I work at Futureworld North Merchandise, which is Gateway, Camera Center, Strollers, Giftstop, and Leave a Legacy. As part of my training, I have to learn to ride a segway! I'm so excited!
I live in Chatham, by the way. I love it here!
I have no help to give, but I just wanted to say that I go to the University of Illinois as well, and my roommate is a Music Ed major and she took Aural Skills this past semester and I NEVER heard the end of it. Sounds incredibly difficult. Good luck to your son!
I'd prefer some large city, like Chicago. That's all I can really say for now since I've never been to other cities like NYC, Boston, or Seattle. Right now I live right by Chicago, but I don't go there as often as I'd like.
I got French Women For All Seasons by Mireille Guiliano, "The Taming of the Shrew" by William Shakespeare, and "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by Shakespeare.
I gave my brother The Metamorphosis by Frank Kafka and my mom Wicked by Gregory Maguire.
