Hello World

"Come and show me another city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning. Flinging magnetic curses amid the toil of piling job on job, here is a tall bold slugger set vivid against the little soft cities" -Chicago, by Carl Sandburg
This Sunday I will board a commuter train in South Bend and travel to Chicago for my cultural immersion. I will be studying the creative culture of artists, musicians, and writers in the city, as well as some of the history of this culture.
