Thanksgiving in Chicago

Been a long time since I last blog. Thats because I have been out of town for some time. For thanksgiving break, I went up to Chicago with my friends here. Chicago is a really nice place in a sense that it is more structured and the city is pretty clean which is unlike NY where the subway smells like public toilet. Just like in NY, there will be a mega sale statewide on the friday after thanksgiving. They call it "Black Friday" and some of the shops even started business when the clock strike 12. Of course, ZH here is not so crazy to join in all the squeezing and buying at midnight.

Some of the main attractions of Chicago includes Lake Michigan and view from the top of John Hancock Tower. OMG, the view was breathtaking.

Upon typing this post, I just realise that this is the second time this year that I have been to some famous tall buiding and admire the scenery from the top. First was Equinox, next is John Hancock. Next stop will be to conquer the world famous Empire State Building.

Lastly, the hottest and the best experience in Chicago is the ORIGINAL COYOTE UGLY. This was where the movie was shot and seriously, there were lotsa hot babes dancing on the bar tops. Sometimes, some hot bar waitress will give you a free shot. All you need to do is go to the bar counter and open your mouth and they will pour it in your mouth plus a sexy dance from them on the bar top. Of course, ZH will not let such a good opportunity go to waste.

Some guy got lucky

Of course, being a big finance geek here, I have definitely been to CBOT. It was really majestic and I will show it to fellow finance geeks when I get back home. Shall not bore the rest of the people who probably won't know what is CBOT anyway.
