i live in des plaines, not crazy far from roselle....good news is you are really only about 35 minutes from downtown if you are good on traffic...are you renting a car....as for stuff to do in roselle....haha...i don't think you are going to find anything too unique....most of the good stuff is in the city....you could travel up north a little more and go to woodfield (rated as a #1 destination for chicago, have no idea why)....it's just a HUGE mall with tons of restaurants, movie theaters, etc.....

let me know if you want more info...
