I learned many things while in this class and over came a few of my fears.
For an example I went on the Willis tower and I'm afraid of heights.
I've been moving back and forth from Chicago and Michigan since I was little and I learned I actually really love the city.
I plan on going to college there, maybe DePaul? It looked like an amazing school.
I learned that Chicago is made up of little towns; Lincoln Park, Hyde Park, Pilsen, The Loop, etc.
I'd either live back in Lincoln Park or The Loop.
