| Besides the Watertower, I really like this building. |
After reading a few article about Workaholics, I had to take a step back to evaluate my naughty habit of trying to keep busy almost all of the time. Yes, the first time I tried to relax during a month break from work and being officially done with school I had a panic attack. Lame, right?
Even an old teacher had asked why I wasn't taking a year off to do practically nothing after college. And all I could think of was 'that is bizarre... why would I do that?' You do that before you graduate, then you bust your ass to try to pay off everything.
But...did I miss a memo or something?

| Fall lip colour test |
So, on Wednesday, I decided to just chill in downtown Chicago. I checked out the WaterTower mall first after a quick lunch. Katie wanted me to try a purple/lilac lip shade from Smashbox. After trying various purple shades, I settled on a natural shade, "Sugar Cane". I might also see what the fuss is about non drugstore make ups!
A doorman/security guard wanted me to come into the jewelry
shoppe that was near Oak Street Beach.
Some of the pieces were beautiful, and their main motif is the quatrefoil for good luck, prosperity, health, and love. I favored the pieces with black onyx.

| Bountiful clovers. |
I grabbed their catalog to check out their pieces while I am at home.
I really liked their bag. I am a sucker for nice shopping bag design.

| Rather be doing some sort of work. LOL |

| Human Gazing |
As I buried my feet in the cool sand, I gazed off into the sky or watch kids play catch with a football.
I could get used to this... I think.

| Stopped here for a little Italian treat. |

Being busy (or "busy") all the time isn't a good thing. You are most likely wasting energy and maybe just doing filler if you can't stand doing-nothing-at-all time. I know from experience. Its nice to take a break every once in a while and recharge and cool down.
