About Me

i work 40 hours a week
am taking 5 classes this semester
trying to graduate in may
trying to plan a wedding for june
trying to move to chicago in july
go to the gym three times a week
spend a few minutes with my fiancee a week??...
aaaaand yeah, that's pretty much my life right now. haha, bet you're jealous, right???
by the way, i don't care if people request to add me without sending a message. but just note that if you don't either a) display conservative/libertarian stuff, b) live in chicago, c) know me in real life, d) are a cubs, bears, or bulls fan, or e) are getting married and want to gush about it together, then don't expect me to accept your friends request. oh, and if i don't know you and you have any type of liberal propaganda OR anything sparkly on your page, you will automatically be denied. :-D
Lauren will be in Chicago April 11th-13th to apartment hunt...and will have some spare time in the evenings...hit me up for some good times!!

My Interests

being a couch potato, watching the cubs and the bears tear it up during their respective seasons, being outside, soaking up the sun, rollerblading, bike riding, talking, listening to music, politics, arguing politics, and reading about politics...
