Chicago- day 2

So this is my second day in Chicago and it has been packed with things to do and learning new people. I have really enjoyed meeting the group and hanging out with them. Most of our day today was spent making a group covenant as to how we want to spend our time here. We also have had many meetings and spent quite a bit of time exploring the city and using the public transportation. Today we went to Chinatown and had REAL chinese food and not the Chinese-American stuff that most Chinese restaurants serve. We had a lesson on map reading, safety and learning about each other. Everyone is commited to the group and I am excited to see how things will develop. I must admit Chicago is absolutely gorgous though the neighborhood I live in is different in the day then in the night but as long as I use common sense and remember a few safety rules I should be fine. I have enjoyed these times with the group and look forward to more. I think the challenge will be good and it will show me whether my calling is really missions or not. I am ready for the year though I don't know what it will hold for me. We also have some free time to do what we want in the evenings. I gotta say lots of laughter takes place though.
