Day 2. Chicago: The Cheesecake Factory. Lincoln Park Zoo (ZooLights). Navy Pier (Winter Wonderfest & Centennial Wheel). [Freehand Chicago]

Confession here: I didn’t wake up until 1 pm. Looks like I am really tired.

For the past several weeks, I have been sort of on hiatus: school was a bit demanding and I didn’t get to write as much as I had hoped to. I did write a lot of essays for homework though, and maybe that’s why I avoided blogging so much. To make up for the lost posts, I have decided to take you guys along with my winter break trip! This is the first time for me to solo travel for more than two weeks, and I am so excited! Throughout the course of my trip, I will post everyday to share what I have been doing that day. In the next 24 days, I plan to visit around 10 states in the United States, and today, December 21st, 2018, marks my first day.
