wandering @ Chicago airport for 23 hrs

Aug 24

I made it, I can’t believe it, haha, I really stayed here going nowhere in tis 23 hrs!

From Aug 23 1pm, waited n waited n waited: fm departure floor, switched to arrival floor; fm one spot, switched to another spot; fm taking naps, switched to humming camp songs, switched to having food, switched to watching “Sex & e City”, switched to reviewing pics of tis summer………finally it reached 7pm, “y do I hv to go thro all of tis?” I asked myself. Right, y? just cos dun wanna waste US$30 for accommodation? Cos dun wanna carry e super heavy suitcase ard? Well, when I found tat I earned so much tis summer, I just needed to spend a tiny amt then I could sleep gd n no need to wandering ard here for 1 whole day, I really had a crush to go for it. However, when I realized tat it was already 7pm, it would take an hr to take e subway to e hostel, n Chicago downtown closed at 8, all I could do would just check in n go to bed?! Morning get up n go all e way back e airport to catch e plane?? No way, I wouldn’t wanna spend $ to do tat, including being a “bitter force”?. The most important thing was, I had already made sure tat e airport wouldn’t close at nite, I started looking for a nice spot to sleep. ^^

Another crazy thing I did was I was sleeping super comfy. Although e lights were super bright, e announcements were super frequent n loud, I made sure tat my luggage r safely tied n just went straight to sleep. There were so many black guys accompanying me, half of em were obviously not tourists here, they carried no luggage at all. Well, I dun care, at least I wasn’t e only one laying straight on e seats! However, e AC was super cold, I kept waking up every hr, even thou I took out my sweatshirt to wear already (my warmest coat I had in my suitcase!). I suddenly had a thought: Although I m cold, I wouldn’t be tat crazy to take out my sleeping bag n sleep in it!........... hold on, y not?? WOW, then I really did it, I opened my suitcase n took out my sleeping bag, n set it nicely on e seats!! Haha, can’t believe I really did tis, an Asian gal slept comfy at e US airport! But I was also glad tat I did it at 4am, so I could finally hv a nice long warm sleep till 730am!!

So that’s what happened in e past 20 hrs, 3 more hrs to get on plane, I believe it wouldn’t be tat hard to pass la, writing tis blog already spent 1/2 hr, I can also review pics, watch “Sex & e City”, haha!!

Bless OD get on plane smoothly n hv a nice trip in Korea!! =)
