Off to Tokyo!

As of now I am still in Chicago. On the plane. They are trying to fix the heating and A/C.  This airline SSSUUUCCKKSSS. 45 minutes late and counting. People are getting off the plane to get food. Shame on you UNITED AIRLINES and your baggage fees and rude employees. Typing from my phone sorry about the format and since I'm complaining ill just add that there isn't a USB port to charge my phone or laptop. Oh wait! It's been solved! Mazel.
