is what you do in it; you take stupid pictures of yourself.

That was a cute way to set up you post. I love looking at pictures! You should have seen if maybe that giant silver bean was really filled with little jelly beans inside. I'll bet that's it.

That amazing landmark sounds like the brainchild of a really bored guy. I wonder how he beat me to it?
