| Chicago | |||||||
| I love Chicago! It's beautiful and fun, and there's so much to see and do there. I wish I could live there, but I'll have to see where life takes me (I'd rather live in London and I've never even been there! I love the British!). While in Chicago I went to the Oprah Winfrey Show with my mom. The topic was updates on things that have disappeared from the headlines. She had two of the kids from Columbine on the show, Chandra Levy's parents via satellite, and a couple other things. Lauren Hutton was in the audience that day! For those of you who don't know who she is, she's an actress. Oprah stayed out there for about 15 or 20 mins after the show and talked to the audience. She was really down-to-earth. While walking on State Street with my dad on the way to the Sears Tower, we passed a crowd of people on the opposite side of the street and I heard a guy talking with a mic or something saying "autographs" and "no pictures" with a bunch of other meaningless stuff in between. We asked someone on the street who was over there, and the guy, who was about my dad's age, said, "Some rap guy. Usher or something." I could have stood in line and gotten an autograph, but since I'd been doing a lot of walking and there was a long line and I was with my dad (who doesn't even listen to music) AND I didn't know if I'd even have enough time if I were at the back of the line because I didn't know how long he'd be signing autographs, we just headed to the Sears Tower and on the way back I took pics of the sign on the door that said, "The store is closed today due to Usher's appearance" or something along those lines. The pictures turned out pretty good, and at some poing I'll probably make another photo page for them.. If you ever go to Chicago, eat at Bennigan's and Giordanno's (sp?) they both have really good food! |
