This past month has been one of the most hectic work-months of the three years I've been at my company (which is why I've been a little MIA on the blog). I was put on a global project, which was a great opportunity, but took up so many hours. There were a couple weeks where my average workday was 13 hours - crazy! I will say, that just made the weekends that much sweeter. I've now been in my new apartment for about a month and a half and am feeling more and more settled. I bought some new furniture, unpacked the rest of my boxes, and made this place my home. When I wasn't working or decorating, I was spending time with my friends and family, trying to enjoy the most of this very strange Chicago summer. I had a childhood friend visit for a couple weeks, tried new bars, spent time in Grant Park, had multiple girls' nights, and started watching all the teen shows/movies I could find on Netflix. Take a look at August through the lens of my camera below.
