There's some sort of community on Goethe in Chicago, between Dearborn and Clark. I have no idea what it is exactly, but it's a gated community. Anyway, since it's a gated community, obviously, they have a guard in the front. At the beginning of my internship I passed by there and didn't know it was a gated community or that there was a guard, so the person in the wall surprised me. Anyway, I decided to wave hello, and since that day, every morning, instead of taking the bus on Schiller and Clark, I walk down to Goethe and pass by the guard, wave hello, and he waves back, it's like part of my morning routine. Now I'm upset because it's my last week, and I realized that next week he's going to be wondering where I am. Hopefully, he'll be there when I come back in the summer and we can renew our morning routine.

It's always nice to spread a smile.
