    If it makes you feel any better, I love the Disney Channel. :)

    I have to say, your list was quite disappointing. The U.S. must have more to offer to you than wal-marts and a wide array of breakfast cereals...right? A couple more transition-easing things you may want to think about, many of which are chi-specific of course:

    an abundance of family and friends :), mexican street-food on clark, four distinct seasons (minus this year), the obamas, second city, a skyline that takes your breath away, etc. etc. etc.

    Mmm unfortunately, Chicago is not where I will be transitioning to, and it has certainly never been the cause of heartache, nor has it ever even inspired a "transition list." Indeed, Chicago is no transition - it's home and hands down, hands down my favorite city in the world - no convincing necessary, buddy. The problem is Houston, where (when you've been born and bred in a city like Chicago) it's hard to find anything to be excited about. When you're depressed, even a "disappointing" list like the one above is something to be elated about - and that's exactly the point. But don't worry Mexican food is definitely on the list (see #9 and #10) - Clark St or otherwise, London just doesn't hold a candle. And you're right - Obama is definitely a HUGE plus that's missing from the list!!
