Here is the travelling times in a nutshell:

*Departed from train station at 6:50am

*Took trolly to the Field Museum
*Arrived at Museum at 12:13pm
*Began walking around museum for about an hour
*Entered King Tut Exibition at 1:30pm
*Left Museum at 5:00pm
*Took bus to Canal street 5:15pm
*Walked to Grand Central Station
*Ate at McDonalds in the underground bazaar
*Entered waiting room for my train at 5:40pm
*Train departed at 6:00pm
*Arrived in Battle Creek MI around 11:15pm
*Took Bus to Flint MI (stopped at Lansing on the way) 1:25pm
*Drove back to hometown (not going to say) and arrived home at about 2:45am
I WAS SO TIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But it was really fun. The museum was everything I hoped it would be except I was VERY disapointed to find out that the King Tut mask was not on display. I was a victim to false advertising...A whole damn exibition on king tut and they didnt even have his mask. Most of the stuff was about his grandparents, and father before him as background info. Then it began about what little they knew about him. It was good, but I was still disapointed. Not to mention the entire trip I was holding ALL my things because I didnt know where to rent a locker to keep my things at.
I cant beleive how many cool places are in chicago! They had a BIG Macy's store (*sob* I couldnt shop there I had no money left....*sob*), and alot of the buildings were beautifully decorated for christmas and new years! I felt like a dork though in my un-fasional black and white sweater, jeans, and trenchcoat. I was on the 'white' side of chicago where everyone was stuckup and rich. Also where most of the homeless were.
Man, it was so cool....I need more sleep though...I'm still tired from it all....zzzzzzzzzzzz
