David Looks Up His Crush

And when you're on the train tracks, you can, if it's a clear day, you can see the city, whatever. It's really easy to get to. So when we were in Vernon Hills, we didn't really go down to the city that much, but my sister would go pretty frequently because they were so close. And so she has this thing called Senior Sunrise and on the last day of school, it's a couple hours long. So the night before, they all take the train down to the city and they spend all night together. They bring a blanket and they go sit at, it's called Concrete Beach. Like right on Lake Michigan. And they all, they stay up all night talking, hanging, probably drinking, whatever. And they watch the sunrise and then they come back for school the last day of school. Yeah. Like hungover, drunk, exhausted. And they do their last 3 hours of school. But it's like this big bonding moment that they do.
