Moving to the World of Butter - A Look at my New Apartment

Two years ago, I decided to leave the comforts of my moms house and make the move downtown to Chicago. It's interesting how quickly life can change. On a Monday I broke up with my boyfriend, the next day, Tuesday, I saw an old friend needed a roommate. That Wednesday I drove to the city to check out the space and signed the lease Saturday, which would allow me to move in 2 weeks later. My poor mother, she was so upset to see me move out. As a consolation prize, my grandma moved in... Poor Mom! LOL

Anyway, a year after living in River North at an awesome high rise with a pool, view, workout room, and more, I decided it was time for me to be on my own.  So I made the trip 10 blocks North to the Gold Coast. I left the comfy confines of my 1500 sq ft 2 bed/2 bath apartment, to a 750 sq ft studio with a wardrobe. 

Do not be fooled by these pictures. The wall color was not this good. It was actually the color of butter. Yes I said it, BUTTER. The super yellow, fake looking kind of butter too. UGH. And EVERYTHING was painted in this color, even the closets.

This color did not last very long!
